This rules file tells udev to create symlinks for input devices (keyboard and mouse, at this moment) separated by seat, so it could be easier for one to get quickly the devpath of a given input device attached to a given seat.
Example: the keyboard attached to seat-foo will receive a symlink with path /dev/input/by-seat/seat-foo.kbd-event It can be very handful specially for Xephyr-based multiseat setups, where input devpaths must be passed via command line options like -keybd and -mouse. --- Makefile.am | 3 ++- src/login/74-seat-input.rules | 9 +++++++++ 2 files changed, 11 insertions(+), 1 deletion(-) create mode 100644 src/login/74-seat-input.rules diff --git a/Makefile.am b/Makefile.am index 79c49e6..b78df52 100644 --- a/Makefile.am +++ b/Makefile.am @@ -4262,7 +4262,8 @@ endif dist_udevrules_DATA += \ src/login/70-uaccess.rules \ - src/login/70-power-switch.rules + src/login/70-power-switch.rules \ + src/login/74-seat-input.rules nodist_udevrules_DATA += \ src/login/71-seat.rules \ diff --git a/src/login/74-seat-input.rules b/src/login/74-seat-input.rules new file mode 100644 index 0000000..059a8de --- /dev/null +++ b/src/login/74-seat-input.rules @@ -0,0 +1,9 @@ +# Rules for seat0 +SUBSYSTEM=="input", ENV{ID_SEAT}=="", ENV{ID_INPUT_KEYBOARD}=="1", SYMLINK+="input/by-seat/seat0.kbd-event" +SUBSYSTEM=="input", ENV{ID_SEAT}=="", ENV{ID_INPUT_MOUSE}=="1", KERNEL=="event*", SYMLINK+="input/by-seat/seat0.mouse-event" +SUBSYSTEM=="input", ENV{ID_SEAT}=="", ENV{ID_INPUT_MOUSE}=="1", KERNEL=="mouse*", SYMLINK+="input/by-seat/seat0.mouse" + +# Rules for other seats +SUBSYSTEM=="input", ENV{ID_SEAT}!="", ENV{ID_INPUT_KEYBOARD}=="1", SYMLINK+="input/by-seat/$env{ID_SEAT}.kbd-event" +SUBSYSTEM=="input", ENV{ID_SEAT}!="", ENV{ID_INPUT_MOUSE}=="1", KERNEL=="event*", SYMLINK+="input/by-seat/$env{ID_SEAT}.mouse-event" +SUBSYSTEM=="input", ENV{ID_SEAT}!="", ENV{ID_INPUT_MOUSE}=="1", KERNEL=="mouse*", SYMLINK+="input/by-seat/$env{ID_SEAT}.mouse" -- 1.8.4.5 _______________________________________________ systemd-devel mailing list systemd-devel@lists.freedesktop.org http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/systemd-devel
