tty: remove resize window special case

2008-08-15T17:34:07Z

This moves it to being a tty operation. That removes special cases and now also means that resize can be picked up by um and other non vt consoles which may have a resize operation. Signed-off-by: Alan Cox Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds

vt: Deadlock workaround

2008-08-05T00:12:07Z

2.6.26 corrected the mutex locking on tty resizing to fix the case where you could get the tty/vt sizing out of sync. That turns out to have a deadlock. The actual fix is really major and I've got it lined up as part of the ops changes for 2.6.28 so for 2.6.26/2.6.27 it is safer to reintroduce this ages old minor bug.

vt: do not update when the console is blanked

2008-07-24T17:47:30Z

vt.c DO_UPDATE macro checks if the console is visible but doesn't check if the console is blanked. In fact updating fbcon while the console is blanked is not only unnecessary but can even cause screen corruption. Therefore I am adding a simple check on console_blanked in DO_UPDATE.

vt: hold console_sem across sysfs operations

2008-07-24T17:47:30Z

Hold console sem while creating/destroying sysfs files. Serialisation is so far done by BKL held in tty release_dev and chrdev_open, but no other locks are held in open path. Signed-off-by: Jiri Slaby Cc: Alan Cox Cc: Aristeu Rozanski Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds

device create: char: convert device_create to device_create_drvdata

2008-07-22T04:54:41Z

device_create() is race-prone, so use the race-free device_create_drvdata() instead as device_create() is going away. Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

vt: fix background color on line feed, DEC invert

2008-06-06T18:29:12Z

Original report: """I used to force my console to black-on-white by the command `setterm -inversescreen on`. In 2.6.26-rc4, I get lots of black background characters.""" Another addendum to commit c9e587ab. This was previously missed out since I was not aware of what vc_decscnm was for.

Make console charset translation optional

2008-06-04T13:56:12Z

By turning off the new CONSOLE_TRANSLATIONS option and dropping the associated code and tables from the kernel, we can save about 7KiB. Taken from linux-tiny project by Tim Bird and mangled further by dwmw2. Signed-off-by: Tim Bird Signed-off-by: David Woodhouse

vt: fix canonical input in UTF-8 mode

2008-05-08T17:46:56Z

For e.g. proper TTY canonical support, IUTF8 termios flag has to be set as appropriate. Linux used to not care about setting that flag for VT TTYs. This patch fixes that by activating it according to the current mode of the VT, and sets the default value according to the vt.default_utf8 parameter.
