[PATCH 3.4 142/177] tty/vt: don't set font mappings on vc not supporting this

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



From: Imre Deak <imre.deak@xxxxxxxxx>

3.4.106-rc1 review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------


commit 9e326f78713a4421fe11afc2ddeac07698fac131 upstream.

We can call this function for a dummy console that doesn't support
setting the font mapping, which will result in a null ptr BUG. So check
for this case and return error for consoles w/o font mapping support.

[lizf: Backported to 3.4: just return -EINVAL as we don't need to unlock]
