Date: Thu, 29 Oct 2020 13:09:25 +0100 From: Tammo Block <tammo.block@...il.com> To: linux-kernel@...r.kernel.org Cc: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@...uxfoundation.org>, Jiri Slaby <jslaby@...e.com> Subject: [PATCH v4 0/6] vt: Add SRG mouse reporting features Hi everybody, this patchset adds xterm like mouse reporting features to the console. The linux virtual console has support for mouse reporting since 1994 or so, but the kernel only supports the original X10/X11 style standard protocols. To support more protocols these patches expand the kernel structures in a up- and downwards compatible way, see the last patch for detailed documentation and pointers to even more detailed docs. The main goal is to become compatible with xterm, as most TUI software today is tested in xterm or another compatible terminal. Support by the mouse daemons (consolation, gpm) will be needed too. Kind regards, Tammo Changes from v3: - Rebase against v5.10-rc1 Changes from v2: - Rename enum and and use it as a type for vc_protocol_mouse - Correct cding style and new spelling error Changes from v1: - Really fixed the style und spelling errors (Sorry Randy!) - Created defines and enums for better readability - Made variable to store last pressed button static and moved into mouse_report function Changes from v0: - Fixed al the style the things mentioned by Jiri and Randy (thanks!) - Change datastructure for report (better compatibility) - Changed documentation in large parts accordingly - Added URXVT protocol Tammo Block (6): tiocl.h: Change/Add defines for mouse report console_struct.h: Add members for mouse report vt/vt: Enable mode change via escape sequence vt/vt: Add SRG mouse reporting protocol vt/vt: Add URXVT mouse reporting protocol Documentation: Describe console mouse reporting .../admin-guide/console-mouse-reporting.rst | 88 +++++++++++++++++++ Documentation/admin-guide/index.rst | 1 + drivers/tty/vt/vt.c | 45 ++++++++-- include/linux/console_struct.h | 9 +- include/uapi/linux/tiocl.h | 8 +- 5 files changed, 143 insertions(+), 8 deletions(-) create mode 100644 Documentation/admin-guide/console-mouse-reporting.rst -- 2.28.0
