This hook is also visible in userspace via the TIOCWINSZ, VT_RESIZE and\nVT_RESIZEX ioctl\u0027s.  One particular utility, SVGATextMode, expects that\ncon_resize() of the VGA console will always return success even if the\nresulting screen is not compatible with the hardware.  However, this\nparticular behavior of the VGA console, as reported in Kernel Bugzilla Bug\n7513, can cause undefined behavior if the user starts with a console size\nlarger than 80x25.\n\nTo work around this problem, add an extra parameter to con_resize().  This\nparameter is ignored by drivers except for vgacon.  If this parameter is\nnon-zero, then the resize request came from a VT_RESIZE or VT_RESIZEX ioctl\nand vgacon will always return success.  If this parameter is zero, vgacon will\nreturn -EINVAL if the requested size is not compatible with the hardware.

      "message": "console UTF-8 fixes (fix)\n\nRecently my console UTF-8 patch went mainline.  Here is an additional patch\nthat fixes two nasty issues and improves a third one, namely:\n\n1. My patch changed the behavior if a glyph is not found in the Unicode\n   mapping table. Previously for Unicode values less than 256 or 512 the\n   kernel tried to display the glyph from that position of the glyph table,\n   which could lead to a different accented letter being displayed. I\n   removed this fallback possibility and changed it to display the\n   replacement symbol.\n\n   As Behdad pointed out, some fonts (e.g. sun12x22 from the kbd package)\n   lack Unicode mapping information, hence all you get is lots of question\n   marks. Though theoretically it\u0027s actually a user-space bug (the font\n   should be fixed), Behdad and I both believe that it\u0027d be good to work\n   around in the kernel by re-introducing the fallback solution for ASCII\n   characters only. This sounds a quite reasonable decision, since all fonts\n   ship the ASCII characters in the first 128 positions. This way users\n   won\u0027t be surprised by lots of question marks just because s/he issued a\n   not-so-perfectly parameterized setfont command. As this fallback is only\n   re-introduced for code points below 128, you still won\u0027t see an accented\n   letter replaced by another, but at least you\u0027ll always get the English\n   letters right.\n\n2. My patch introduced \"question mark with inverted color attributes\" as a\n   last resort fallback glyph. Though it perfectly works on VGA console, on\n   framebuffer you may end up with question marks that are highlighed but\n   shouldn\u0027t be, and normal characters that are accidentally highlighed.\n   This is caused by missing FLUSHes when changing the color attribute.\n\n3. I\u0027ve updated the table of double-width character based on Markus\u0027s\n   updated version. Only ten new code poings (one interval) is added.\n\nSigned-off-by: Egmont Koblinger \u003cegmont@uhulinux.hu\u003e\nSigned-off-by: Andrew Morton \u003cakpm@linux-foundation.org\u003e\nSigned-off-by: Linus Torvalds \u003ctorvalds@linux-foundation.org\u003e\n"

