There's a bunch of confusions going on here: - The deferred fbcon setup notifier should only be cleaned up from fb_console_exit(), to be symmetric with fb_console_init() - We also need to make sure we don't race with the work, which means temporarily dropping the console lock (or we can deadlock) - That also means no point in clearing deferred_takeover, we are unloading everything anyway. - Finally rename fbcon_exit to fbcon_release_all and move it, since that's what's it doing when being called from consw->con_deinit through fbcon_deinit. To answer a question from Sam just quoting my own reply: > We loose the call to fbcon_release_all() here [in fb_console_exit()]. > We have part of the old fbcon_exit() above, but miss the release parts. Ah yes that's the entire point of this change. The release_all in the fbcon exit path was only needed when fbcon was a separate module indepedent from core fb.ko. Which means it was possible to unload fbcon while having fbdev drivers registered. But since we've merged them that has become impossible, so by the time the fb.ko module can be unloaded, there's guaranteed to be no fbdev drivers left. And hence removing them is pointless. v2: Explain the why better (Sam) Acked-by: Sam Ravnborg <sam@ravnborg.org> Signed-off-by: Daniel Vetter <daniel.vetter@intel.com> Cc: Daniel Vetter <daniel@ffwll.ch> Cc: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org> Cc: Claudio Suarez <cssk@net-c.es> Cc: Du Cheng <ducheng2@gmail.com> Cc: Tetsuo Handa <penguin-kernel@I-love.SAKURA.ne.jp> Link: https://patchwork.freedesktop.org/patch/msgid/20220405210335.3434130-17-daniel.vetter@ffwll.ch |

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 Restructured Text 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.
