Pull tracing fixes from Steven Rostedt:
- Fix error output of boot instance creation failure
Currently if a boot instance creation fails, instead of printing out
the name of the instance that failed, it prints "(null)". That is
because it prints "cur_str" that had already been processed by
strsep(). Print the saved name instead.
While at it, print the error code of the failure.
- Fix use-after-free for same named historgrams
Histograms can be named so that they can be used in multiple events.
But if the named histogram has a variable attached, the second event
that uses the named histogram which duplicates it and needs to free
the original after duplication leaves the old variable in place and
still visible. If another histogram uses than variable, it will use
the stale one which will try to reference the freed duplicate
histogram and crash the kernel.
Free the duplicate variables along with the duplicated histogram
data.
- Check return value of kthread_run() in event self test
The events self tests uses a kthread for testing but does not check
if it succeeded in creating a kthread. If the kthread creation were
to fail, the code will still try to call kthread_stop() on the error
returned.
- Fix race between reading trace_pipe and updating subbuffer size
If a user is reading the trace_pipe file at the same time they update
the ring buffer sub-buffer size, can cause the trace_pipe read to
read stale data. Add trace_access_lock() around updating the ring
buffer sub-buffer size.
- Fix eventfs_inode on failure path in creation of the events directory
In the creation of the "events" directory, if after allocating the
eventfs_inode a failure is detected, it calls cleanup_ei() which
calls free_ei(). The free_ei() will test if eventfs_inode being freed
has no children. It is a bug if it does. But on the failure case of
the creation of the "events" directory, the children lists have not
yet been initialized and the free will trigger a warning because
list_empty() on an uninitialized list returns false.
Move the initialization into init_ei() where it makes more sense and
makes sure that a created eventfs_inode has its lists initialized
upon creation.
- Check return value of kthread_run() in ftrace direct sample code
The sample code that shows how to use the ftrace direct calls does
not test the return of kthread_run() to see if it succeeds. Return a
failure if the kthread_run() doesn't succeed.
- Clear user events state on fork in case of alloc failure
On fork, the child gets a pointer to the parent's user events state.
It makes a copy of it then updates the child's pointer to it. But if
the allocation fails, the duplication function leaves the child with
a pointer to its parent's descriptor. When the child cleans up its
data, it will free the parent's descriptor while the parent is still
using it.
In the duplication function, set the child's user_event_mm to NULL
before testing if the allocation succeeded, and when it exits it will
not free the parent's descriptor.
- Fix retry exhaustion in simple ring buffer reader swap
simple_ring_buffer_swap_reader_page() starts with retry set to 8 and
post-decrements it only after a failed link replacement. On the final
attempt, a successful replacement leaves retry at zero, while a
failed replacement leaves it at -1.
But the check for success expects the retry value to be non-zero and
exits with an error on zero. This is the opposite result. Fix it.
- Fail nicely when the remote swap_reader_page() returns an error
Currently, if the swap_reader_page() of a remote buffer fails, it
triggers a WARN_ON_ONCE() and continues normally. Instead, have it
exit with an error and a pr_warn() print instead of a full WARNING.

