Subject[RFC 01/14] bootsplash: Initial implementation showing black screen
Date
This is the initial prototype for a lean Linux kernel bootsplash.

It works by replacing fbcon's FB manipulation routines (such as
bitblit, tileblit) with dummy functions, effectively disabling text
output, and drawing the splash directly onto the FB device.

As it is now, it will show a black screen rather than a logo, and
only if manually enabled via the kernel cmdline:

bootsplash.enable=1

The reasons for implementing a bootsplash in kernel space are:

- Quieting things more and nicer than with the quiet boot option:
Currently the 'quiet' boot option does not remove the blinking cursor
and errors are still printed. There are use cases where this is not
desirable (such as embedded and desktop systems, digital signage,
etc.) and a vendor logo is preferable.

- Showing graphics, and never text, when the GUI crashes:
This is an extension of the above use case, where recovery is meant
to happen as invisibly to the user as possible. A system integrator
needs the flexibility to hide "scary text" from users in all cases
other than a panic.
This is especially desirable in embedded systems such as digital
signage.

- Racy VT API:
Userspace bootsplashes and GUIs (e.g. plymouth and X) tend to kick
each other out via the non-exclusive KDSETMODE ioctl. This can
result in situations such as the user being stuck in X with chvt
and Ctrl-Alt-Fx no longer working.

- Mode switching from FB to KMS:
We cannot switch from a generic framebuffer (vesafb, efifb) to a
KMS driver while a userspace splash keeps /dev/fb0 open. The device
will vanish, but the address space is still busy, so the KMS driver
cannot reserve its VRAM.

- Simplification of userspace integration:
Right now, hooking up a splash screen in userspace is quite complex.
Having it in the kernel makes this a breeze, as hooks for
switch_root, remounting r/w, etc. become obsolete.
