From f146c7bc85a51f95c05e0f8173d484eb301ece78 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Danilo Krummrich Date: Thu, 13 Aug 2026 18:52:04 +0200 Subject: PCI: Add pci_irq_type() to query the allocated interrupt type Add a helper that returns PCI_IRQ_MSIX, PCI_IRQ_MSI, or PCI_IRQ_INTX based on the interrupt type the PCI core selected after pci_alloc_irq_vectors(). Several drivers already open-code this check against pdev->msix_enabled and pdev->msi_enabled, or even open code this helper [1]. A common helper avoids the duplication and keeps drivers from accessing the bitfield directly (see also [2]).

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 ``[?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' -- cgit v1.3.1