These new touchpads +have enough behavior differences that the alps_model_data definition +table, describing the properties of the different versions, is no longer +adequate. The design choices were to re-define the alps_model_data +table, with the risk of regression testing existing devices, or isolate +the new devices outside of the alps_model_data table. The latter design +choice was made. The new touchpad signatures are named: "Rushmore", +"Pinnacle", and "Dolphin", which you will see in the alps.c code. +For the purposes of this document, this group of ALPS touchpads will +generically be called "new ALPS touchpads". + +We experimented with probing the ACPI interface _HID (Hardware ID)/_CID +(Compatibility ID) definition as a way to uniquely identify the +different ALPS variants but there did not appear to be a 1:1 mapping. +In fact, it appeared to be an m:n mapping between the _HID and actual +hardware type. + +Detection +--------- + +All ALPS touchpads should respond to the "E6 report" command sequence: +E8-E6-E6-E6-E9. An ALPS touchpad should respond with either 00-00-0A or +00-00-64 if no buttons are pressed. The bits 0-2 of the first byte will be 1s +if some buttons are pressed. + +If the E6 report is successful, the touchpad model is identified using the "E7 +report" sequence: E8-E7-E7-E7-E9. The response is the model signature and is +matched against known models in the alps_model_data_array. + +For older touchpads supporting protocol versions 3 and 4, the E7 report +model signature is always 73-02-64. To differentiate between these +versions, the response from the "Enter Command Mode" sequence must be +inspected as described below. + +The new ALPS touchpads have an E7 signature of 73-03-50 or 73-03-0A but +seem to be better differentiated by the EC Command Mode response. + +Command Mode +------------ + +Protocol versions 3 and 4 have a command mode that is used to read and write +one-byte device registers in a 16-bit address space. The command sequence +EC-EC-EC-E9 places the device in command mode, and the device will respond +with 88-07 followed by a third byte. This third byte can be used to determine +whether the devices uses the version 3 or 4 protocol. + +To exit command mode, PSMOUSE_CMD_SETSTREAM (EA) is sent to the touchpad. + +While in command mode, register addresses can be set by first sending a +specific command, either EC for v3 devices or F5 for v4 devices. Then the +address is sent one nibble at a time, where each nibble is encoded as a +command with optional data. This encoding differs slightly between the v3 and +v4 protocols. + +Once an address has been set, the addressed register can be read by sending +PSMOUSE_CMD_GETINFO (E9). The first two bytes of the response contains the +address of the register being read, and the third contains the value of the +register. Registers are written by writing the value one nibble at a time +using the same encoding used for addresses. + +For the new ALPS touchpads, the EC command is used to enter command +mode. The response in the new ALPS touchpads is significantly different, +and more important in determining the behavior. This code has been +separated from the original alps_model_data table and put in the +alps_identify function. For example, there seem to be two hardware init +sequences for the "Dolphin" touchpads as determined by the second byte +of the EC response. + +Packet Format +------------- + +In the following tables, the following notation is used:: + + CAPITALS = stick, miniscules = touchpad + +?'s can have different meanings on different models, such as wheel rotation, +extra buttons, stick buttons on a dualpoint, etc. + +PS/2 packet format +------------------ + +:: + + byte 0: 0 0 YSGN XSGN 1 M R L + byte 1: X7 X6 X5 X4 X3 X2 X1 X0 + byte 2: Y7 Y6 Y5 Y4 Y3 Y2 Y1 Y0 + +Note that the device never signals overflow condition. + +For protocol version 2 devices when the trackpoint is used, and no fingers +are on the touchpad, the M R L bits signal the combined status of both the +pointingstick and touchpad buttons. + +ALPS Absolute Mode - Protocol Version 1 +--------------------------------------- + +:: + + byte 0: 1 0 0 0 1 x9 x8 x7 + byte 1: 0 x6 x5 x4 x3 x2 x1 x0 + byte 2: 0 ? ? l r ? fin ges + byte 3: 0 ? ? ? ? y9 y8 y7 + byte 4: 0 y6 y5 y4 y3 y2 y1 y0 + byte 5: 0 z6 z5 z4 z3 z2 z1 z0 + +ALPS Absolute Mode - Protocol Version 2 +--------------------------------------- + +:: + + byte 0: 1 ? ? ? 