2018-12-28video: Add information about using TrueType fontsSimon Glass
U-Boot supports using TrueType fonts on the console, which is useful for presenting a nice UI to users, e.g. for system recovery. Add information about how to compile this on ARM platforms, since this is not obvious.

2018-05-07SPDX: Convert all of our single license tags to Linux Kernel styleTom Rini
When U-Boot started using SPDX tags we were among the early adopters and there weren't a lot of other examples to borrow from. So we picked the area of the file that usually had a full license text and replaced it with an appropriate SPDX-License-Identifier: entry. Since then, the Linux Kernel has adopted SPDX tags and they place it as the very first line in a file (except where shebangs are used, then it's second line) and with slightly different comment styles than us. In part due to community overlap, in part due to better tag visibility and in part for other minor reasons, switch over to that style. This commit changes all instances where we have a single declared license in the tag as both the before and after are identical in tag contents. There's also a few places where I found we did not have a tag and have introduced one. Signed-off-by: Tom Rini <trini@konsulko.com>

2015-08-14sunxi: display: Add overscan correctionHans de Goede
Add support for making the visual area of the framebuffer smaller and drawing a black border around it. This is intended for use with overscanning monitors (esp. with composite video out), to avoid part of the picture being invisible.

Add composite video out support. This only gets enabled on the Mele M3 for now, since that is were it was tested. It will be enabled on more boards after testing. Signed-off-by: Hans de Goede <hdegoede@redhat.com> Acked-by: Ian Campbell <ijc@hellion.org.uk>
2015-01-14sunxi: video: Add a hpd_delay parameter to configure hpd delayHans de Goede
In some extreme cases it may be necessary to wait 1.5 seconds or more for a hpd signal to show up (and be able to read edid info), but we do not want to penalize all headless boots with an extra second boot delay, so add a hpd_delay parameter which can be set through the video-mode env. variable. While at it raise the default from 300ms to 500ms as 300 may very well be too low in many cases. Signed-off-by: Hans de Goede <hdegoede@redhat.com> Acked-by: Ian Campbell <ijc@hellion.org.uk>

2008-05-21Big white-space cleanup.Wolfgang Denk
This commit gets rid of a huge amount of silly white-space issues. Especially, all sequences of SPACEs followed by TAB characters get removed (unless they appear in print statements). Also remove all embedded "vim:" and "vi:" statements which hide indentation problems. Signed-off-by: Wolfgang Denk <wd@denx.de>
