The wsfont module is a component of the wscons(9) framework to provide
access to display fonts. Fonts may be loaded dynamically into the kernel
or included statically in the kernel at compile time. Display drivers
which emulate a glass-tty console on a bit-mapped display can add, remove
and find fonts for use by device-dependent blitter operations.
The primary data type for manipulating fonts is the wsdisplay_font structure
in dev/wscons/wsconsio.h:
struct wsdisplay_font {
char *name; /* font name */
int firstchar;
int numchars; /* size of font table */
int encoding; /* font encoding
u_int fontwidth; /* character width */
u_int fontheight; /* character width */
u_int stride;
int bitorder;
int byteorder;
void *data; /* pointer to font table */
};
The maximum font table size is WSDISPLAY_MAXFONTSZ.
The wsfont framework supports fonts with the following encodings:
WSDISPLAY_FONTENC_ISO
ISO-encoded fonts.
WSDISPLAY_FONTENC_IBM
IBM-encoded fonts commonly available for IBM CGA, EGA and VGA
display adapters.
WSDISPLAY_FONTENC_PCVT
PCVT-encoding fonts distributed as part of the old PCVT terminal
emulation driver.
WSDISPLAY_FONTENC_ISO7
ISO-encoded Greek fonts.
WSDISPLAY_FONTENC_ISO2
ISO-encoded East European fonts.
wsfont_init(void)
Initialise the font list with the built-in fonts.
wsfont_matches(font, name, width, height, stride)
Matches the font font with the specifications name, width,
height and stride. Return zero if not matched and non-zero if
matched.
wsfont_find(name, width, height, stride, bitorder, byteorder)
Find the font called name from the fonts loaded into the kernel.
The font aspect is specified by width, height, and stride. If
wsfont_find() is called with any of the parameters as 0, it
indicates that we don't care about that aspect of the font. If
the font is found a (nonnegative-valued) cookie is returned
which can used with the other functions.
The bitorder and byteorder arguments are the bit order and byte
order required. Valid values are:
WSDISPLAY_FONTORDER_KNOWN
The font is in known ordered format and doesn't need
converting.
WSDISPLAY_FONTORDER_L2R
The font is ordered left to right.
WSDISPLAY_FONTORDER_R2L
The font is ordered right to left.
When more flexibility is required, wsfont_enum() should be used.
wsfont_add(font, copy)
Add a font font to the font list. If the copy argument is nonzero,
then the font is physically copied, otherwise a reference
to the original font is made.
wsfont_remove(cookie)
Remove the font specified by cookie from the font list. The
value of cookie was returned by wsfont_add().
wsfont_enum(callback)
Enumerate the list of fonts. For each font in the font list,
the callback function argument is called with the arguments
specifying the font name, width, height and stride.
wsfont_lock(cookie, ptr)
Lock access to the font specified by cookie so that it cannot be
unloaded from the kernel while is being used. If the bit or
byte order of the font to be locked differs from what has been
requested with wsfont_find() then the glyph data will be modified
to match. At this point it may be necessary for
wsfont_lock() to make a copy of the font data; this action is
transparent to the caller. A later call to wsfont_unlock() will
free resources used by temporary copies.
The address of the wsdisplay_font pointer for the specified font
is return in the ptr argument.
wsfont_lock() returns zero on success, or an error code on failure.
wsfont_unlock(cookie)
Unlock the font specified by cookie. Returns zero on succss, or
an error code on failure.
wsfont_map_unichar(font, c)
Remap the unicode character c to glyph for font font. Returns
the glyph or success or -1 on error.
This section describes places within the NetBSD source tree where actual
code implementing or utilising the machine-independent wsfont subsystem
can be found. All pathnames are relative to /usr/src.
The wscons subsystem is implemented within the directory sys/dev/wscons.
The wsfont subsystem itself is implemented within the file
sys/dev/wsfont/wsfont.c.