1 PSM PSR PSL + byte 1: 0 x6 x5 x4 x3 x2 x1 x0 + byte 2: 0 x10 x9 x8 x7 ? fin ges + byte 3: 0 y9 y8 y7 1 M R L + byte 4: 0 y6 y5 y4 y3 y2 y1 y0 + byte 5: 0 z6 z5 z4 z3 z2 z1 z0 + +Protocol Version 2 DualPoint devices send standard PS/2 mouse packets for +the DualPoint Stick. The M, R and L bits signal the combined status of both +the pointingstick and touchpad buttons, except for Dell dualpoint devices +where the pointingstick buttons get reported separately in the PSM, PSR +and PSL bits. + +Dualpoint device -- interleaved packet format +--------------------------------------------- + +:: + + byte 0: 1 1 0 0 1 1 1 1 + byte 1: 0 x6 x5 x4 x3 x2 x1 x0 + byte 2: 0 x10 x9 x8 x7 0 fin ges + byte 3: 0 0 YSGN XSGN 1 1 1 1 + byte 4: X7 X6 X5 X4 X3 X2 X1 X0 + byte 5: Y7 Y6 Y5 Y4 Y3 Y2 Y1 Y0 + byte 6: 0 y9 y8 y7 1 m r l + byte 7: 0 y6 y5 y4 y3 y2 y1 y0 + byte 8: 0 z6 z5 z4 z3 z2 z1 z0 + +Devices which use the interleaving format normally send standard PS/2 mouse +packets for the DualPoint Stick + ALPS Absolute Mode packets for the +touchpad, switching to the interleaved packet format when both the stick and +the touchpad are used at the same time. + +ALPS Absolute Mode - Protocol Version 3 +--------------------------------------- + +ALPS protocol version 3 has three different packet formats. The first two are +associated with touchpad events, and the third is associated with trackstick +events. + +The first type is the touchpad position packet:: + + byte 0: 1 ? x1 x0 1 1 1 1 + byte 1: 0 x10 x9 x8 x7 x6 x5 x4 + byte 2: 0 y10 y9 y8 y7 y6 y5 y4 + byte 3: 0 M R L 1 m r l + byte 4: 0 mt x3 x2 y3 y2 y1 y0 + byte 5: 0 z6 z5 z4 z3 z2 z1 z0 + +Note that for some devices the trackstick buttons are reported in this packet, +and on others it is reported in the trackstick packets. + +The second packet type contains bitmaps representing the x and y axes. In the +bitmaps a given bit is set if there is a finger covering that position on the +given axis. Thus the bitmap packet can be used for low-resolution multi-touch +data, although finger tracking is not possible. This packet also encodes the +number of contacts (f1 and f0 in the table below):: + + byte 0: 1 1 x1 x0 1 1 1 1 + byte 1: 0 x8 x7 x6 x5 x4 x3 x2 + byte 2: 0 y7 y6 y5 y4 y3 y2 y1 + byte 3: 0 y10 y9 y8 1 1 1 1 + byte 4: 0 x14 x13 x12 x11 x10 x9 y0 + byte 5: 0 1 ? ? ? ? f1 f0 + +This packet only appears after a position packet with the mt bit set, and +usually only appears when there are two or more contacts (although +occasionally it's seen with only a single contact). + +The final v3 packet type is the trackstick packet:: + + byte 0: 1 1 x7 y7 1 1 1 1 + byte 1: 0 x6 x5 x4 x3 x2 x1 x0 + byte 2: 0 y6 y5 y4 y3 y2 y1 y0 + byte 3: 0 1 TP SW 1 M R L + byte 4: 0 z6 z5 z4 z3 z2 z1 z0 + byte 5: 0 0 1 1 1 1 1 1 + +TP means Tap SW status when tap processing is enabled or Press status when press +processing is enabled. SW means scroll up when 4 buttons are available. + +ALPS Absolute Mode - Protocol Version 4 +--------------------------------------- + +Protocol version 4 has an 8-byte packet format:: + + byte 0: 1 ? x1 x0 1 1 1 1 + byte 1: 0 x10 x9 x8 x7 x6 x5 x4 + byte 2: 0 y10 y9 y8 y7 y6 y5 y4 + byte 3: 0 1 x3 x2 y3 y2 y1 y0 + byte 4: 0 ? ? ? 1 ? r l + byte 5: 0 z6 z5 z4 z3 z2 z1 z0 + byte 6: bitmap data (described below) + byte 7: bitmap data (described below) + +The last two bytes represent a partial bitmap packet, with 3 full packets +required to construct a complete bitmap packet. Once assembled, the 6-byte +bitmap packet has the following format:: + + byte 0: 0 1 x7 x6 x5 x4 x3 x2 + byte 1: 0 x1 x0 y4 y3 y2 y1 y0 + byte 2: 0 0 ? x14 x13 x12 x11 x10 + byte 3: 0 x9 x8 y9 y8 y7 y6 y5 + byte 4: 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 + byte 5: 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 y10 + +There are several things worth noting here. + + 1) In the bitmap data, bit 6 of byte 0 serves as a sync byte to + identify