Merge tag 'pinctrl-v7.3-1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/linusw/linux-pinctrlgrafted
Pull pin control updates from Linus Walleij:
"Core changes:
- Use the non-blocking mux_state_try_select() in the generic MUX pin
control back-end
- Free pin maps on pinctrl_generic_to_map() failure in the core
helpers
New hardware pin control:
- Qualcomm Maili TLMM SoC, PMG1110 PMIC, and Eliza LPASS LPI TLMM SoC
(this is for the low power audio, LPASS = Low Power Audio SubSystem
portions)
- Upboard support on top of the Intel pin controller
- Apple T6030 and T6031 support (just compatible strings)
- Samsung Exynos 8855 SoC
- Mediatek MT6858 SoC
- Rockchip RK3308B and RV1106 SoCs
- Airoha EN7523 and AN7563 SoCs
Improvements:
- Qualcomm TLMM GPIOs are unconditionally marked as wakeup capable
- Qualcomm improvements on top of the Qualcomm PDC (power domain
controller) irqchip improvements from tglx:s tree
- Qualcomm IPQ806x and IPQ9650 non-urgent pin grop fixups
- The NPCM8xx driver has been put into shape fixing many pin and
group definitions
- Some non-urgent Tegra 264 pin assignments are fixed up
- Some non-urgent fixups to Airoha AN7581 and AN7583 registers and
pin assignments, missing features etc"

Normally, +you can set the size of hardware cursor. You can now play a few new +tricks: you can make your cursor look like a non-blinking red block, +make it inverse background of the character it's over or to highlight +that character and still choose whether the original hardware cursor +should remain visible or not. There may be other things I have never +thought of. + +The cursor appearance is controlled by a ``<ESC>[?1;2;3c`` escape sequence +where 1, 2 and 3 are parameters described below. If you omit any of them, +they will default to zeroes. + +first Parameter + specifies cursor size:: + + 0=default + 1=invisible + 2=underline, + ... + 8=full block + + 16 if you want the software cursor to be applied + + 32 if you want to always change the background color + + 64 if you dislike having the background the same as the + foreground. + + Highlights are ignored for the last two flags. + +second parameter + selects character attribute bits you want to change + (by simply XORing them with the value of this parameter). On standard + VGA, the high four bits specify background and the low four the + foreground. In both groups, low three bits set color (as in normal + color codes used by the console) and the most significant one turns + on highlight (or sometimes blinking -- it depends on the configuration + of your VGA). + +third parameter + consists of character attribute bits you want to set. + + Bit setting takes place before bit toggling, so you can simply clear a + bit by including it in both the set mask and the toggle mask. + +Examples +-------- + +To get normal blinking underline, use:: + + echo -e '\033[?2c' + +To get blinking block, use:: + + echo -e '\033[?6c' + +To get red non-blinking block, use:: + + echo -e '\033[?17;0;64c' |
