From: Roderick Colenbrander <roderick.colenbran...@sony.com>
David Herrmann's original patch was ported over to a modern Linux kernel.
In the process, we went over all the feedback to the original patch series
and added various improvements:
- evdev_handle_get_abs2 returns valid_cnt instead of 0 when succesfull
- Updated documentation of EVIOCGABS2/EVIOCSABS2 ioctls based.
- Clarified language around ABS_MAX2 definition, to state the *ABS2 ioctls
should be used for the full range.
[PATCH 2/4] Input: introduce ABS_MAX2/CNT2 and friends
David Herrmann <dh.herrm...@gmail.com>
Tue Dec 17 07:48:52 PST 2013
Previous message: [PATCH 1/4] Input: uinput: add full absinfo support
Next message: [PATCH 2/4] Input: introduce ABS_MAX2/CNT2 and friends
Messages sorted by: [ date ] [ thread ] [ subject ] [ author ]
As we painfully noticed during the 3.12 merge-window our
EVIOCGABS/EVIOCSABS API is limited to ABS_MAX<=0x3f. We tried several
hacks to work around it but if we ever decide to increase ABS_MAX, the
EVIOCSABS ioctl ABI might overflow into the next byte causing horrible
misinterpretations in the kernel that we cannot catch.
Therefore, we decided to go with ABS_MAX2/CNT2 and introduce two new
ioctls to get/set abs-params. They no longer encode the ABS code in the
ioctl number and thus allow up to 4 billion ABS codes.
The new API also allows to query multiple ABS values with one call. To
allow EVIOCSABS2(code = 0, cnt = ABS_CNT2) we need to silently ignore
writes to ABS_MT_SLOT. Furthermore, for better compatibility with
newer user-space, we ignore writes to unknown codes. Hence, if we ever
increase ABS_MAX2, new user-space will work with code=0,cnt=ABS_CNT2 just
fine even on old kernels.
Note that we also need to increase EV_VERSION so user-space can reliably
know whether ABS2 is supported. Unfortunately, we return EINVAL instead of
ENOSYS for unknown evdev ioctls so it's nearly impossible to catch
reliably without EVIOCGVERSION.
