Hi, How about add a index before get fontdata?
so, we will able to support non-ascii fonts.
like:
	drivers/video/fbconsole.c
	-->	static void drawchar(struct fbc_priv *priv, int x, int y, char c)
		{
			...
	-		inbuf = &priv->fontdata[c * priv->font_height];
	+		if(priv->index) {
	+			inbuf = look up index in the table.
	+		}
	+		else {
	+			inbuf = &priv->fontdata[c * priv->font_height];
	+		}
the index table like:
	struct font_index fontname_index = {
		{ 0xXXXX, 0xYYYY },	/* where, 0xXXXX is the unioncode of the char     */
		{ 0xXXXX, 0xYYYY },	/* the 0xYYYY is the index of the fontdata array. */
		{ 0xXXXX, 0xYYYY },	/* normally, we don't need a full char set.       */
		{ 0xXXXX, 0xYYYY },	/* just put the used chars in the table.          */
		{ 0xXXXX, 0xYYYY },	/* we also have a tool to generate fontdata array.*/
	};

If you want to support non-ascii fonts then why don't you simply add
one? Or is your concern that too much binary size is used when you only
need a small fraction of a font but you always have to provide 256
chars?
