* vgacon: unconfuse vc_origin when using soft scrollbackNicolas Pitre2019-01-181-3/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When CONFIG_VGACON_SOFT_SCROLLBACK is selected, the VGA display memory index and vc_visible_origin don't change when scrollback is activated. The actual screen content is saved away and the scrollbackdata is copied over it. However the vt code, and /dev/vcs devices in particular, still expect vc_origin to always point at the actual screen content not the displayed scrollback content. So adjust vc_origin to point at the saved screen content when scrollback is active and set it back to vc_visible_origin when restoring the screen. This fixes /dev/vcsa<n> that return scrollback content when they shouldn't (onli /dev/vcsa without a number should), and also fixes /dev/vcsu that should return scrollback content when scrollback is active but currently doesn't. An unnecessary call to vga_set_mem_top() is also removed.

* video/console/vgacon: Print big fat warning with nomodesetLyude Paul2018-07-241-0/+5
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | It's been a pretty good while since kernel modesetting was introduced. It has almost entirely replaced previous solutions which required userspace modesetting, and I can't even recall any drivers off the top of my head for modern day hardware that don't only support one or the other. Even nvidia's ugly blob does not require the use of nomodeset, and only requires that nouveau be blacklisted. Effectively, the only thing nomodeset does in the year 2018 is disable your graphics drivers. Since VESA is a thing, this will give many users the false impression that they've actually fixed an issue they were having with their machine simply because the laptop will boot up to a degraded GUI. This of course, is never actually the case. Things get even worse when you consider that there's still an enormous amount of tutorials users find on the internet that still suggest adding nomodeset, along with various users who have been around long enough to still suggest it. There really isn't any legitimate reason I can see for this to be an option that's used by anyone else other then developers, or properly informed users. So, let's end the confusion and start printing warnings whenever it's enabled.

* vgacon: Set VGA struct resource typesBjorn Helgaas2017-12-191-8/+26
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Set the resource type when we reserve VGA-related I/O port resources. The resource code doesn't actually look at the type, so it inserts resources without a type in the tree correctly even without this change. But if we ever print a resource without a type, it looks like this: vga+ [??? 0x000003c0-0x000003df flags 0x0] Setting the type means it will be printed correctly as: vga+ [io 0x000003c0-0x000003df] Signed-off-by: Bjorn Helgaas <bhelgaas@google.com>

| | | | | | | | | | | | The impact of the persistent scrollback feature on the code size is rather small, so the config option is removed. The feature stays disabled by default and can be enabled by using the boot command line parameter 'vgacon.scrollback_persistent=1' or by setting VGACON_SOFT_SCROLLBACK_PERSISTENT_ENABLE_BY_DEFAULT=y.

* console: Add persistent scrollback buffers for all VGA consolesManuel Schölling2017-01-251-53/+89
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Add a scrollback buffers for each VGA console. The benefit is that the scrollback history is not flushed when switching between consoles but is persistent. The buffers are allocated on demand when a new console is opened. This breaks tools like clear_console that rely on flushing the scrollback history by switching back and forth between consoles which is why this feature is disabled by default. Use the escape sequence \e[3J instead for flushing the buffer.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The vc_data.vc_uni_pagedir filed is currently long int, supposedly to be served generically. This, however, leads to lots of cast to pointer, and rather it worsens the readability significantly. Actually, we have now only a single uni_pagedir map implementation, and this won't change likely. So, it'd be much more simple and error-prone to just use the exact pointer for struct uni_pagedir instead of long. Ditto for vc_uni_pagedir_loc. It's a pointer to the uni_pagedir, thus it can be changed similarly to the exact type. Signed-off-by: Takashi Iwai <tiwai@suse.de> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>
* | vgacon: Fix & cleanup refcountingTakashi Iwai2014-05-281-7/+8
|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The vgacon driver prepares a two element array of uni_pagedir_loc and uses the second item as its own reference counter for sharing the uni_pagedir. And the code assumes blindly that the second item is available if the assigned vc_uni_pagedir isn't the standard one, which might be wrong (although currently it's so). This patch fixes that wrong assumption, and gives a slight cleanup along with it: namely, instead of array, just give the uni_pagedir_loc and a separate refcount variable. It makes the code a bit more understandable at first glance. Signed-off-by: Takashi Iwai <tiwai@suse.de> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>

* vgacon/vt: clear buffer attributes when we load a 512 character font (v2)Dave Airlie2013-02-071-7/+15
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When we switch from 256->512 byte font rendering mode, it means the current contents of the screen is being reinterpreted. The bit that holds the high bit of the 9-bit font, may have been previously set, and thus the new font misrenders. The problem case we see is grub2 writes spaces with the bit set, so it ends up with data like 0x820, which gets reinterpreted into 0x120 char which the font translates into G with a circumflex. This flashes up on screen at boot and is quite ugly. A current side effect of this patch though is that any rendering on the screen changes color to a slightly darker color, but at least the screen no longer corrupts. v2: as suggested by hpa, always clear the attribute space, whether we are are going to or from 512 chars.

