Recently I've studied my system dmesg and seen this: <lots of stuff before> 1 [ 0.478416] ACPI: Battery Slot [C1B4] (battery present) 2 [ 0.478648] ACPI: Battery Slot [C1B3] (battery absent) 3 [ 0.906678] [drm] initialized overlay support 4 [ 1.762304] Console: switching to colour frame buffer device 128x48 5 [ 1.765211] fb0: inteldrmfb frame buffer device 6 [ 1.765242] registered panic notifier 7 [ 1.765272] [drm] Initialized i915 1.6.0 20080730 for 0000:00:02.0 on minor 0 8 [ 1.765372] Serial: 8250/16550 driver, 4 ports, IRQ sharing enabled <lots of stuff after> and it was not evident who registered that panic notifier on line 6. I'd bought it as some low-level stuff needed by kernel itself, but the time was inappropriate -- too late for such things. So I had to study sources to see it was drm who was registering switch-to-fb on panic. Let's avoid possible confusion and mark this message as going from drm subsystem. (I'm a bit unsure whether to use '[drm]:' or 'drm:' -- the rest of the kernel just uses 'topic:', and even in drm_fb_helper.c we use 'fb%d:' without [] brackets. Either way is ok with me.)

************************************************************ * For the very latest on DRI development, please see: * * http://dri.freedesktop.org/ * ************************************************************ The Direct Rendering Manager (drm) is a device-independent kernel-level device driver that provides support for the XFree86 Direct Rendering Infrastructure (DRI). The DRM supports the Direct Rendering Infrastructure (DRI) in four major ways: 1. The DRM provides synchronized access to the graphics hardware via the use of an optimized two-tiered lock. 2. The DRM enforces the DRI security policy for access to the graphics hardware by only allowing authenticated X11 clients access to restricted regions of memory. 3. The DRM provides a generic DMA engine, complete with multiple queues and the ability to detect the need for an OpenGL context switch. 4. The DRM is extensible via the use of small device-specific modules that rely extensively on the API exported by the DRM module. Documentation on the DRI is available from: http://dri.freedesktop.org/wiki/Documentation http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=387 http://dri.sourceforge.net/doc/ For specific information about kernel-level support, see: The Direct Rendering Manager, Kernel Support for the Direct Rendering Infrastructure http://dri.sourceforge.net/doc/drm_low_level.html Hardware Locking for the Direct Rendering Infrastructure http://dri.sourceforge.net/doc/hardware_locking_low_level.html A Security Analysis of the Direct Rendering Infrastructure http://dri.sourceforge.net/doc/security_low_level.html
