commit 0c9b1965faddad7534b6974b5b36c4ad37998f8e upstream.

User space using poll() on /dev/vcs devices are not awaken when a
screen size change occurs. Let's fix that.

<title>vt: change SGR 21 to follow the standards</title>

commit 65d9982d7e523a1a8e7c9af012da0d166f72fc56 upstream.

ECMA-48 [1] (aka ISO 6429) has defined SGR 21 as "doubly underlined"
since at least March 1984.  The Linux kernel has treated it as SGR 22
"normal intensity" since it was added in Linux-0.96b in June 1992.
Before that, it was simply ignored.  Other terminal emulators have
either ignored it, or treat it as double underline now.  xterm for
example added support in its 304 release (May 2014) [2] where it was
previously ignoring it.

Changing this behavior shouldn't be an issue:
- It isn't a named capability in ncurses's terminfo database, so no
  script is using libtinfo/libcurses to look this up, or using tput
  to query &amp; output the right sequence.
- Any script assuming SGR 21 will reset intensity in all terminals
  already do not work correctly on non-Linux VTs (including running
  under screen/tmux/etc...).
- If someone has written a script that only runs in the Linux VT, and
  they're using SGR 21 (instead of SGR 22), the output should still
  be readable.

imo it's important to change this as the Linux VT's non-conformance
is sometimes used as an argument for other terminal emulators to not
implement SGR 21 at all, or do so incorrectly.

commit f1869a890cdedb92a3fab969db5d0fd982850273 upstream.

Tabs on a console with long lines do not wrap properly, so correctly
account for the line length when computing the tab placement location.

commit 6987dc8a70976561d22450b5858fc9767788cc1c upstream.

Only read access is checked before this call.

Actually, at the moment this is not an issue, as every in-tree arch does
the same manual checks for VERIFY_READ vs VERIFY_WRITE, relying on the MMU
to tell them apart, but this wasn't the case in the past and may happen
again on some odd arch in the future.

If anyone cares about 3.7 and earlier, this is a security hole (untested)
on real 80386 CPUs.

commit 42acfc6615f47e465731c263bee0c799edb098f2 upstream.

In csi_J(3), the third parameter of scr_memsetw (vc_screenbuf_size) is
divided by 2 inappropriatelly. But scr_memsetw expects size, not
count, because it divides the size by 2 on its own before doing actual
memset-by-words.

So remove the bogus division.

[ Upstream commit 510cccb5b0c8868a2b302a0ab524da7912da648b ]

The size of individual keymap in drivers/tty/vt/keyboard.c is NR_KEYS,
which is currently 256, whereas number of keys/buttons in input device (and
therefor in key_down) is much larger - KEY_CNT - 768, and that can cause
out-of-bound access when we do

	sym = U(key_maps[0][k]);

with large 'k'.

To fix it we should not attempt iterating beyond smaller of NR_KEYS and
KEY_CNT.

Also while at it let's switch to for_each_set_bit() instead of open-coding
it.

commit 19e3ae6b4f07a87822c1c9e7ed99d31860e701af upstream.

The vcs device's poll/fasync support relies on the vt notifier to signal
changes to the screen content.  Notifier invocations were missing for
changes that comes through the selection interface though.  Fix that.

Tested with BRLTTY 5.2.
