7Currently the ALPS touchpad driver supports four protocol versions in use by 7ALPS touchpads, called versions 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5.
8ALPS touchpads, called versions 1, 2, 3, and 4. Information about the various 8
9protocol versions is contained in the following sections. 9Since roughly mid-2010 several new ALPS touchpads have been released and
10integrated into a variety of laptops and netbooks. These new touchpads
11have enough behavior differences that the alps_model_data definition
12table, describing the properties of the different versions, is no longer
13adequate. The design choices were to re-define the alps_model_data
14table, with the risk of regression testing existing devices, or isolate
15the new devices outside of the alps_model_data table. The latter design
16choice was made. The new touchpad signatures are named: "Rushmore",
17"Pinnacle", and "Dolphin", which you will see in the alps.c code.
18For the purposes of this document, this group of ALPS touchpads will
19generically be called "new ALPS touchpads".
20
21We experimented with probing the ACPI interface _HID (Hardware ID)/_CID
22(Compatibility ID) definition as a way to uniquely identify the
23different ALPS variants but there did not appear to be a 1:1 mapping.
24In fact, it appeared to be an m:n mapping between the _HID and actual
25hardware type.

109
110 From version 3.8, Linux supports multiqueue tuntap which can uses multiple
111 file descriptors (queues) to parallelize packets sending or receiving. The
112 device allocation is the same as before, and if user wants to create multiple
113 queues, TUNSETIFF with the same device name must be called many times with
114 IFF_MULTI_QUEUE flag.
115
116 char *dev should be the name of the device, queues is the number of queues to
117 be created, fds is used to store and return the file descriptors (queues)
118 created to the caller. Each file descriptor were served as the interface of a
119 queue which could be accessed by userspace.

161 calling it with IFF_DETACH_QUEUE flag, the queue were disabled. And when
162 calling it with IFF_ATTACH_QUEUE flag, the queue were enabled. The queue were
163 enabled by default after it was created through TUNSETIFF.
