<id>urn:sha1:b08ee4d666f216a6f9e7194a9b335147d4717f33</id>
<content type='text'>
Add a compile-in option for Terminus 10x18 bitmap console font
to improve readability on modern laptop displays.

On modern 13-16 inch laptop displays with high pixel density,
common scaled resolutions like 1280x800 and 1440x900 are widely
used.

At these resolutions, VGA 8x16 is too small and difficult to
read for extended periods, while Terminus 16x32 is too large,
providing only 25-28 rows. The existing 10x18 font has poor
readability.

Terminus 10x18 provides improved readability with its clean,
fixed-width design while maintaining practical row counts
(44-50 rows).

A comfortable and readable built-in font for early boot messages,
kernel panics or whenever userspace is unavailable.

The font was converted from standard Terminus ter-i18b.psf using
psftools and formatted to match kernel font conventions.

This patch is non-intrusive, no options are enabled by default
so most users won't notice a thing.

<title>fbcon: Increase maximum font width x height to 64 x 128</title>

<content type='text'>
By using bitmaps we actually support whatever size we would want, but
the console currently limits fonts to 64x128 (which gives 60x16 text on
4k screens), so we don't need more for now, and we can easily increase
later.

Subsystems are hard-coding the number of characters of our built-in fonts
as 256. Include that information in our kernel font descriptor, `struct
font_desc`.

`width` and `height` are defined as unsigned in our UAPI font descriptor
`struct console_font`. Make them unsigned in our kernel font descriptor
`struct font_desc`, too.

Also, change the corresponding printk() format identifiers from `%d` to
`%u`, in sti_select_fbfont().

<title>Fonts: Support FONT_EXTRA_WORDS macros for built-in fonts</title>

<id>urn:sha1:6735b4632def0640dbdf4eb9f99816aca18c4f16</id>
<content type='text'>
syzbot has reported an issue in the framebuffer layer, where a malicious
user may overflow our built-in font data buffers.

In order to perform a reliable range check, subsystems need to know
`FONTDATAMAX` for each built-in font. Unfortunately, our font descriptor,
`struct console_font` does not contain `FONTDATAMAX`, and is part of the
UAPI, making it infeasible to modify it.

For user-provided fonts, the framebuffer layer resolves this issue by
reserving four extra words at the beginning of data buffers. Later,
whenever a function needs to access them, it simply uses the following
macros:

Recently we have gathered all the above macros to &lt;linux/font.h&gt;. Let us
do the same thing for built-in fonts, prepend four extra words (including
`FONTDATAMAX`) to their data buffers, so that subsystems can use these
macros for all fonts, no matter built-in or user-provided.

This patch depends on patch "fbdev, newport_con: Move FONT_EXTRA_WORDS
macros into linux/font.h".

drivers/video/console/newport_con.c is borrowing FONT_EXTRA_WORDS macros
from drivers/video/fbdev/core/fbcon.h. To keep things simple, move all
definitions into &lt;linux/font.h&gt;.

Since newport_con now uses four extra words, initialize the fourth word in
newport_set_font() properly.

This patch adds an option to compile-in a high resolution
and large Terminus (ter16x32) bitmap console font for use with
HiDPI and Retina screens.

The font was convereted from standard Terminus ter-i32b.psf
(size 16x32) with the help of psftools and minor hand editing
deleting useless characters.

This patch is non-intrusive, no options are enabled by default so most
users won't notice a thing.

I am placing my changes under the GPL 2.0 just as source Terminus font.
