* | Input: add switch for dock eventsMatthew Garrett2008-07-19
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Add a SW_DOCK switch to input.h. ACPI docks currently send their docking status as a uevent, but not all docks are ACPI or correspond to a device. In that case, it makes more sense to simply generate an input event on docking or undocking.

| * Input: rename SW_RADIO to SW_RFKILL_ALLHenrique de Moraes Holschuh2008-05-30
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The SW_RADIO code for EV_SW events has a name that is not descriptive enough of its intended function, and could induce someone to think KEY_RADIO is its EV_KEY counterpart, which is false. Rename it to SW_RFKILL_ALL, and document what this event is for. Keep the old name around, to avoid userspace ABI breaks. The SW_RFKILL_ALL event is meant to be used by rfkill master switches. It is not bound to a particular radio switch type, and usually applies to all types. It is semantically tied to master rfkill switches that enable or disable every radio in a system.

* Input: make sure input interfaces pin parent input devicesDmitry Torokhov2008-04-01
| | | | | | | | | | Recent driver core change causes references to parent devices being dropped early, at device_del() time, as opposed to when all children are freed. This causes oops in evdev with grabbed devices. Take the reference to the parent input device ourselves to ensure that it stays around long enough. Signed-off-by: Dmitry Torokhov <dtor@mail.ru>

* Input: add a new EV_SW SW_RADIO event, for radio switches on laptopsHenrique de Moraes Holschuh2007-06-29
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Many laptops have rf-kill physical switches that are not keys, but slider or rocker switches. Often (like in all ThinkPads with a radio kill slider switch), they have both a slider/rocker switch and a hot key. Trying to kludge a real switch to act like a key is not a very smart thing to do if you can help it, and it gets specially bad when you are going to have both in the same machine. So, we do the right thing and add an input EV_SW event for radio kill switches. The EV_SW SW_RADIO event is defined with positive logic, i.e. when the switch is active, the radios are to be enabled. When the switch is inactive, the radios are to be disabled. Signed-off-by: Henrique de Moraes Holschuh <hmh@hmh.eng.br> Signed-off-by: Dmitry Torokhov <dtor@mail.ru>

Lets import its database so that everyone can benefit of the work of Olaf Tauber. Only the "tm_new" laptops were imported. "tm_old" laptops could be possible but requires more testing and probably only few laptops are still alive. "dritek" laptops should probably be imported into a different driver. Also compress the keymaps by fitting each entry on an int. Most of the dmi matching was written based on google searches, so it's rather prone to errors. That's why I'm asking people to confirm it works. Support to generate switch input events was added as some laptops indicate lid open/close through this interface.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | On USB keyboards lots of hot/internet keys are not working. This patch adds support for a number of keys from the USB HID Usage Table (http://www.usb.org/developers/devclass_docs/Hut1_12.pdf). It also adds several new key codes. Most of them are used on real world keyboards I know. I added some others (KEY_+ EDITOR, GRAPHICSEDITOR, DATABASE, NEWS, VOICEMAIL, VIDEOPHONE) to avoid "holes". I also added KEY_ZOOMRESET as it is possible to have a inet keyboard and a remote control in parallel and it makes sense to have them behave differently.

* IRQ: Maintain regs pointer globally rather than passing to IRQ handlersDavid Howells2006-10-05
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Maintain a per-CPU global "struct pt_regs *" variable which can be used instead of passing regs around manually through all ~1800 interrupt handlers in the Linux kernel. The regs pointer is used in few places, but it potentially costs both stack space and code to pass it around. On the FRV arch, removing the regs parameter from all the genirq function results in a 20% speed up of the IRQ exit path (ie: from leaving timer_interrupt() to leaving do_IRQ()). Where appropriate, an arch may override the generic storage facility and do something different with the variable. On FRV, for instance, the address is maintained in GR28 at all times inside the kernel as part of general exception handling. Having looked over the code, it appears that the parameter may be handed down through up to twenty or so layers of functions. Consider a USB character device attached to a USB hub, attached to a USB controller that posts its interrupts through a cascaded auxiliary interrupt controller. A character device driver may want to pass regs to the sysrq handler through the input layer which adds another few layers of parameter passing. I've build this code with allyesconfig for x86_64 and i386. I've runtested the main part of the code on FRV and i386, though I can't test most of the drivers. I've also done partial conversion for powerpc and MIPS - these at least compile with minimal configurations. This will affect all archs. Mostly the changes should be relatively easy. Take do_IRQ(), store the regs pointer at the beginning, saving the old one: struct pt_regs *old_regs = set_irq_regs(regs); And put the old one back at the end: set_irq_regs(old_regs); Don't pass regs through to generic_handle_irq() or __do_IRQ(). In timer_interrupt(), this sort of change will be necessary: - update_process_times(user_mode(regs)); - profile_tick(CPU_PROFILING, regs); + update_process_times(user_mode(get_irq_regs())); + profile_tick(CPU_PROFILING); I'd like to move update_process_times()'s use of get_irq_regs() into itself, except that i386, alone of the archs, uses something other than user_mode(). Some notes on the interrupt handling in the drivers: (*) input_dev() is now gone entirely. The regs pointer is no longer stored in the input_dev struct. (*) finish_unlinks() in drivers/usb/host/ohci-q.c needs checking. It does something different depending on whether it's been supplied with a regs pointer or not. (*) Various IRQ handler function pointers have been moved to type irq_handler_t.

* Input: add new BUS_VIRTUAL bus typeMichael Hanselmann2006-09-19
| | | | | | | | | | BUS_VIRTUAL can be used when creating virtual devices using uinput driver. Note that when uinput is used to drive a real piece of hardware "real" bus type (such as BUS_USB, BUS_BLUETOOTH) should be specified.
