12 * Simple-Framebuffer support for x86 systems
13 * Create a platform-device for any available boot framebuffer. The
14 * simple-framebuffer platform device is already available on DT systems, so
15 * this module parses the global "screen_info" object and creates a suitable
16 * platform device compatible with the "simple-framebuffer" DT object. If
17 * the framebuffer is incompatible, we instead create a legacy
18 * "vesa-framebuffer", "efi-framebuffer" or "platform-framebuffer" device and
19 * pass the screen_info as platform_data. This allows legacy drivers
20 * to pick these devices up without messing with simple-framebuffer drivers.
21 * The global "screen_info" is still valid at all times.
22 *
23 * If CONFIG_X86_SYSFB is not selected, we never register "simple-framebuffer"
24 * platform devices, but only use legacy framebuffer devices for
25 * backwards compatibility.
26 *
27 * TODO: We set the dev_id field of all platform-devices to 0. This allows
28 * other x86 OF/DT parsers to create such devices, too. However, they must
29 * start at offset 1 for this to work.