the first fragment of a bitmap packet. + + 2) The bitmaps represent the same data as in the v3 bitmap packets, although + the packet layout is different. + + 3) There doesn't seem to be a count of the contact points anywhere in the v4 + protocol packets. Deriving a count of contact points must be done by + analyzing the bitmaps. + + 4) There is a 3 to 1 ratio of position packets to bitmap packets. Therefore + MT position can only be updated for every third ST position update, and + the count of contact points can only be updated every third packet as + well. + +So far no v4 devices with tracksticks have been encountered. + +ALPS Absolute Mode - Protocol Version 5 +--------------------------------------- +This is basically Protocol Version 3 but with different logic for packet +decode. It uses the same alps_process_touchpad_packet_v3 call with a +specialized decode_fields function pointer to correctly interpret the +packets. This appears to only be used by the Dolphin devices. + +For single-touch, the 6-byte packet format is:: + + byte 0: 1 1 0 0 1 0 0 0 + byte 1: 0 x6 x5 x4 x3 x2 x1 x0 + byte 2: 0 y6 y5 y4 y3 y2 y1 y0 + byte 3: 0 M R L 1 m r l + byte 4: y10 y9 y8 y7 x10 x9 x8 x7 + byte 5: 0 z6 z5 z4 z3 z2 z1 z0 + +For mt, the format is:: + + byte 0: 1 1 1 n3 1 n2 n1 x24 + byte 1: 1 y7 y6 y5 y4 y3 y2 y1 + byte 2: ? x2 x1 y12 y11 y10 y9 y8 + byte 3: 0 x23 x22 x21 x20 x19 x18 x17 + byte 4: 0 x9 x8 x7 x6 x5 x4 x3 + byte 5: 0 x16 x15 x14 x13 x12 x11 x10 + +ALPS Absolute Mode - Protocol Version 6 +--------------------------------------- + +For trackstick packet, the format is:: + + byte 0: 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 + byte 1: 0 X6 X5 X4 X3 X2 X1 X0 + byte 2: 0 Y6 Y5 Y4 Y3 Y2 Y1 Y0 + byte 3: ?

Intelligent Keyboard (ikbd) is a general purpose keyboard +controller that is flexible enough that it can be used in a variety of +products without modification. The keyboard, with its microcontroller, +provides a convenient connection point for a mouse and switch-type joysticks. +The ikbd processor also maintains a time-of-day clock with one second +resolution. +The ikbd has been designed to be general enough that it can be used with a +variety of new computer products. Product variations in a number of +keyswitches, mouse resolution, etc. can be accommodated. +The ikbd communicates with the main processor over a high speed bi-directional +serial interface. It can function in a variety of modes to facilitate +different applications of the keyboard, joysticks, or mouse. Limited use of +the controller is possible in applications in which only a unidirectional +communications medium is available by carefully designing the default modes. + +Keyboard +======== + +The keyboard always returns key make/break scan codes. The ikbd generates +keyboard scan codes for each key press and release. The key scan make (key +closure) codes start at 1, and are defined in Appendix A. For example, the +ISO key position in the scan code table should exist even if no keyswitch +exists in that position on a particular keyboard. The break code for each key +is obtained by ORing 0x80 with the make code. + +The special codes 0xF6 through 0xFF are reserved for use as follows: + +=================== ==================================================== + Code Command +=================== ==================================================== + 0xF6 status report + 0xF7 absolute mouse position record + 0xF8-0xFB relative mouse position records (lsbs determined by + mouse button states) + 0xFC time-of-day + 0xFD joystick report (both sticks) + 0xFE joystick 0 event + 0xFF joystick 1 event +=================== ==================================================== + +The two shift keys return different scan codes in this mode. The ENTER key +and the RETurn key are also distinct. + +Mouse +===== + +The mouse port should be capable of supporting a mouse with resolution of +approximately 200 counts (phase changes or 'clicks') per inch of travel. The +mouse should be scanned at a rate that will permit accurate tracking at +velocities up to 10 inches per second. +The ikbd can report mouse motion in three distinctly different ways. It can +report