Also convert all sizes and positions of CONSOLE_DRAW to USHORT since
this is the standard type for all console buffer positions & sizes
(minimum value 0, maximum value 0xFFFF == 65535).
Addendum fixes to ca370b49 (r52239) and a965ca6b (r52409).
- Fix the comments to explain what is really happening.
- Fix the boundary calculations in VidDisplayString() so that we can
correctly display a character in the very last column before going
to the next line, and fix similarly the vertical boundary calculation.
- Port the fixes to the ARM code.
CORE-15901
This fixes display reset transition when an external module acquired
INBV ownership and then released it, similarly to what was done in
commit 0ad65796 for VIDEOPRT.
For this a backup screenbuffer is used to store the contents of the
screen just before an INBV screen acquire transition, and these contents
are restored when it is detected that INBV ownership has been released.
Also, the active text font associated with the active console code-page
is restored, as well as the cursor state and shape.
In addition, any user of BLUE.SYS is now required to explicitly issue
a new IOCTL_CONSOLE_RESET_SCREEN to either enable or disable the screen.
This allows avoiding nasty unwanted screen mode switches when a handle
to the \Device\BlueScreen device is opened but no screen mode switch was
actually wanted - This "fixes" this annoyance on ReactOS and Windows,
when these are running witha VGA-compatible video driver and one wants
to look at properties of the \Device\BlueScreen device using
Sysinternals' WinObj.
Following this, we don't need to check anymore for explicit INBV
ownership by issuing calls to InbvCheckDisplayOwnership(), but instead
we check whether the screen has beeen manually enabled using the
aforementioned IOCTL. This partly supersedes commit 8b553a4b, and allows
fixing the second bug, namely that if we start ReactOS without the
/NOGUIBOOT option (and thus, INBV is active during boot), USETUP would
not show up anything because BLUE.SYS wouldn't display anything on screen.
See CORE-15901.
[USETUP][CONSRV] Call IOCTL_CONSOLE_RESET_SCREEN to tell BlueScreen device to enable the screen.
This involves many changes/fixes in the floppy driver:
- Stop creating ourselves our DOS device, it's up to the MountMgr or to the kernel;
- Report each new floppy drive to the MountMgr (this is a hack for now);
- As a consequence, stop storing the symlink name into the DRIVE_INFO structure;
- Store the device name instead;
- On IOCTL_MOUNTDEV_QUERY_DEVICE_NAME, don't return DOS device, but device name;
- On IOCTL_MOUNTDEV_QUERY_DEVICE_NAME, properly return if buffer is way too small;
- Hackplement IOCTL_MOUNTDEV_QUERY_UNIQUE_ID so that it returns device name.
This fixes shutting down ReactOS under certain circumstances, where
the references were incremented, but no worker thread started.
Also, took the opportunity to clarify the WorkerReferences comparisons
where relevant.
CORE-16446
Because our disk.sys doesn't do anything related to PnP
(compared to disk_new.sys), forcibly declare our partitions
to the MountMgr so that it can references them and assign
them a DOS drive letter on demand later on.
This is required so that MountMgr can handle devices that are still
using class2 instead of classpnp.
Given we have no unique ID to return, we'll return device path, which
is far from perfect but which is enough for now to have everything
working.
This fixes memory smashing while attempting to volume
reparse index (we were previously trying to copy the
name on itself, in the middle of itself...).
This code won't go farther on FAT, it requires NTFS.
Now, with this, ReactOS can properly boot with MountMgr
handling DOS devices without any crash or code disabled.
Cf: what was written in 7608ac9.
Modifications in class2, disk, and ntoskrnl are still to
be committed to enable all this.
