This moves 32x32 font size limitation checking down to drivers, so that
fbcon can allow large fonts.
We still keep a limitation to 64x128 pixels so as to have a simple bounded
allocation for con_font_get and in the userland kbd tool. That glyph size
will however be enough to have 128x36 characters on a "16/9 8K display".

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.

This reverts commit ae1287865f.
Always free the console font when deinitializing the framebuffer
console. Subsequent framebuffer consoles will then use the default
font. Rely on userspace to load any user-configured font for these
consoles.
Commit ae1287865f ("fbcon: don't lose the console font across
generic->chip driver switch") was introduced to work around losing
the font during graphics-device handover. [1][2] It kept a dangling
pointer with the font data between loading the two consoles, which is
fairly adventurous hack. It also never covered cases when the other
consoles, such as VGA text mode, where involved.
The problem has meanwhile been solved in userspace. Systemd comes
with a udev rule that re-installs the configured font when a console
comes up. [3] So the kernel workaround can be removed.
This also removes one of the two special cases triggered by setting
FBINFO_MISC_FIRMWARE in an fbdev driver.
Tested during device handover from efifb and simpledrm to radeon. Udev
reloads the configured console font for the new driver's terminal.

fbcon_do_set_font() calls vc_resize() when font size is changed.
However, if if vc_resize() failed, current implementation doesn't
revert changes for font size, and this causes inconsistent state.
syzbot reported unable to handle page fault due to this issue [1].
syzbot's repro uses fault injection which cause failure for memory
allocation, so vc_resize() failed.
This patch fixes this issue by properly revert changes for font
related date when vc_resize() failed.

We need to prevent that users configure a screen size which is smaller than the
currently selected font size. Otherwise rendering chars on the screen will
access memory outside the graphics memory region.
This patch adds a new function fbcon_modechange_possible() which
implements this check and which later may be extended with other checks
if necessary. The new function is called from the FBIOPUT_VSCREENINFO
ioctl handler in fbmem.c, which will return -EINVAL if userspace asked
for a too small screen size.

Prevent that users set a font size which is bigger than the physical screen.
It's unlikely this may happen (because screens are usually much larger than the

There is no need to directly skip over to the SCROLL_REDRAW case while
the logo is still shown.
When using DRM, this change has no effect because the code will reach
the SCROLL_REDRAW case immediately anyway.
But if you run an accelerated fbdev driver and have
FRAMEBUFFER_CONSOLE_LEGACY_ACCELERATION enabled, console scrolling is
slowed down by factors so that it feels as if you use a 9600 baud
terminal.
So, drop those unnecessary checks and speed up fbdev console
acceleration during bootup.

I messed up the delayed takover path in the locking conversion in
6e7da3af00 ("fbcon: Move console_lock for register/unlink/unregister").
If CONFIG_FRAMEBUFFER_CONSOLE_DEFERRED_TAKEOVER is enabled, fbcon take-over
doesn't take place when calling fbcon_fb_registered(). Instead, is deferred
using a workqueue and its fbcon_register_existing_fbs() function calls to
fbcon_fb_registered() again for each registered fbcon fb.
This leads to the console_lock tried to be held twice, causing a deadlock.
Fix it by re-extracting the lockless function and using it in the
delayed takeover path, where we need to hold the lock already to
iterate over the list of already registered fb. Well the current code
still is broken in there (since the list is protected by a
registration_lock, which we can't take here because it nests the other
way round with console_lock), but in the future this will be a list
protected by console_lock when this is all sorted out.
While reviewing the broken commit I realized that I've left some
outdated comments about the locking behind. Fix those too.

Accessing the one in fbmem.c without taking the right locks is a bad
idea. Instead maintain our own private copy, which is fully protected
by console_lock() (like everything else in fbcon.c). That copy is
serialized through fbcon_fb_registered/unregistered() calls.
Also this means we do not need to hold a full fb_info reference, which
is nice because doing so would mean a refcount loop between the
console and the fb_info. But it's also not nice since it means
console_lock() must be held absolutely everywhere. Well strictly
speaking we could still try to do some refcounting games again by
calling get_fb_info before we drop the console_lock. But things will
get tricky.

