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.

They are listed amon those cmd values that "treat 'arg' as an integer"
which is wrong. They should instead fall into the default case. Probably

Attempt to display a fallback character when given character doesn't
have an available glyph. The substitution may not be as good as the
original character but still way more helpful than a squared question
mark.
Example substitutions: À -> A, ç -> c, ø -> o, ─ -> -, © -> C, etc.
See gen_ucs_fallback_table.py for a comprehensive list.

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.

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.

This requirement was overeagerly loosened in commit 2f83e38a095f
("tty: Permit some TIOCL_SETSEL modes without CAP_SYS_ADMIN"), but as
it turns out,
(1) the logic I implemented there was inconsistent (apologies!),
(2) TIOCL_SELMOUSEREPORT might actually be a small security risk
after all, and
(3) TIOCL_SELMOUSEREPORT is only meant to be used by the mouse
daemon (GPM or Consolation), which runs as CAP_SYS_ADMIN
already.
In more detail:
1. The previous patch has inconsistent logic:
In commit 2f83e38a095f ("tty: Permit some TIOCL_SETSEL modes
without CAP_SYS_ADMIN"), we checked for sel_mode ==
TIOCL_SELMOUSEREPORT, but overlooked that the lower four bits of
this "mode" parameter were actually used as an additional way to
pass an argument. So the patch did actually still require
CAP_SYS_ADMIN, if any of the mouse button bits are set, but did not
require it if none of the mouse buttons bits are set.
This logic is inconsistent and was not intentional. We should have
the same policies for using TIOCL_SELMOUSEREPORT independent of the
value of the "hidden" mouse button argument.
I sent a separate documentation patch to the man page list with
more details on TIOCL_SELMOUSEREPORT:
https://lore.kernel.org/all/20250223091342.35523-2-gnoack3000@gmail.com/
2. TIOCL_SELMOUSEREPORT is indeed a potential security risk which can
let an attacker simulate "keyboard" input to command line
applications on the same terminal, like TIOCSTI and some other
TIOCLINUX "selection mode" IOCTLs.
By enabling mouse reporting on a terminal and then injecting mouse
reports through TIOCL_SELMOUSEREPORT, an attacker can simulate
mouse movements on the same terminal, similar to the TIOCSTI
keystroke injection attacks that were previously possible with
TIOCSTI and other TIOCL_SETSEL selection modes.
Many programs (including libreadline/bash) are then prone to
misinterpret these mouse reports as normal keyboard input because
they do not expect input in the X11 mouse protocol form. The
attacker does not have complete control over the escape sequence,
but they can at least control the values of two consecutive bytes
in the binary mouse reporting escape sequence.
I went into more detail on that in the discussion at
https://lore.kernel.org/all/20250221.0a947528d8f3@gnoack.org/
It is not equally trivial to simulate arbitrary keystrokes as it
was with TIOCSTI (commit 83efeeeb3d04 ("tty: Allow TIOCSTI to be
disabled")), but the general mechanism is there, and together with
the small number of existing legit use cases (see below), it would
be better to revert back to requiring CAP_SYS_ADMIN for
TIOCL_SELMOUSEREPORT, as it was already the case before
commit 2f83e38a095f ("tty: Permit some TIOCL_SETSEL modes without
CAP_SYS_ADMIN").
3. TIOCL_SELMOUSEREPORT is only used by the mouse daemons (GPM or
Consolation), and they are the only legit use case:
To quote console_codes(4):
The mouse tracking facility is intended to return
xterm(1)-compatible mouse status reports. Because the console
driver has no way to know the device or type of the mouse, these
reports are returned in the console input stream only when the
virtual terminal driver receives a mouse update ioctl. These
ioctls must be generated by a mouse-aware user-mode application
such as the gpm(8) daemon.
Jared Finder has also confirmed in
https://lore.kernel.org/all/491f3df9de6593df8e70dbe77614b026@finder.org/
that Emacs does not call TIOCL_SELMOUSEREPORT directly, and it
would be difficult to find good reasons for doing that, given that
it would interfere with the reports that GPM is sending.
More information on the interaction between GPM, terminals and the
kernel with additional pointers is also available in this patch:
https://lore.kernel.org/all/a773e48920aa104a65073671effbdee665c105fc.1603963593.git.tammo.block@gmail.com/
For background on who else uses TIOCL_SELMOUSEREPORT: Debian Code
search finds one page of results, the only two known callers are
the two mouse daemons GPM and Consolation. (GPM does not show up
in the search results because it uses literal numbers to refer to
TIOCLINUX-related enums. I looked through GPM by hand instead.
TIOCL_SELMOUSEREPORT is also not used from libgpm.)

This is now taken care of by ucs_is_zero_width(). And in the case where
we do want a padding from some zero-width code point then we should also
give the legacy displays a space character to work with.

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 or selection.
Let's use a better code point for the column padding's purpose i.e. a
zero-white-space rather than a full space.

Split table ranges into BMP (16-bit) and non-BMP (above 16-bit).
This reduces the corresponding text size by 20-25%.
Note: scripts/checkpatch.pl complains about "... exceeds 100 columns".
Please ignore.

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.
With all the infrastructure in place this is now trivial to do.

This provides ucs_recompose() to recompose two Unicode characters into
a single character if possible. This is needed for the VT to properly
display decomposed UTF8 sequences.
Note: scripts/checkpatch.pl complains about "... exceeds 100 columns".
Please ignore.
