[Patch 8/9]: vt: Enhancements to the VT ioctl interface
From: Alan Mackenzie
Date: Thu Aug 27 2026 - 14:58:37 EST
vt: 32b glyph: 10. Enhancements to the VT ioctl interface
Handle the current 16-bit P/GIO_UNIMAP ioctls by converting
to/from 32-bit code-points/glyph numbers. Add handling for new
32-bit ioctls P/GIO_UNIMAP21. Convert to and from __user in
vt_ioctl.c rather than in vt.c or consolemap.c.