      "message": "console UTF-8 fixes\n\nThe UTF-8 part of the vt driver suffers from the following issues which are\naddressed in my patch:\n\n1) If there\u0027s no glyph found for a particular valid UTF-8 character, we try\n   to display U+FFFD. However if this one is not found either, here\u0027s what\n   the current kernel does:\n\n   - First, if the Unicode value is less than the number of glyphs, use the\n     glyph directly from that position of the glyph table. While it may be a\n     good idea in the 8-bit world, it has absolutely no sense with Unicode\n     in mind. For example, if a Latin-2 font is loaded and an application\n     prints U+00FB (\"u with circumflex\", not present in Latin-2) then as a\n     fallback solution the glyph from the 0xFB position of the Latin-2\n     fontset (which is an \"u with double accent\" - a different character) is\n     displayed.\n\n   - Second, if this fallback fails too, a simple ASCII question mark is\n     printed, which is visually undistinguishable from a real question mark.\n\n   I changed the code to skip the first step (except if in non-UTF-8 mode),\n   and changed the second step to print the question mark with inverse color\n   attributes, so it is visually clear that it\u0027s not a real question mark,\n   and resembles more to the common glyph of U+FFFD.\n\n2) The UTF-8 decoder is buggy in many ways:\n\n   - Lone continuation bytes (section 3.1 of Markus Kuhn\u0027s UTF-8 stress\n     test) are not caught, they are displayed as some \"random\" (taken\n     directly form the font table, see above) glyphs instead the replacement\n     character.\n\n   - Incomplete sequences (sections 3.2 and 3.3 of the stress test) emit no\n     replacement character, but rather cause the subsequent valid character\n     to be displayed more times(!).\n\n   - The decoder is not safe: overlong sequences are not caught currently,\n     they are displayed as if these were valid representations. This may\n     even have security impacts.\n\n   - The decoder does not handle D800..DFFF and FFFE..FFFF specially, it\n     just emits these code points and lets it be looked up in the glyph\n     table. Since these are invalid code points, I replace them by U+FFFD\n     and hence give no chance for them to be looked up in the glyph table.\n     (Assuming no font ships glyphs for these code points, this change is\n     not visible to the users since the glyph shown will be the same.)\n\n   With my fixes to the decoder it now behaves exactly as Markus Kuhn\u0027s\n   stress test recommends.\n\n3) It has no concept of double-width (CJK) characters. It\u0027s way beyond the\n   scope of my patch to try to display them, but at least I think it\u0027s\n   important for the cursor to jump two positions when printing such\n   characters, since this is what applications (such as text editors)\n   expect. Currently the cursor only jumps one position, and hence\n   applications suffer from displaying and refreshing problems, and editing\n   some English letters that are preceded by some CJK characters in the same\n   line is a nightmare. With my patch an additional space is inserted after\n   the CJK character has been printed (which usually means a replacement\n   symbol of course). (If U+FFFD isn\u0027t availble and hence an inverse\n   question mark is displayed in the first cell, I keep the inverted state\n   for the space in the 2nd column so it\u0027s quite easy to see that they are\n   tied together.)\n\n4) There is a small built-in table of zero-width spaces that are not to be\n   printed but silently skipped.

Regardless currently\ntriggering a SAK now generates an ugly BUG_ON and kills the kernel.\n\nThanks to Alexey Dobriyan \u003cadobriyan@openvz.org\u003e for spotting this.\n\nThis modifies the use of SAK_work to initialize it when the data\nstructure it resides in is initialized, and to simply call\nschedule_work when we need to generate a SAK.  I update both\ndata structures that have a SAK_work member for consistency.\n\nAll of the old PREPARE_WORK calls that are now gone.\n\nIf we call schedule_work again before it has processed it\nhas generated the first SAK it will simply ignore the duplicate\nschedule_work request.\n\nSigned-off-by: Eric W.

This governs auto-release of the structure upon execution.\n\nOrdinarily, the work queue executor would release the work_struct for further\nscheduling or deallocation by clearing the pending bit prior to jumping to the\nwork function.  This means that, unless the driver makes some guarantee itself\nthat the work_struct won\u0027t go away, the work function may not access anything\nelse in the work_struct or its container lest they be deallocated..  This is a\nproblem if the auxiliary data is taken away (as done by the last patch).\n\nHowever, if the pending bit is *not* cleared before jumping to the work\nfunction, then the work function *may* access the work_struct and its container\nwith no problems.  But then the work function must itself release the\nwork_struct by calling work_release().\n\nIn most cases, automatic release is fine, so this is the default.

      "message": "[PATCH] vt: Make vt_pid a struct pid (making it pid wrap around safe).\n\nI took a good hard look at the locking and it appears the locking on vt_pid\nis the console semaphore.  Every modified path is called under the console\nsemaphore except reset_vc when it is called from fn_SAK or do_SAK both of\nwhich appear to be in interrupt context.  In addition I need to be careful\nbecause in the presence of an oops the console_sem may be arbitrarily\ndropped.\n\nWhich leads me to conclude the current locking is inadequate for my needs.\n\nGiven the weird cases we could hit because of oops printing instead of\nintroducing an extra spin lock to protect the data and keep the pid to\nsignal and the signal to send in sync, I have opted to use xchg on just the\nstruct pid * pointer instead.\n\nDue to console_sem we will stay in sync between vt_pid and vt_mode except\nfor a small window during a SAK, or oops handling.  SAK handling should\nkill any user space process that care, and oops handling we are broken\nanyway.  Besides the worst that can happen is that I try to send the wrong\nsignal.\n\nSigned-off-by: Eric W.