relative motion, absolute motion in a coordinate system maintained +within the ikbd, or by converting mouse motion into keyboard cursor control +key equivalents. +The mouse buttons can be treated as part of the mouse or as additional +keyboard keys. + +Relative Position Reporting +--------------------------- + +In relative position mode, the ikbd will return relative mouse position +records whenever a mouse event occurs. A mouse event consists of a mouse +button being pressed or released, or motion in either axis exceeding a +settable threshold of motion. Regardless of the threshold, all bits of +resolution are returned to the host computer. +Note that the ikbd may return mouse relative position reports with +significantly more than the threshold delta x or y. This may happen since no +relative mouse motion events will be generated: (a) while the keyboard has +been 'paused' ( the event will be stored until keyboard communications is +resumed) (b) while any event is being transmitted. + +The relative mouse position record is a three byte record of the form +(regardless of keyboard mode):: + + %111110xy ; mouse position record flag + ; where y is the right button state + ; and x is the left button state + X ; delta x as twos complement integer + Y ; delta y as twos complement integer + +Note that the value of the button state bits should be valid even if the +MOUSE BUTTON ACTION has set the buttons to act like part of the keyboard. +If the accumulated motion before the report packet is generated exceeds the ++127...-128 range, the motion is broken into multiple packets. +Note that the sign of the delta y reported is a function of the Y origin +selected. + +Absolute Position reporting +--------------------------- + +The ikbd can also maintain absolute mouse position. Commands exist for +resetting the mouse position, setting X/Y scaling, and interrogating the +current mouse position. + +Mouse Cursor Key Mode +--------------------- + +The ikbd can translate mouse motion into the equivalent cursor keystrokes. +The number of mouse clicks per keystroke is independently programmable in +each axis. The ikbd internally maintains mouse motion information to the +highest resolution available, and merely generates a pair of cursor key events +for each multiple of the scale factor. +Mouse motion produces the cursor key make code immediately followed by the +break code for the appropriate cursor key. The mouse buttons produce scan +codes above those normally assigned for the largest envisioned keyboard (i.e. +LEFT=0x74 & RIGHT=0x75). + +Joystick +======== + +Joystick Event Reporting +------------------------ + +In this mode, the ikbd generates a record whenever the joystick position is +changed (i.e. for each opening or closing of a joystick switch or trigger). + +The joystick event record is two bytes of the form:: + + %1111111x ; Joystick event marker + ; where x is Joystick 0 or 1 + %x000yyyy ; where yyyy is the stick position + ; and x is the trigger + +Joystick Interrogation +---------------------- + +The current state of the joystick ports may be interrogated at any time in +this mode by sending an 'Interrogate Joystick' command to the ikbd. + +The ikbd response to joystick interrogation is a three byte report of the form:: + + 0xFD ; joystick report header + %x000yyyy ; Joystick 0 + %x000yyyy ; Joystick 1 + ; where x is the trigger + ; and yyy is the stick position + +Joystick Monitoring +------------------- + +A mode is available that devotes nearly all of the keyboard communications +time to reporting the state of the joystick ports at a user specifiable rate. +It remains in this mode until reset or commanded into another mode. The PAUSE +command in this mode not only stop the output but also temporarily stops +scanning the joysticks (samples are not queued). + +Fire Button Monitoring +---------------------- + +A mode is provided to permit monitoring a single input bit at a high rate. In +this mode the ikbd monitors the state of the Joystick 1 fire button at the +maximum rate permitted by the serial communication channel. The data is packed +8 bits per byte for transmission to the host. The ikbd remains in this mode +until