Subject: [PATCH v2 04/13] vt: Calculate font-buffer size with vc_font_size()
Date: Mon, 2 Mar 2026 15:08:38 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260302141255.518657-5-tzimmermann@suse.de> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260302141255.518657-1-tzimmermann@suse.de>
In fbcon, fbcon_resize() computes the size of the font buffer from the
values stored in vc_font. Move these calculations to the dedicated helpers
vc_font_pitch() and vc_font_size().