There's a bunch of confusions going on here:
- The deferred fbcon setup notifier should only be cleaned up from
fb_console_exit(), to be symmetric with fb_console_init()
- We also need to make sure we don't race with the work, which means
temporarily dropping the console lock (or we can deadlock)
- That also means no point in clearing deferred_takeover, we are
unloading everything anyway.
- Finally rename fbcon_exit to fbcon_release_all and move it, since
that's what's it doing when being called from consw->con_deinit
through fbcon_deinit.
To answer a question from Sam just quoting my own reply:
> We loose the call to fbcon_release_all() here [in fb_console_exit()].
> We have part of the old fbcon_exit() above, but miss the release parts.
Ah yes that's the entire point of this change. The release_all in the
fbcon exit path was only needed when fbcon was a separate module
indepedent from core fb.ko. Which means it was possible to unload fbcon
while having fbdev drivers registered.
But since we've merged them that has become impossible, so by the time the
fb.ko module can be unloaded, there's guaranteed to be no fbdev drivers
left. And hence removing them is pointless.

No idea why con2fb_acquire_newinfo() initializes much less than
fbcon_startup(), but so be it. From a quick look most of the
un-initialized stuff should be fairly harmless, but who knows.
Note that the error handling for the con2fb_acquire_newinfo() failure
case was very strange: Callers updated con2fb_map to the new value
before calling this function, but upon error con2fb_acquire_newinfo
reset it to the old value. Since I removed the call to fbcon_release
anyway that strange error path was sticking out like a sore thumb,
hence I removed it. Which also allows us to remove the oldidx
parameter from that function.

Allows us to delete a bunch of hand-rolled stuff using a timer plus a
separate work). Also to simplify the code we initialize the
cursor_work completely when we allocate the fbcon_ops structure,
instead of trying to cope with console re-initialization.
The motiviation here is that fbcon code stops using the fb_info.queue,
which helps with locking issues around cleanup and all that in a later
patch.
Also note that this allows us to ditch the hand-rolled work cleanup in
fbcon_exit - we already call fbcon_del_cursor_timer, which takes care
of everything. Plus this was racy anyway.
v2:
- Only INIT_DELAYED_WORK when kzalloc succeeded (Tetsuo)

Add a config option CONFIG_FRAMEBUFFER_CONSOLE_LEGACY_ACCELERATION to
enable bitblt and fillrect hardware acceleration in the framebuffer
console. If disabled, such acceleration will not be used, even if it is
supported by the graphics hardware driver.
If you plan to use DRM as your main graphics output system, you should
disable this option since it will prevent compiling in code which isn't
used later on when DRM takes over.
For all other configurations, e.g. if none of your graphic cards support
DRM (yet), DRM isn't available for your architecture, or you can't be
sure that the graphic card in the target system will support DRM, you
most likely want to enable this option.
In the non-accelerated case (e.g. when DRM is used), the inlined
fb_scrollmode() function is hardcoded to return SCROLL_REDRAW and as such the
compiler is able to optimize much unneccesary code away.
In this v3 patch version I additionally changed the GETVYRES() and GETVXRES()
macros to take a pointer to the fbcon_display struct. This fixes the build when
console rotation is enabled and helps the compiler again to optimize out code.

This reverts commit 39aead8373.
Revert the first (of 2) commits which disabled scrolling acceleration in
fbcon/fbdev. It introduced a regression for fbdev-supported graphic cards
because of the performance penalty by doing screen scrolling by software
instead of using the existing graphic card 2D hardware acceleration.
Console scrolling acceleration was disabled by dropping code which
checked at runtime the driver hardware capabilities for the
BINFO_HWACCEL_COPYAREA or FBINFO_HWACCEL_FILLRECT flags and if set, it
enabled scrollmode SCROLL_MOVE which uses hardware acceleration to move
screen contents. After dropping those checks scrollmode was hard-wired
to SCROLL_REDRAW instead, which forces all graphic cards to redraw every
character at the new screen position when scrolling.
This change effectively disabled all hardware-based scrolling acceleration for
ALL drivers, because now all kind of 2D hardware acceleration (bitblt,
fillrect) in the drivers isn't used any longer.
The original commit message mentions that only 3 DRM drivers (nouveau, omapdrm
and gma500) used hardware acceleration in the past and thus code for checking
and using scrolling acceleration is obsolete.
This statement is NOT TRUE, because beside the DRM drivers there are around 35
other fbdev drivers which depend on fbdev/fbcon and still provide hardware
acceleration for fbdev/fbcon.
The original commit message also states that syzbot found lots of bugs in fbcon
and thus it's "often the solution to just delete code and remove features".
This is true, and the bugs - which actually affected all users of fbcon,
including DRM - were fixed, or code was dropped like e.g. the support for
software scrollback in vgacon (commit 973c096f6a).
So to further analyze which bugs were found by syzbot, I've looked through all
patches in drivers/video which were tagged with syzbot or syzkaller back to
year 2005. The vast majority fixed the reported issues on a higher level, e.g.
when screen is to be resized, or when font size is to be changed. The few ones
which touched driver code fixed a real driver bug, e.g. by adding a check.
But NONE of those patches touched code of either the SCROLL_MOVE or the
SCROLL_REDRAW case.
That means, there was no real reason why SCROLL_MOVE had to be ripped-out and
just SCROLL_REDRAW had to be used instead. The only reason I can imagine so far
was that SCROLL_MOVE wasn't used by DRM and as such it was assumed that it
could go away. That argument completely missed the fact that SCROLL_MOVE is
still heavily used by fbdev (non-DRM) drivers.
Some people mention that using memcpy() instead of the hardware acceleration is
pretty much the same speed. But that's not true, at least not for older graphic
cards and machines where we see speed decreases by factor 10 and more and thus
this change leads to console responsiveness way worse than before.
That's why the original commit is to be reverted. By reverting we
reintroduce hardware-based scrolling acceleration and fix the
performance regression for fbdev drivers.
There isn't any impact on DRM when reverting those patches.

