This converts some of the visually simpler cases that have been split
over multiple lines. I only did the ones that are easy to verify the
resulting diff by having just that final GFP_KERNEL argument on the next
line.
Somebody should probably do a proper coccinelle script for this, but for
me the trivial script actually resulted in an assertion failure in the
middle of the script. I probably had made it a bit _too_ trivial.
So after fighting that far a while I decided to just do some of the
syntactically simpler cases with variations of the previous 'sed'
scripts.
The more syntactically complex multi-line cases would mostly really want
whitespace cleanup anyway.

This was done entirely with mindless brute force, using
git grep -l '\<k[vmz]*alloc_objs*(.*, GFP_KERNEL)' |
xargs sed -i 's/\(alloc_objs*(.*\), GFP_KERNEL)/\1)/'
to convert the new alloc_obj() users that had a simple GFP_KERNEL
argument to just drop that argument.
Note that due to the extreme simplicity of the scripting, any slightly
more complex cases spread over multiple lines would not be triggered:
they definitely exist, but this covers the vast bulk of the cases, and
the resulting diff is also then easier to check automatically.
For the same reason the 'flex' versions will be done as a separate
conversion.

This is the result of running the Coccinelle script from
scripts/coccinelle/api/kmalloc_objs.cocci. The script is designed to
avoid scalar types (which need careful case-by-case checking), and
instead replace kmalloc-family calls that allocate struct or union
object instances:
Single allocations: kmalloc(sizeof(TYPE), ...)
are replaced with: kmalloc_obj(TYPE, ...)
Array allocations: kmalloc_array(COUNT, sizeof(TYPE), ...)
are replaced with: kmalloc_objs(TYPE, COUNT, ...)
Flex array allocations: kmalloc(struct_size(PTR, FAM, COUNT), ...)
are replaced with: kmalloc_flex(*PTR, FAM, COUNT, ...)
(where TYPE may also be *VAR)
The resulting allocations no longer return "void *", instead returning
"TYPE *".

Here is the small amount of tty and serial driver updates for 7.0-rc1.
Nothing major in here at all, just some driver updates and minor tweaks
and cleanups including:
- sh-sci serial driver updates
- 8250 driver updates
- attempt to make the tty ports have their own workqueue, but was
reverted after testing found it to have problems on some platforms.
This will probably come back for 7.1 after it has been reworked and
resubmitted
- other tiny tty driver changes
All of these have been in linux-next for a while with no reported
problems.

do_con_write(), fbcon_redraw.*() invoke console_conditional_schedule()
which is a conditional scheduling point based on printk's internal
variables console_may_schedule. It may only be used if the console lock
is acquired for instance via console_lock() or console_trylock().
Prinkt sets the internal variable to 1 (and allows to schedule)
if the console lock has been acquired via console_lock(). The trylock
does not allow it.
The console_conditional_schedule() invocation in do_con_write() is
invoked shortly before console_unlock().
The console_conditional_schedule() invocation in fbcon_redraw.*()
original from fbcon_scroll() / vt's con_scroll() which originate from a
line feed.
In console_unlock() the variable is set to 0 (forbids to schedule) and
it tries to schedule while making progress printing. This is brand new
compared to when console_conditional_schedule() was added in v2.4.9.11.
In v2.6.38-rc3, console_unlock() (started its existence) iterated over
all consoles and flushed them with disabled interrupts. A scheduling
attempt here was not possible, it relied that a long print scheduled
before console_unlock().
Since commit 8d91f8b153 ("printk: do cond_resched() between lines
while outputting to consoles"), which appeared in v4.5-rc1,
console_unlock() attempts to schedule if it was allowed to schedule
while during console_lock(). Each record is idealy one line so after
every line feed.
This console_conditional_schedule() is also only relevant on
PREEMPT_NONE and PREEMPT_VOLUNTARY builds. In other configurations
cond_resched() becomes a nop and has no impact.
I'm bringing this all up just proof that it is not required anymore. It
becomes a problem on a PREEMPT_RT build with debug code enabled because
that might_sleep() in cond_resched() remains and triggers a warnings.
This is due to
legacy_kthread_func-> console_flush_one_record -> vt_console_print-> lf
-> con_scroll -> fbcon_scroll
and vt_console_print() acquires a spinlock_t which does not allow a
voluntary schedule. There is no need to fb_scroll() to schedule since
console_flush_one_record() attempts to schedule after each line.
!PREEMPT_RT is not affected because the legacy printing thread is only
enabled on PREEMPT_RT builds.
Therefore I suggest to remove console_conditional_schedule().

of putting kernel.h on a diet.
Removing hex.h from kernel.h means that 36K C source files don't have to
pay the price of parsing hex.h for the roughly 120 C source files that
need it.
This change has been build-tested with allmodconfig on most ARCHes. Also,

Prior to a fix to clang's scope checker in clang 17 [1], all labels in a
function were validated as potential targets of all asm gotos in a
function, regardless of whether they actually were a target of an asm
goto call, resulting in false positive errors about skipping over
variables marked with the cleanup attribute.
To workaround this error, split up the bodies of the case statements in
vt_do_diacrit() into their own functions so that the scope checker does
not trip up on the multiple instances of __free().

