[PATCH 2/2] s390/sclp_vt220: convert newlines to CRLF instead of LFCR

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

 



According to the VT220 specification the possible character combinations
sent on RETURN are only CR or CRLF [0].

	The Return key sends either a CR character (0/13) or a CR
	character (0/13) and an LF character (0/10), depending on the
	set/reset state of line feed/new line mode (LNM).

The sclip/vt220 driver however uses LFCR. This can confuse tools, for
example the kunit runner.

I'm not entirely sure that SCLP is meant to follow the VT220 standard
here. The only other reference observation I found is the QEMU code and
they are doing "what Linux does".
It would also be possible to hack around this in the kunit runner.