reset or commanded into another mode. The PAUSE command in this mode not +only stops the output but also temporarily stops scanning the button (samples +are not queued). + +Joystick Key Code Mode +---------------------- + +The ikbd may be commanded to translate the use of either joystick into the +equivalent cursor control keystroke(s). The ikbd provides a single breakpoint +velocity joystick cursor. +Joystick events produce the make code, immediately followed by the break code +for the appropriate cursor motion keys. The trigger or fire buttons of the +joysticks produce pseudo key scan codes above those used by the largest key +matrix envisioned (i.e. JOYSTICK0=0x74, JOYSTICK1=0x75). + +Time-of-Day Clock +================= + +The ikbd also maintains a time-of-day clock for the system. Commands are +available to set and interrogate the timer-of-day clock. Time-keeping is +maintained down to a resolution of one second. + +Status Inquiries +================ + +The current state of ikbd modes and parameters may be found by sending status +inquiry commands that correspond to the ikbd set commands. + +Power-Up Mode +============= + +The keyboard controller will perform a simple self-test on power-up to detect +major controller faults (ROM checksum and RAM test) and such things as stuck +keys. Any keys down at power-up are presumed to be stuck, and their BREAK +(sic) code is returned (which without the preceding MAKE code is a flag for a +keyboard error). If the controller self-test completes without error, the code +0xF0 is returned. (This code will be used to indicate the version/release of +the ikbd controller. The first release of the ikbd is version 0xF0, should +there be a second release it will be 0xF1, and so on.) +The ikbd defaults to a mouse position reporting with threshold of 1 unit in +either axis and the Y=0 origin at the top of the screen, and joystick event +reporting mode for joystick 1, with both buttons being logically assigned to +the mouse. After any joystick command, the ikbd assumes that joysticks are +connected to both Joystick0 and Joystick1. Any mouse command (except MOUSE +DISABLE) then causes port 0 to again be scanned as if it were a mouse, and +both buttons are logically connected to it. If a mouse disable command is +received while port 0 is presumed to be a mouse, the button is logically +assigned to Joystick1 (until the mouse is reenabled by another mouse command). + +ikbd Command Set +================ + +This section contains a list of commands that can be sent to the ikbd. Command +codes (such as 0x00) which are not specified should perform no operation +(NOPs). + +RESET +----- + +:: + + 0x80 + 0x01 + +N.B. The RESET command is the only two byte command understood by the ikbd. +Any byte following an 0x80 command byte other than 0x01 is ignored (and causes +the 0x80 to be ignored). +A reset may also be caused by sending a break lasting at least 200mS to the +ikbd. +Executing the RESET command returns the keyboard to its default (power-up) +mode and parameter settings. It does not affect the time-of-day clock. +The RESET command or function causes the ikbd to perform a simple self-test. +If the test is successful, the ikbd will send the code of 0xF0 within 300mS +of receipt of the RESET command (or the end of the break, or power-up). The +ikbd will then scan the key matrix for any stuck (closed) keys. Any keys found +closed will cause the break scan code to be generated (the break code arriving +without being preceded by the make code is a flag for a key matrix error). + +SET MOUSE BUTTON ACTION +----------------------- + +:: + + 0x07 + %00000mss ; mouse button action + ; (m is presumed = 1 when in MOUSE KEYCODE mode) + ; mss=0xy, mouse button press or release causes mouse + ; position report + ; where y=1, mouse key press causes absolute report + ; and x=1, mouse key release causes absolute report + ; mss=100, mouse buttons act like keys + +This command sets how the ikbd should treat the buttons on the mouse. The +default mouse button action mode is %00000000, the buttons are treated as part +of the mouse logically. +When buttons act like keys, LEFT=0x74 & RIGHT=0x75. + +SET RELATIVE MOUSE