Bug ID: 85627
Summary: Add support for ForcePads
Product: Wayland
Version: unspecified
Hardware: Other
OS: All
Status: NEW
Severity: enhancement
Priority: low
Component: libinput
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]

ForcePad is the most recent touchpad from Synaptics Inc. It's a multi-touch
capable touchpad without any physical buttons, i.e. without even the clickpad
button.
Synaptics: http://www.synaptics.com/en/forcepad.php
Kernel patches: https://lkml.org/lkml/2014/9/8/478
The device still sends BTN_LEFT when a pressure threshold is met and
INPUT_PROP_BUTTONPAD is set. It should thus work fine as clickpad.
If the device is marked by the kernel as ForcePad, we can ignore the clicks and
provide click emulation from within libinput. That would provide more flexible
implementations, including direct software button emulations based on the
finger positions.
Device is present on the HP EliteBook 1040 laptops, note that those laptops do
not have software button markings.
