A mirror of the official Linux kernel repository just in case
a90c275eb1
Revert the removal of code handling extra VT_RESIZEX ioctl's parameters
beyond those that VT_RESIZE supports, fixing a functional regression
causing `svgatextmode' not to resize the VT anymore.
As a consequence of the reverted change when the video adapter is
reprogrammed from the original say 80x25 text mode using a 9x16
character cell (720x400 pixel resolution) to say 80x37 text mode and the
same character cell (720x592 pixel resolution), the VT geometry does not
get updated and only upper two thirds of the screen are used for the VT,
and the lower part remains blank. The proportions change according to
text mode geometries chosen.
Revert the change verbatim then, bringing back previous VT resizing.

Linux kernel ============ There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/ There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
