Commit Message

Samuel Thibault Dec. 5, 2022, 12:07 a.m. UTC 
  The current con_font_get/set API currently hardcodes a 32-pixel-tall
limitation, which only dates from the old VGA hardware which could not
handle taller fonts than that.

This change just adds a vpitch parameter to release this
constraint. Drivers which do not support vpitch != 32 can just return
EINVAL when it is not 32, font loading tools will revert to trying 32
and succeed.

This change makes the fbcon driver consider vpitch appropriately, thus
making it able to load large fonts.

Have you tested this? What does this 'height' refer to?

thanks,

Ah, no, I had assumed that this was for a specific arch. But actually I
wasn't getting it because it depends on BROKEN.

It was meant to be vpitch actually, I will fix it.

Hmm, for two years... I will remove the con support completely next week 
if noone beats me to it.

If you do it this week we can get it into 6.2 :)
