Rationale:
Reduces attack surface on kernel devs opening the links for MITM
as HTTPS traffic is much harder to manipulate.
Deterministic algorithm:
For each file:
For each line:
If doesn't contain `\bxmlns\b`:
For each link, `\bhttp://[^# \t\r\n]*(?:\w|/)`:
If both the HTTP and HTTPS versions
return 200 OK and serve the same content:
Replace HTTP with HTTPS.

Introduction
|
|
------------
|
|
|
|
The Linux kernel code has been rewritten to use Unicode to map
|
|
characters to fonts. By downloading a single Unicode-to-font table,
|
|
both the eight-bit character sets and UTF-8 mode are changed to use
|
|
the font as indicated.
|
|
|
|
This changes the semantics of the eight-bit character tables subtly.
|
|
The four character tables are now:
|
|
|
|
=============== =============================== ================
|
|
Map symbol Map name Escape code (G0)
|
|
=============== =============================== ================
|
|
LAT1_MAP Latin-1 (ISO 8859-1) ESC ( B
|
|
GRAF_MAP DEC VT100 pseudographics ESC ( 0
|
|
IBMPC_MAP IBM code page 437 ESC ( U
|
|
USER_MAP User defined ESC ( K
|
|
=============== =============================== ================
|
|
|
|
In particular, ESC ( U is no longer "straight to font", since the font
|
|
might be completely different than the IBM character set. This
|
|
permits for example the use of block graphics even with a Latin-1 font
|
|
loaded.
|
|
|
|
Note that although these codes are similar to ISO 2022, neither the
|
|
codes nor their uses match ISO 2022; Linux has two 8-bit codes (G0 and
|
|
G1), whereas ISO 2022 has four 7-bit codes (G0-G3).
|
|
|
|
In accordance with the Unicode standard/ISO 10646 the range U+F000 to
|
|
U+F8FF has been reserved for OS-wide allocation (the Unicode Standard
|
|
refers to this as a "Corporate Zone", since this is inaccurate for
|
|
Linux we call it the "Linux Zone"). U+F000 was picked as the starting
|
|
point since it lets the direct-mapping area start on a large power of
|
|
two (in case 1024- or 2048-character fonts ever become necessary).
|
|
This leaves U+E000 to U+EFFF as End User Zone.
|
|
|
|
[v1.2]: The Unicodes range from U+F000 and up to U+F7FF have been
|
|
hard-coded to map directly to the loaded font, bypassing the
|
|
translation table. The user-defined map now defaults to U+F000 to
|
|
U+F0FF, emulating the previous behaviour. In practice, this range
|
|
might be shorter; for example, vgacon can only handle 256-character
|
|
(U+F000..U+F0FF) or 512-character (U+F000..U+F1FF) fonts.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Actual characters assigned in the Linux Zone
|
|
--------------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
In addition, the following characters not present in Unicode 1.1.4
|
|
have been defined; these are used by the DEC VT graphics map. [v1.2]
|
|
THIS USE IS OBSOLETE AND SHOULD NO LONGER BE USED; PLEASE SEE BELOW.
|
|
|
|
====== ======================================
|
|
U+F800 DEC VT GRAPHICS HORIZONTAL LINE SCAN 1
|
|
U+F801 DEC VT GRAPHICS HORIZONTAL LINE SCAN 3
|
|
U+F803 DEC VT GRAPHICS HORIZONTAL LINE SCAN 7
|
|
U+F804 DEC VT GRAPHICS HORIZONTAL LINE SCAN 9
|
|
====== ======================================
|
|
|
|
The DEC VT220 uses a 6x10 character matrix, and these characters form
|
|
a smooth progression in the DEC VT graphics character set. I have
|
|
omitted the scan 5 line, since it is also used as a block-graphics
|
|
character, and hence has been coded as U+2500 FORMS LIGHT HORIZONTAL.
|
|
|
|
[v1.3]: These characters have been officially added to Unicode 3.2.0;
|
|
they are added at U+23BA, U+23BB, U+23BC, U+23BD. Linux now uses the
|
|
new values.
|
|
|
|
[v1.2]: The following characters have been added to represent common
|
|
keyboard symbols that are unlikely to ever be added to Unicode proper
|
|
since they are horribly vendor-specific. This, of course, is an
|
|
excellent example of horrible design.

Klingon language support
|
|
------------------------
|
|
|
|
In 1996, Linux was the first operating system in the world to add
|
|
support for the artificial language Klingon, created by Marc Okrand
|
|
for the "Star Trek" television series. This encoding was later
|
|
adopted by the ConScript Unicode Registry and proposed (but ultimately
|
|
rejected) for inclusion in Unicode Plane 1. Thus, it remains as a
|
|
Linux/CSUR private assignment in the Linux Zone.
|
|
|
|
This encoding has been endorsed by the Klingon Language Institute.
|
|
For more information, contact them at:
|
|
|
|
http://www.kli.org/
|
|
|
|
Since the characters in the beginning of the Linux CZ have been more
|
|
of the dingbats/symbols/forms type and this is a language, I have
|
|
located it at the end, on a 16-cell boundary in keeping with standard
|
|
Unicode practice.
|
|
|
|
.. note::
|
|
|
|
This range is now officially managed by the ConScript Unicode
|
|
Registry. The normative reference is at:
|
|
|
|
https://www.evertype.com/standards/csur/klingon.html
|
|
|
|
Klingon has an alphabet of 26 characters, a positional numeric writing
|
|
system with 10 digits, and is written left-to-right, top-to-bottom.
|
|
|
|
Several glyph forms for the Klingon alphabet have been proposed.
|
|
However, since the set of symbols appear to be consistent throughout,
|
|
with only the actual shapes being different, in keeping with standard
|
|
Unicode practice these differences are considered font variants.

Other Fictional and Artificial Scripts
|
|
--------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
Since the assignment of the Klingon Linux Unicode block, a registry of
|
|
fictional and artificial scripts has been established by John Cowan
|
|
<jcowan@reutershealth.com> and Michael Everson <everson@evertype.com>.
|
|
The ConScript Unicode Registry is accessible at:
|
|
|
|
https://www.evertype.com/standards/csur/
|
|
|
|
The ranges used fall at the low end of the End User Zone and can hence
|
|
not be normatively assigned, but it is recommended that people who
|
|
wish to encode fictional scripts use these codes, in the interest of
|
|
interoperability. For Klingon, CSUR has adopted the Linux encoding.
|
|
The CSUR people are driving adding Tengwar and Cirth into Unicode
|
|
Plane 1; the addition of Klingon to Unicode Plane 1 has been rejected
|
|
and so the above encoding remains official.