      "message": "[PATCH] VT binding: Add binding/unbinding support for the VT console\n\nThe framebuffer console is now able to dynamically bind and unbind from the VT\nconsole layer.  Due to the way the VT console layer works, the drivers\nthemselves decide when to bind or unbind.  However, it was decided that\nbinding must be controlled, not by the drivers themselves, but by the VT\nconsole layer.  With this, dynamic binding is possible for all VT console\ndrivers, not just fbcon.\n\nThus, the VT console layer will impose the following to all VT console\ndrivers:\n\n- all registered VT console drivers will be entered in a private list\n- drivers can register themselves to the VT console layer, but they cannot\n  decide when to bind or unbind. (Exception: To maintain backwards\n  compatibility, take_over_console() will automatically bind the driver after\n  registration.)\n- drivers can remove themselves from the list by unregistering from the VT\n  console layer. A prerequisite for unregistration is that the driver must not\n  be bound.\n\nThe following functions are new in the vt.c:\n\nregister_con_driver() - public function, this function adds the VT console\ndriver to an internal list maintained by the VT console\n\nbind_con_driver() - private function, it binds the driver to the console\n\ntake_over_console() is changed to call register_con_driver() followed by a\nbind_con_driver().  This is the only time drivers can decide when to bind to\nthe VT layer.  This is to maintain backwards compatibility.\n\nunbind_con_driver() - private function, it unbinds the driver from its\nconsole.  The vacated consoles will be taken over by the default boot console\ndriver.\n\nunregister_con_driver() - public function, removes the driver from the\ninternal list maintained by the VT console.  It will only succeed if the\ndriver is currently unbound.\n\ncon_is_bound() checks if the driver is currently bound or not\n\ngive_up_console() is just a wrapper to unregister_con_driver().\n\nThere are also 3 additional functions meant to be called only by the tty layer\nfor sysfs control:\n\n\tvt_bind() - calls bind_con_driver()\n\tvt_unbind() - calls unbind_con_driver()\n\tvt_show_drivers() - shows the list of registered drivers\n\nMost VT console drivers will continue to work as is, but might have problems\nwhen unbinding or binding which should be fixable with minimal changes.\n\nSigned-off-by: Antonino Daplas \u003cadaplas@pol.net\u003e\nSigned-off-by: Andrew Morton \u003cakpm@osdl.org\u003e\nSigned-off-by: Linus Torvalds \u003ctorvalds@osdl.org\u003e\n"

      "message": "[PATCH] Remove race between con_open and con_close\n\n[ Same race and same patch also by Steven Rostedt \u003crostedt@goodmis.org\u003e ]\n\nI have a laptop (G3 powerbook) which will pretty reliably hit a race\nbetween con_open and con_close late in the boot process and oops in\nvt_ioctl due to tty-\u003edriver_data being NULL.\n\nWhat happens is this: process A opens /dev/tty6; it comes into\ncon_open() (drivers/char/vt.c) and assign a non-NULL value to\ntty-\u003edriver_data.  Then process A closes that and concurrently process\nB opens /dev/tty6.  Process A gets through con_close() and clears\ntty-\u003edriver_data, since tty-\u003ecount \u003d\u003d 1.  However, before process A\ncan decrement tty-\u003ecount, we switch to process B (e.g. at the\ndown(\u0026tty_sem) call at drivers/char/tty_io.c line 1626).\n\nSo process B gets to run and comes into con_open with tty-\u003ecount \u003d\u003d 2,\nas tty-\u003ecount is incremented (in init_dev) before con_open is called.\nBecause tty-\u003ecount !\u003d 1, we don\u0027t set tty-\u003edriver_data.  Then when the\nprocess tries to do anything with that fd, it oopses.\n\nThe simple and effective fix for this is to test tty-\u003edriver_data\nrather than tty-\u003ecount in con_open.  The testing and setting of\ntty-\u003edriver_data is serialized with respect to the clearing of\ntty-\u003edriver_data in con_close by the console_sem.  We can\u0027t get a\nsituation where con_open sees tty-\u003edriver_data !\u003d NULL and then\ncon_close on a different fd clears tty-\u003edriver_data, because\ntty-\u003ecount is incremented before con_open is called.  Thus this patch\neliminates the race, and in fact with this patch my laptop doesn\u0027t\noops.\n\nSigned-off-by: Paul Mackerras \u003cpaulus@samba.org\u003e\n[ Same patch\nSigned-off-by: Steven Rostedt \u003crostedt@goodmis.org\u003e\n  in http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l\u003dlinux-kernel\u0026m\u003d112450820432121\u0026w\u003d2 ]\nSigned-off-by: Linus Torvalds \u003ctorvalds@osdl.org\u003e\n"
