This module displays a user friendly message when a kernel panic occurs. It currently doesn't contain any debug information, but that can be added later. v2 * Use get_scanout_buffer() instead of the drm client API. (Thomas Zimmermann) * Add the panic reason to the panic message (Nerdopolis) * Add an exclamation mark (Nerdopolis) v3 * Rework the drawing functions, to write the pixels line by line and to use the drm conversion helper to support other formats. (Thomas Zimmermann) v4 * Use drm_fb_r1_to_32bit for fonts (Thomas Zimmermann) * Remove the default y to DRM_PANIC config option (Thomas Zimmermann) * Add foreground/background color config option * Fix the bottom lines not painted if the framebuffer height is not a multiple of the font height. * Automatically register the device to drm_panic, if the function get_scanout_buffer exists. (Thomas Zimmermann) v5 * Change the drawing API, use drm_fb_blit_from_r1() to draw the font. * Also add drm_fb_fill() to fill area with background color. * Add draw_pixel_xy() API for drivers that can't provide a linear buffer. * Add a flush() callback for drivers that needs to synchronize the buffer. * Add a void *private field, so drivers can pass private data to draw_pixel_xy() and flush(). v6 * Fix sparse warning for panic_msg and logo. v7 * Add select DRM_KMS_HELPER for the color conversion functions. v8 * Register directly each plane to the panic notifier (Sima) * Add raw_spinlock to properly handle concurrency (Sima) * Register plane instead of device, to avoid looping through plane list, and simplify code. * Replace get_scanout_buffer() logic with drm_panic_set_buffer() (Thomas Zimmermann) * Removed the draw_pixel_xy() API, will see later if it can be added back. v9 * Revert to using get_scanout_buffer() (Sima) * Move get_scanout_buffer() and panic_flush() to the plane helper functions (Thomas Zimmermann) * Register all planes with get_scanout_buffer() to the panic notifier * Use drm_panic_lock() to protect against race (Sima) v10 * Move blit and fill functions back in drm_panic (Thomas Zimmermann). * Simplify the text drawing functions. * Use kmsg_dumper instead of panic_notifier (Sima). v12 * Use array for map and pitch in struct drm_scanout_buffer to support multi-planar format later. (Thomas Zimmermann) * Better indent struct drm_scanout_buffer declaration.

README
Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
