[RESEND PATCH v3 1/2] VT: Add KDFONTINFO ioctl

From: Alexey Gladkov
Date: Tue Apr 02 2024 - 06:34:32 EST


Each driver has its own restrictions on font size. There is currently no
way to understand what the requirements are. The new ioctl allows
userspace to get the minmum and maximum font size values.