The row/column bounds (for a screen window box) are changed from
'offset one' to 'offset zero' and bound to the screen size using:
v->xs = min_t(u16, v->xs - 1, vc->vc_cols - 1);
This has the side effect of converting zero to the limit.
A check I'm adding to min_t() reports that (u16)(v->xs - 1) (etc)
discards signiticant bits (because v->xs is promoted to 'int' before
the addition).
If v->xs is zero (it comes from userspace) it converts -1 to 0xffff.
This is then bounded to 'vc->vc_cols - 1' which will be fine.
Replace with:
v->xs = umin(v->xs - 1, vc->vc_cols - 1);
which again converts a -1 to unsigned - this time to 0xffffffff,
with the same overall effect.
Whether zero is meant to mean the 'maximum size' is unknown.
I can't find any documentation for the ioctl and it pre-dates git.
Detected by an extra check added to min_t().

The maximum number of keycodes got bumped to 256 a very long time ago,
but the default keymaps were never adjusted to match. This is causing
the kernel to interpret keycodes above 127 as U+0000 if the shipped
generated keymap is used.
Fix this by mapping all keycodes above 127 to K_HOLE so the kernel
ignores them.
The contents of this patche were generated by rerunning `loadkeys
--mktable --unicode` and only including the changes to map keycodes
above 127 to K_HOLE.

The console dimension and cursor position are available through the
/dev/vcsa interface already. However the /dev/vcsa header format uses
single-byte fields therefore those values are clamped to 255.
As surprizing as this may seem, some people do use 240-column 67-row
screens (a 1920x1080 monitor with 8x16 pixel fonts) which is getting
close to the limit. Monitors with higher resolution are not uncommon
these days (3840x2160 producing a 480x135 character display) and it is
just a matter of time before someone with, say, a braille display using
the Linux VT console and BRLTTY on such a screen reports a bug about
missing and oddly misaligned screen content.
Let's add VT_GETCONSIZECSRPOS for the retrieval of console size and cursor
position without byte-sized limitations. The actual console size limit as
encoded in vt.c is 32767x32767 so using a short here is appropriate. Then
this can be used to get the cursor position when /dev/vcsa reports 255.
The screen dimension may already be obtained using TIOCGWINSZ and adding
the same information to VT_GETCONSIZECSRPOS might be redundant. However
applications that care about cursor position also care about display
size and having 2 separate system calls to obtain them separately is
wasteful. Also, the cursor position can be queried by writing "\e[6n" to
a tty and reading back the result but that may be done only by the actual
application using that tty and not a sideline observer.

This is comprised of 3 aspects:
- Take note of when applications advertise bracketed paste support via
"\e[?2004h" and "\e[?2004l".
- Insert bracketed paste markers ("\e[200~" and "\e[201~") around pasted
content in paste_selection() when bracketed paste is active.
- Add TIOCL_GETBRACKETEDPASTE to return bracketed paste status so user
space daemons implementing cut-and-paste functionality (e.g. gpm,
BRLTTY) may know when to insert bracketed paste markers.

In the Unicode screen buffer, we follow double-width code points with a
space to maintain proper column alignment. This, however, creates
semantic problems when e.g. using cut and paste.
Let's use a better code point for the column padding's purpose i.e. a
zero-width space rather than a full space. This way the combination
retains a width of 2.

Try replacing any decomposed Unicode sequence by the corresponding
recomposed code point. Code point to glyph correspondance works best
after recomposition, and this apply mostly to single-width code points
therefore we can't preserve them in their decomposed form anyway.

The generated table maps base character + combining mark pairs to their
precomposed equivalents using Python's unicodedata module.
The default script behavior is to create a table with most commonly used
Latin, Greek, and Cyrillic recomposition pairs only. It is much smaller
than the table with all possible recomposition pairs (71 entries vs 1000
entries). But if one needs/wants the full table then simply running the
script with the --full argument will generate it.

Zero-width Unicode code points are causing misalignment in vertically
aligned content, disrupting the visual layout. Let's handle zero-width
code points more intelligently.
Double-width code points are stored in the screen grid followed by a white
space code point to create the expected screen layout. When a double-width
code point is followed by a zero-width code point in the console incoming
bytestream (e.g., an emoji with a presentation selector) then we may
replace the white space padding by that zero-width code point instead of
dropping it. This maximize screen content information while preserving
proper layout.
If a zero-width code point is preceded by a single-width code point then
the above trick is not possible and such zero-width code point must
be dropped.
VS16 (Variation Selector 16, U+FE0F) is special as it typically doubles
the width of the preceding single-width code point. We handle that case
by giving VS16 a width of 1 instead of 0 when that happens.
