thorpej fc96443d15 New callout mechanism with two major improvements over the old
timeout()/untimeout() API:
- Clients supply callout handle storage, thus eliminating problems of
  resource allocation.
- Insertion and removal of callouts is constant time, important as
  this facility is used quite a lot in the kernel.

The old timeout()/untimeout() API has been removed from the kernel.

ad ea0751f1aa Finish with fixing the SOFTCURSOR stuff. 2000-01-25 02:44:03 +00:00
ad e75404417a Add and use pcdisplay_cursor_init(). Still a couple of nits with this, I
will resolve when I can test properly.

drochner 106e6868db fix off-by-one error in font table initialisation
(mostly harmless because it is zero initialized in most cases anyway)

drochner 162086b1cd do the screen switch asynchronously (via timeout(0)) if possible,
this hopefully helps for the (very rare) display corruption reported
in PR kern/8628

mycroft d2b362b685 Only update the cursor state if it's enabled. 1999-11-03 15:55:27 +00:00
ad 51de3bc208 PCDISPLAY_SOFTCURSOR: remember state of cursor during full screen scroll. 1999-09-29 17:29:24 +00:00
ad 97253f4537 Software cursor is not enabled at boot time. Hardware cursor is. 1999-09-19 22:57:24 +00:00
ad f96e055d70 - mc6845's cursor is disabled by punching bit 6 of cursor start register.
- Add new option (PCDISPLAY_SOFTCURSOR) that provides a large, non-blinking
  cursor in software.

drochner 2a614bc836 add support for 80x40 screens 1999-04-10 14:02:11 +00:00
drochner 00a4d0521a use defopted WSCONS_SUPPORT_PCVTFONTS, refuse to load pcvt fonts if this
option is not given, suppress complaints in non-debug case
1999-04-01 11:52:42 +00:00
drochner b2c812d776 set "fontset" variables to 0 if no appropriate font was found for a
freshly allocated screen, should fix panic if "vga_mapchar()" it
attempted later
1999-03-22 18:24:23 +00:00
drochner bd047d30a0 complete mapping table for pcvt fonts, make dual-font selection work
as intended
1999-02-20 18:27:53 +00:00
drochner dbdaf91650 change the "mapchar" interface to return a "quality" or "match level"
arguments which allows to find approximations for characters which are
not present in a font
1999-02-12 11:25:23 +00:00
drochner 23cfea8327 -implement new wscons font handling with separate download and selection
calls
-support use of 2 fonts simultanously; this costs the ability to
"highlight", ie to use the upper 8 colours
-define screen types "80x25bf" and "80x50bf" which use this ability
-add conditional code to deal with the weird mapping of pcvt's
supplemental fonts
1999-01-13 16:48:58 +00:00
drochner 98e630dbe0 Allow to deallocate also the currently visible virtual screen (unless
it is the console).
This requires vva_show_screen() to catch the case where it has no screen
to switch from, ie no need to save the current state.

augustss 44df4dcc85 Add a wscons display type `unknown' that the generic VGA driver can
return until someone fixes it for real.

eeh a2dd74ed79 Merge paddr_t changes into the main branch. 1998-08-13 02:10:37 +00:00
drochner 3d545acb51 Overload the generic "copyrows" function by a private one which implents
a "fast scroll" by setting the display start in memory.
(Only implemented for "scroll up" because this is more used. "scroll down"
is easy to add.)
This moves the semantics of "copyrows" to something like "moverows";
the contents of the new visible lines at the bottom is undefined.
The emulations can live without the original "copy" semantics.

drochner 3f10af182d do the charcter mapping in a separate function 1998-06-26 21:05:20 +00:00
drochner bf42a9e321 adapt to wscons changes, treat incoming characters always as ISO
(ie, convert to IBM)
1998-06-20 21:55:05 +00:00
drochner 96840772f5 reserve the VGA BIOS area (but don't worry if it fails) 1998-06-12 18:41:01 +00:00
drochner b84dbbb37c Put definitions and subroutines needed for all PC display adapters
(MGA/GCA and compatibles) into global headers / source files.
Let the VGA driver use them.

drochner 95bdb660ed Simple screen attribute handling for wscons.
The graphics device driver passes a "default attribute" for normal text
output to the wscons framework. If the emulation module needs more
attributes (for different "renditions") it can allocate them via a
callback.
For now, only the "sun" emulation makes use of it.
