Subject: [PATCH 6/9] console: add get_size callback for direct size reporting
Date: Fri, 1 May 2026 08:54:00 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260501070625.952091-7-a.fatoum@barebox.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260501070625.952091-1-a.fatoum@barebox.org>
Add an optional get_size callback to struct console_device that allows
consoles to report their dimensions directly without requiring escape
sequence queries.
Update term_getsize() to try get_size first for consoles that implement
it. These consoles only need CONSOLE_STDOUT to participate in size
detection. Consoles without get_size still require both CONSOLE_STDIN
and CONSOLE_STDOUT for the escape sequence query path.
This enables output-only consoles like fbconsole to report their size
to commands like edit and watch.
