Subject: [PATCH v9 4/8] drivers/video/fbdev/gxt4500: Use pci_ioremap_wc_bar() to map framebuffer
Date: Wed,  8 Jul 2015 18:54:15 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1436406859-1280-5-git-send-email-mcgrof@do-not-panic.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1436406859-1280-1-git-send-email-mcgrof@do-not-panic.com>

From: "Luis R. Rodriguez" <mcgrof@suse.com>

The driver doesn't use mtrr_add() or arch_phys_wc_add() but since we
know the framebuffer is isolated already on an ioremap() we can take
advantage of write combining for performance where possible.

In this case there are a few motivations for this:

a) Take advantage of PAT when available.

b) Help with the goal of eventually using _PAGE_CACHE_UC over
   _PAGE_CACHE_UC_MINUS on x86 on ioremap_nocache() (see commit
   de33c442e titled "x86 PAT: fix performance drop for glx,
   use UC minus for ioremap(), ioremap_nocache() and
   pci_mmap_page_range()").
