Bug ID: 85573
Summary: Provide a udev handle from the libinput device
Product: Wayland
Version: unspecified
Hardware: Other
OS: All
Status: NEW
Severity: enhancement
Priority: medium
Component: libinput
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
CC: [email protected]
>From a private email from Bastien:
"[we need] a way to get back to the original udev device from the libinput
device, then that'd be fine. (this is actually required functionality for a
feature in gnome-settings-daemon, where pressing the volume up/down on a USB
speaker would change the volume of that speaker, not of the system
sound)."
The API currently provides libinput_device_get_sysname() which allows for a
caller to get the corresponding input device, provided they guess the subsystem
right (udev_device_new_from_subsystem_sysname). Long-term it's probably better
to get the udev device directly from libinput.
