From 8b92e87d39bfd046e7581e1fe0f40eac40f88608 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Alan Cox Date: Sat, 19 Sep 2009 13:13:24 -0700 Subject: vt: add an event interface This is needed and requested in various forms for ConsoleKit, screenblank handling and the like so do the job with a single interface. Also build the interface so that unlike VT_WAITACTIVE and friends it won't miss events. FIXME: Should this be a waitactive ioctl or a new device file you can poll and read events from. We need the code anyway to fix up the existing broken wait for console switch logic but the ConsoleKit people would prefer the new device to the ioctl we have here Signed-off-by: Alan Cox Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman --- include/linux/vt.h | 14 ++++++++++++++ 1 file changed, 14 insertions(+) (limited to 'include/linux/vt.h') diff --git a/include/linux/vt.h b/include/linux/vt.h index 02c1c0288770..89c03a11e193 100644 --- a/include/linux/vt.h +++ b/include/linux/vt.h @@ -74,4 +74,18 @@ struct vt_consize { #define VT_UNLOCKSWITCH 0x560C /* allow vt switching */ #define VT_GETHIFONTMASK 0x560D /* return hi font mask */ +struct vt_event { + unsigned int event; +#define VT_EVENT_SWITCH 0x0001 /* Console switch */ +#define VT_EVENT_BLANK 0x0002 /* Screen blank */ +#define VT_EVENT_UNBLANK 0x0004 /* Screen unblank */ +#define VT_EVENT_RESIZE 0x0008 /* Resize display */ +#define VT_MAX_EVENT 0x000F + unsigned int old; /* Old console */ + unsigned int new; /* New console (if changing) */ + unsigned int pad[4]; /* Padding for expansion */ +}; + +#define VT_WAITEVENT 0x560E /* Wait for an event */ + #endif /* _LINUX_VT_H */ -- cgit v1.2.3 From a5eb56242d1e2d82938a066219ac1cdf0d68adc8 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Alan Cox Date: Sat, 19 Sep 2009 13:13:25 -0700 Subject: vt: move kernel stuff out of vt.h We have vt_kern.h for this Signed-off-by: Alan Cox Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman --- include/linux/vt.h | 11 ----------- include/linux/vt_kern.h | 12 ++++++++++++ 2 files changed, 12 insertions(+), 11 deletions(-) (limited to 'include/linux/vt.h') diff --git a/include/linux/vt.h b/include/linux/vt.h index 89c03a11e193..831daf64b90c 100644 --- a/include/linux/vt.h +++ b/include/linux/vt.h @@ -1,17 +1,6 @@ #ifndef _LINUX_VT_H #define _LINUX_VT_H -#ifdef __KERNEL__ -struct notifier_block; - -struct vt_notifier_param { - struct vc_data *vc; /* VC on which the update happened */ - unsigned int c; /* Printed char */ -}; - -extern int register_vt_notifier(struct notifier_block *nb); -extern int unregister_vt_notifier(struct notifier_block *nb); -#endif /* * These constants are also useful for user-level apps (e.g., VC diff --git a/include/linux/vt_kern.h b/include/linux/vt_kern.h index 5b53efe41b5c..c0c4e1103a73 100644 --- a/include/linux/vt_kern.h +++ b/include/linux/vt_kern.h @@ -13,6 +13,7 @@ #include #include #include +#include /* * Presently, a lot of graphics programs do not restore the contents of @@ -118,4 +119,15 @@ struct vt_spawn_console { extern struct vt_spawn_console vt_spawn_con; extern int vt_move_to_console(unsigned int vt, int alloc); + +/* Interfaces for VC notification of character events (for accessibility etc) */ + +struct vt_notifier_param { + struct vc_data *vc; /* VC on which the update happened */ + unsigned int c; /* Printed char */ +}; + +extern int register_vt_notifier(struct notifier_block *nb); +extern int unregister_vt_notifier(struct notifier_block *nb); + #endif /* _VT_KERN_H */ -- cgit v1.2.3 From d3b5cffcf84a8bdc7073dce4745d67c72629af85 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Alan Cox Date: Sat, 19 Sep 2009 13:13:26 -0700 Subject: vt: add an activate and lock X and other graphical interfaces need to be able to flip to a console and lock it into graphics mode without races.
