Hi,
and removes a large amount of framebuffer code from these drivers. For bochs, a problem was reported where the driver could not display the console because it was pinned in system memory. [1] The patch set fixes this bug by converting bochs to use the shadow fb.
So, bochs in 5.3-rcX is broken, and patches 1+2+3+5 of this series unbreak it. Series already landed in drm-misc-next, but that doesn't help bochs in 5.3.
What is the usual way to handle this? Just cherry-pick the four patches into drm-misc-fixes and push?
Best would be to put the patches into -fixes from the start.
Sure, but that ship is sailed in this case.
Cherry pick works too, if it's not too invasive.
All 4 patches are clean cherry-picks, so I did that.
thanks, Gerd