POSITION REPORTING +------------------------------------- + +:: + + 0x08 + +Set relative mouse position reporting. (DEFAULT) Mouse position packets are +generated asynchronously by the ikbd whenever motion exceeds the setable +threshold in either axis (see SET MOUSE THRESHOLD). Depending upon the mouse +key mode, mouse position reports may also be generated when either mouse +button is pressed or released. Otherwise the mouse buttons behave as if they +were keyboard keys. + +SET ABSOLUTE MOUSE POSITIONING +------------------------------ + +:: + + 0x09 + XMSB ; X maximum (in scaled mouse clicks) + XLSB + YMSB ; Y maximum (in scaled mouse clicks) + YLSB + +Set absolute mouse position maintenance. Resets the ikbd maintained X and Y +coordinates. +In this mode, the value of the internally maintained coordinates does NOT wrap +between 0 and large positive numbers. Excess motion below 0 is ignored. The +command sets the maximum positive value that can be attained in the scaled +coordinate system. Motion beyond that value is also ignored. + +SET MOUSE KEYCODE MODE +---------------------- + +:: + + 0x0A + deltax ; distance in X clicks to return (LEFT) or (RIGHT) + deltay ; distance in Y clicks to return (UP) or (DOWN) + +Set mouse monitoring routines to return cursor motion keycodes instead of +either RELATIVE or ABSOLUTE motion records. The ikbd returns the appropriate +cursor keycode after mouse travel exceeding the user specified deltas in +either axis. When the keyboard is in key scan code mode, mouse motion will +cause the make code immediately followed by the break code. Note that this +command is not affected by the mouse motion origin. + +SET MOUSE THRESHOLD +------------------- + +:: + + 0x0B + X ; x threshold in mouse ticks (positive integers) + Y ; y threshold in mouse ticks (positive integers) + +This command sets the threshold before a mouse event is generated. Note that +it does NOT affect the resolution of the data returned to the host. This +command is valid only in RELATIVE MOUSE POSITIONING mode. The thresholds +default to 1 at RESET (or power-up). + +SET MOUSE SCALE +--------------- + +:: + + 0x0C + X ; horizontal mouse ticks per internal X + Y ; vertical mouse ticks per internal Y + +This command sets the scale factor for the ABSOLUTE MOUSE POSITIONING mode. +In this mode, the specified number of mouse phase changes ('clicks') must +occur before the internally maintained coordinate is changed by one +(independently scaled for each axis). Remember that the mouse position +information is available only by interrogating the ikbd in the ABSOLUTE MOUSE +POSITIONING mode unless the ikbd has been commanded to report on button press +or release (see SET MOUSE BUTTON ACTION). + +INTERROGATE MOUSE POSITION +-------------------------- + +:: + + 0x0D + Returns: + 0xF7 ; absolute mouse position header + BUTTONS + 0000dcba ; where a is right button down since last interrogation + ; b is right button up since last + ; c is left button down since last + ; d is left button up since last + XMSB ; X coordinate + XLSB + YMSB ; Y coordinate + YLSB + +The INTERROGATE MOUSE POSITION command is valid when in the ABSOLUTE MOUSE +POSITIONING mode, regardless of the setting of the MOUSE BUTTON ACTION. + +LOAD MOUSE POSITION +------------------- + +:: + + 0x0E + 0x00 ; filler + XMSB ; X coordinate + XLSB ; (in scaled coordinate system) + YMSB ; Y coordinate + YLSB + +This command allows the user to preset the internally maintained absolute +mouse position. + +SET Y=0 AT BOTTOM +----------------- + +:: + + 0x0F + +This command makes the origin of the Y axis to be at the bottom of the +logical coordinate system internal to the ikbd for all relative or absolute +mouse motion. This causes mouse motion toward the user to be negative in sign +and away from the user to be positive. + +SET Y=0 AT TOP +-------------- + +:: + + 0x10 + +Makes the origin of the Y axis to be at the top of the logical coordinate +system within the ikbd for all relative or absolute mouse motion. (DEFAULT) +This causes mouse motion toward the user to be positive in sign and away from +the user to be negative. + +RESUME +------ + +:: + + 0x11 + +Resume sending data