CONFIG_FB_SIMPLE: Simple framebuffer support

General informations

The Linux kernel configuration item CONFIG_FB_SIMPLE has multiple definitions:

Simple framebuffer support found in drivers/video/fbdev/Kconfig

The configuration item CONFIG_FB_SIMPLE:

• prompt: Simple framebuffer support
• type: tristate
• depends on: ( CONFIG_FB ) && (! CONFIG_DRM_SIMPLEDRM )
• defined in drivers/video/fbdev/Kconfig
• found in Linux kernels: 5.15–5.19, 6.0–6.8, 6.9-rc+HEAD
• modules built: simplefb

Help text

Say Y if you want support for a simple frame-buffer.

This driver assumes that the display hardware has been initialized before the kernel boots, and the kernel will simply render to the pre-allocated frame buffer surface.

Configuration re: surface address, size, and format must be provided through device tree, or plain old platform data.