* vgacon: check for efi machineYannick Heneault2011-01-131-1/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | It seems there is a small problem of VGA palette corruption on EFI machine. When the kernel initializes the architecture, it checks if the machine is a EFI machine and assumes that a VGA console can exist. When it initializes the console in vgacon_startup it checks if it can really use the VGA console. I think this is where a check is missing. Currently, the function can fail if a VESA boot mode is detected but not if a EFI boot mode was used. Thus vgacon_startup() doesn't fail and initialize the video card for a real VGA mode. This function changes the first 16entries of the VGA palette. When the efifb driver kicks in, the palette is not restored to default ramp value, thus the 16 first entry remain in a modified state. The following patch prevent this corruption. Signed-off-by: Yannick Heneault <yheneaul@matrox.com> Cc: Dave Airlie <airlied@linux.ie> Cc: "H.

This doesn't always play well with vgacon because vgacon_deinit() is only doing its job when the last console it owns is closed (when switching from vgacon to fbcon, that's usually *after* fbcon_init() has set the new mode).

* vgacon: return the upper half of 512 character fontsStefan Bader2009-05-031-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Uwe Geuder noted that he gets random bitmaps on a text console if he tried to type extended characters (like the e acute). For him everything above unicode 0xa0 was corrupted. After some digging there seems to be a little culprit in vgacon since the beginning of ages (well git). The function vgacon_font_get will store the number of characters correctly in font->charcount but then calls to vgacon_do_font_op(..., 0, 0). Which means only the lower 256 characters are actually stored to the fontdata. The rest is left untouched. So the next time that saved data is used, the garbled font appears. This happens on every switch between text consoles.

* DRM: add mode setting supportDave Airlie2008-12-291-0/+17
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Add mode setting support to the DRM layer. This is a fairly big chunk of work that allows DRM drivers to provide full output control and configuration capabilities to userspace. It was motivated by several factors: - the fb layer's APIs aren't suited for anything but simple configurations - coordination between the fb layer, DRM layer, and various userspace drivers is poor to non-existent (radeonfb excepted) - user level mode setting drivers makes displaying panic & oops messages more difficult - suspend/resume of graphics state is possible in many more configurations with kernel level support This commit just adds the core DRM part of the mode setting APIs. Driver specific commits using these new structure and APIs will follow.

* vt: fix background color on line feedJan Engelhardt2008-04-291-2/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | A command that causes a line feed while a background color is active, such as perl -e 'print "x" x 60, "\e[44m", "x" x 40, "\e[0m\n"' and perl -e 'print "x" x 40, "\e[44m\n", "x" x 40, "\e[0m\n"' causes the line that was started as a result of the line feed to be completely filled with the currently active background color instead of the default color. When scrolling, part of the current screen is memcpy'd/memmove'd to the new region, and the new line(s) that will appear as a result are cleared using memset. However, the lines are cleared with vc->vc_video_erase_char, causing them to be colored with the currently active background color. This is different from X11 terminal emulators which always paint the new lines with the default background color (e.g. `xterm -bg black`). The clear operation (\e[1J and \e[2J) also use vc_video_erase_char, so a new vc->vc_scrl_erase_char is introduced with contains the erase character used for scrolling, which is built from vc->vc_def_color instead of vc->vc_color.

* vt/vgacon: Check if screen resize request comes from userspaceAntonino A. Daplas2007-10-161-3/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Various console drivers are able to resize the screen via the con_resize() hook. This hook is also visible in userspace via the TIOCWINSZ, VT_RESIZE and VT_RESIZEX ioctl's. One particular utility, SVGATextMode, expects that con_resize() of the VGA console will always return success even if the resulting screen is not compatible with the hardware. However, this particular behavior of the VGA console, as reported in Kernel Bugzilla Bug 7513, can cause undefined behavior if the user starts with a console size larger than 80x25. To work around this problem, add an extra parameter to con_resize(). This parameter is ignored by drivers except for vgacon. If this parameter is non-zero, then the resize request came from a VT_RESIZE or VT_RESIZEX ioctl and vgacon will always return success. If this parameter is zero, vgacon will return -EINVAL if the requested size is not compatible with the hardware. The latter is the more correct behavior. With this change, SVGATextMode should still work correctly while in-kernel and stty resize calls can expect correct behavior from vgacon.
