+Further there was only one user ever.
+- Android's loadfont, busybox and console-tools only ever use OP_GET
+ and OP_SET
+- fbset documentation only mentions the kernel cmdline font: option,
+ not anything else.
+- systemd used OP_COPY before release 232 published in Nov 2016
+
+Now unfortunately the crucial report seems to have gone down with
+gmane, and the commit message doesn't say much. But the pull request
+hints at OP_COPY being broken
+
+https://github.com/systemd/systemd/pull/3651
+
+So in other words, this never worked, and the only project which
+foolishly every tried to use it, realized that rather quickly too.
+
+Instead of trying to fix security issues here on dead code by adding
+missing checks, fix the entire thing by removing the functionality.
+
+Note that systemd code using the OP_COPY function ignored the return
+value, so it doesn't matter what we're doing here really - just in
+case a lone server somewhere happens to be extremely unlucky and
+running an affected old version of systemd. The relevant code from
+font_copy_to_all_vcs() in systemd was:
+
+ /* copy font from active VT, where the font was uploaded to */
+ cfo.op = KD_FONT_OP_COPY;
+ cfo.height = vcs.v_active-1; /* tty1 == index 0 */
+ (void) ioctl(vcfd, KDFONTOP, &cfo);
+
+Note this just disables the ioctl, garbage collecting the now unused
+callbacks is left for -next.
+
+v2: Tetsuo found the old mail, which allowed me to find it on another
+archive. Add the link too.