So ever since syzbot discovered fbcon, we have solid proof that it's
full of bugs. And often the solution is to just delete code and remove
features, e.g. 50145474f6 ("fbcon: remove soft scrollback code").
Now the problem is that most modern-ish drivers really only treat
fbcon as an dumb kernel console until userspace takes over, and Oops
printer for some emergencies. Looking at drm drivers and the basic
vesa/efi fbdev drivers shows that only 3 drivers support any kind of
acceleration:
- nouveau, seems to be enabled by default
- omapdrm, when a DMM remapper exists using remapper rewriting for
y/xpanning
- gma500, but that is getting deleted now for the GTT remapper trick,
and the accelerated copyarea never set the FBINFO_HWACCEL_COPYAREA
flag, so unused (and could be deleted already I think).
No other driver supportes accelerated fbcon. And fbcon is the only
user of this accel code (it's not exposed as uapi through ioctls),
which means we could garbage collect fairly enormous amounts of code
if we kill this.
Plus because syzbot only runs on virtual hardware, and none of the
drivers for that have acceleration, we'd remove a huge gap in testing.
And there's no other even remotely comprehensive testing aside from
syzbot.
This patch here just disables the acceleration code by always
redrawing when scrolling. The plan is that once this has been merged
for well over a year in released kernels, we can start to go around
and delete a lot of code.
v2:
- Drop a few more unused local variables, somehow I missed the
compiler warnings (Sam)
- Fix typo in comment (Jiri)
- add a todo entry for the cleanup (Thomas)
v3: Remove more unused variables (0day)

For user-provided fonts, the framebuffer layer is using a magic
negative-indexing macro, FNTCHARCNT(), to keep track of their number of
characters:
#define FNTCHARCNT(fd) (((int *)(fd))[-3])
For built-in fonts, it is using hard-coded values (256). This results in
something like the following:
map.length = (ops->p->userfont) ?
FNTCHARCNT(ops->p->fontdata) : 256;
This is unsatisfactory. In fact, there is already a `charcount` field in
our virtual console descriptor (see `struct console_font` inside `struct
vc_data`), let us use it:
map.length = vc->vc_font.charcount;
Recently we added a `charcount` field to `struct font_desc`. Use it to set
`vc->vc_font.charcount` properly. The idea is:
- We only use FNTCHARCNT() on `vc->vc_font.data` and `p->fontdata`.
Assume FNTCHARCNT() is working as intended;
- Whenever `vc->vc_font.data` is set, also set `vc->vc_font.charcount`
properly;
- We can now replace `FNTCHARCNT(vc->vc_font.data)` with
`vc->vc_font.charcount`;
- Since `p->fontdata` always point to the same font data buffer with
`vc->vc_font.data`, we can also replace `FNTCHARCNT(p->fontdata)` with
`vc->vc_font.charcount`.
In conclusion, set `vc->vc_font.charcount` properly in fbcon_startup(),
fbcon_init(), fbcon_set_disp() and fbcon_do_set_font(), then replace
FNTCHARCNT() with `vc->vc_font.charcount`. No more if-else between
negative-indexing macros and hard-coded values.
Do not include <linux/font.h> in fbcon_rotate.c and tileblit.c, since they
no longer need it.
Depends on patch "Fonts: Add charcount field to font_desc".
