Subject: [PATCH] vga: relax restriction on display width
Date: Fri,  4 Oct 2024 08:39:37 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20241004083937.73595-1-simon.rowe@nutanix.com> (raw)

When validating the parameters of VBE ioport writes the X co-ordinate
is silently rounded down to a multiple of 8. For valid resolutions
(such as 1366x768) which are not divisible by 8 this causes
miscalculations because the display surface has shorter lines than
expected. For example, a VNC client receives updates with a
"staircase" effect.

Reduce the rounding to a multiple of two.
