The previous code was checking the "VGA Enable" bit on the video card's
parent PCI-to-PCI bridge only. This didn't work for the case where the
video card is attached to the root PCI bus (ie. the card has no parent
PCI-to-PCI bridge).
Now, the new code:
1. checks the "VGA Enable" bit on the parent bridge only if it's a
PCI-to-PCI bridge;
2. always checks the "I/O" and "Memory address space decoding" bits
on the video card itself.
However, vendor-specific bits are not used.
This fixes the use of many integrated Radeon cards: without this patch,
we fail to detect them as the boot display and, when radeonkms looks for
the Video BIOS, it skips the shadow copy made by the System BIOS. It
then fails to fully initialize the card, because the shadow copy is the
only way to read the Video BIOS in these situations. A workaround was to
force the boot display selection using the "hw.pci.default_vgapci_unit"
tunable.
A previous version of this patch added a new function doing the checks.
Now, the vga_pci_is_boot_display() function is used to perform the
checks (only until the boot display is found) and return if the given
device is the boot display or not.
Furthermore, vga_pci_attach() logs "Boot video device" if the card being
attached it the Chosen One:
vgapci0: <VGA-compatible display> [...]
vgapci0: Boot video device

This is the top level of the FreeBSD source directory. This file was last revised on: $FreeBSD$ For copyright information, please see the file COPYRIGHT in this directory (additional copyright information also exists for some sources in this tree - please see the specific source directories for more information). The Makefile in this directory supports a number of targets for building components (or all) of the FreeBSD source tree, the most commonly used one being ``world'', which rebuilds and installs everything in the FreeBSD system from the source tree except the kernel, the kernel-modules and the contents of /etc. The ``world'' target should only be used in cases where the source tree has not changed from the currently running version. See: http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/makeworld.html for more information, including setting make(1) variables. The ``buildkernel'' and ``installkernel'' targets build and install the kernel and the modules (see below). Please see the top of the Makefile in this directory for more information on the standard build targets and compile-time flags. Building a kernel is a somewhat more involved process, documentation for which can be found at: http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/kernelconfig.html And in the config(8) man page. Note: If you want to build and install the kernel with the ``buildkernel'' and ``installkernel'' targets, you might need to build world before. More information is available in the handbook. The sample kernel configuration files reside in the sys/<arch>/conf sub-directory (assuming that you've installed the kernel sources), the file named GENERIC being the one used to build your initial installation kernel. The file NOTES contains entries and documentation for all possible devices, not just those commonly used. It is the successor of the ancient LINT file, but in contrast to LINT, it is not buildable as a kernel but a pure reference and documentation file.
