This patch changes DRM clients to not map the buffer by default. The buffer, like any buffer object, should be mapped and unmapped when needed. An unmapped buffer object can be evicted to system memory and does not consume video ram until displayed. This allows to use generic fbdev emulation with drivers for low-memory devices, such as ast and mgag200. This change affects the generic framebuffer

Generic framebuffer emulation uses a shadow buffer for framebuffers with dirty() function. If drivers want to use the shadow FB without such a function, they can now set prefer_shadow or prefer_shadow_fbdev in their mode_config structures. The former flag is exported to userspace, the latter flag is fbdev-only. Signed-off-by: Thomas Zimmermann <tzimmermann at suse.de> ---

Kernel DRM clients now store their framebuffer address in an instance of struct dma_buf_map. Depending on the buffer's location, the address refers to system or I/O memory. Callers of drm_client_buffer_vmap() receive a copy of the value in the call's supplied arguments. It can be accessed and modified with dma_buf_map interfaces.

DRM client buffers are permanently mapped throughout their lifetime. This prevents us from using generic framebuffer emulation for devices with small dedicated video memory, such as ast or mgag200. With fb buffers permanently mapped, such devices often won't have enough space left to display other content (e.g., X11). This patch set introduces unmappable DRM client buffers for framebuffer
