Allows us to delete a bunch of hand-rolled stuff using a timer plus a separate work). Also to simplify the code we initialize the cursor_work completely when we allocate the fbcon_ops structure, instead of trying to cope with console re-initialization. The motiviation here is that fbcon code stops using the fb_info.queue, which helps with locking issues around cleanup and all that in a later patch. Also note that this allows us to ditch the hand-rolled work cleanup in fbcon_exit - we already call fbcon_del_cursor_timer, which takes care of everything. Plus this was racy anyway. v2: - Only INIT_DELAYED_WORK when kzalloc succeeded (Tetsuo) - Explain that we replace both the timer and a work with the combined delayed_work (Javier) Reviewed-by: Javier Martinez Canillas <javierm@redhat.com> Acked-by: Thomas Zimmermann <tzimmermann@suse.de> Signed-off-by: Daniel Vetter <daniel.vetter@intel.com> Cc: Daniel Vetter <daniel@ffwll.ch> Cc: Claudio Suarez <cssk@net-c.es> Cc: Du Cheng <ducheng2@gmail.com> Cc: Thomas Zimmermann <tzimmermann@suse.de> Cc: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org> Cc: Tetsuo Handa <penguin-kernel@I-love.SAKURA.ne.jp> Link: https://patchwork.freedesktop.org/patch/msgid/20220405210335.3434130-7-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.
