This patch makes mmapping the simple-framebuffer device work on a no-MMU
ARM target. The code is mostly taken from
arch/blackfin/kernel/sys_bfin.c.

Note this is only tested on this no-MMU machine and I don't know enough
about framebuffers and mm to decide if this patch is sane. Also I'm
unsure about the size check because it triggers if userspace page aligns
the len parameter. (I don't know how usual it is to do, I'd say it's
wrong, but my test program (fbtest by Geert Uytterhoeven) does it.)

It's quite common: the granularity of mmap() is PAGE_SIZE, i.e. if you
try to map a partial page, you'll get access to the full page anyway
(with MMU; without MMU, you can access everything anyway).
Fbtest always mmap()s the full (page aligned) smem_len.

Why restrict this to screen_size? Fbtest will map the whole frame buffer memory.

Typically screen_size is not a multiple of PAGE_SIZE, so this is another
reason why your size check fails.

Shouldn't you take into account pgoff?

For me screen_size is zero. The logic to determine the size is copied
from fb_read. In the meantine I'm using

	if (len > PAGE_ALIGN(screen_size))

because even if userspace passes an unaligned size it gets aligned
somewhere on the path to fb_get_unmapped_area.

Sounds sensible. Then the same applies to blackfin's
get_fb_unmapped_area.

So is it:

	unsigned long screen_size = info->screen_size ?: info->fix.smem_len;

	screen_size = PAGE_ALIGN(screen_size);

	if (pgoff > screen_size || pgoff + len > screen_size)
		return -EINVAL;

	return (unsigned long)info->screen_base + pgoff;

? Or should I drop the size check?

Best regards
Uwe

This must be:

	if (pgoff > screen_size || len > screen_size - pgoff)

to do what I intended.

fb_read() only allows reading the visible screen, not the full frame
buffer memory.
fb_mmap() does allow mapping the full frame buffer memory (and the optional
MMIO registers, but you can't easily do that the same way on nommu, as it's
a discontiguous mapping).
So please use PAGE_ALIGN(info->fix.smem_len) as the limit.

Gr{oetje,eeting}s,

                        Geert