to the host. Since any command received by the ikbd after +its output has been paused also causes an implicit RESUME this command can be +thought of as a NO OPERATION command. If this command is received by the ikbd +and it is not PAUSED, it is simply ignored. + +DISABLE MOUSE +------------- + +:: + + 0x12 + +All mouse event reporting is disabled (and scanning may be internally +disabled). Any valid mouse mode command resumes mouse motion monitoring. (The +valid mouse mode commands are SET RELATIVE MOUSE POSITION REPORTING, SET +ABSOLUTE MOUSE POSITIONING, and SET MOUSE KEYCODE MODE. ) +N.B. If the mouse buttons have been commanded to act like keyboard keys, this +command DOES affect their actions. + +PAUSE OUTPUT +------------ + +:: + + 0x13 + +Stop sending data to the host until another valid command is received. Key +matrix activity is still monitored and scan codes or ASCII characters enqueued +(up to the maximum supported by the microcontroller) to be sent when the host +allows the output to be resumed. If in the JOYSTICK EVENT REPORTING mode, +joystick events are also queued. +Mouse motion should be accumulated while the output is paused. If the ikbd is +in RELATIVE MOUSE POSITIONING REPORTING mode, motion is accumulated beyond the +normal threshold limits to produce the minimum number of packets necessary for +transmission when output is resumed. Pressing or releasing either mouse button +causes any accumulated motion to be immediately queued as packets, if the +mouse is in RELATIVE MOUSE POSITION REPORTING mode. +Because of the limitations of the microcontroller memory this command should +be used sparingly, and the output should not be shut of for more than <tbd> +milliseconds at a time. +The output is stopped only at the end of the current 'even'. If the PAUSE +OUTPUT command is received in the middle of a multiple byte report, the packet +will still be transmitted to conclusion and then the PAUSE will take effect. +When the ikbd is in either the JOYSTICK MONITORING mode or the FIRE BUTTON +MONITORING mode, the PAUSE OUTPUT command also temporarily stops the +monitoring process (i.e. the samples are not enqueued for transmission). + +SET JOYSTICK EVENT REPORTING +---------------------------- + +:: + + 0x14 + +Enter JOYSTICK EVENT REPORTING mode (DEFAULT). Each opening or closure of a +joystick switch or trigger causes a joystick event record to be generated. + +SET JOYSTICK INTERROGATION MODE +------------------------------- + +:: + + 0x15 + +Disables JOYSTICK EVENT REPORTING. Host must send individual JOYSTICK +INTERROGATE commands to sense joystick state. + +JOYSTICK INTERROGATE +-------------------- + +:: + + 0x16 + +Return a record indicating the current state of the joysticks.

The rate sets the interval +between joystick samples. +N.B. The user should not set the rate higher than the serial communications +channel will allow the 2 bytes packets to be transmitted. + +SET FIRE BUTTON MONITORING +-------------------------- + +:: + + 0x18 + Returns: (as long as in mode) + %bbbbbbbb ; state of the JOYSTICK1 fire button packed + ; 8 bits per byte, the first sample if the MSB + +Set the ikbd to do nothing but monitor the serial command line, maintain the +time-of-day clock, and monitor the fire button on Joystick 1. The fire button +is scanned at a rate that causes 8 samples to be made in the time it takes for +the previous byte to be sent to the host (i.e. scan rate = 8/10 * baud rate). +The sample interval should be as constant as possible. + +SET JOYSTICK KEYCODE MODE +------------------------- + +:: + + 0x19 + RX ; length of time (in tenths of seconds) until + ; horizontal velocity breakpoint is reached + RY ; length of time (in tenths of seconds) until + ; vertical velocity breakpoint is reached + TX ; length (in tenths of seconds) of joystick closure + ; until horizontal cursor key is generated before RX + ; has elapsed + TY ; length (in tenths of seconds) of joystick closure + ; until vertical cursor key is generated before RY + ; has elapsed + VX ; length (in tenths of seconds) of joystick closure + ; until horizontal cursor keystrokes are generated + ; after RX has elapsed + VY ; length (in tenths of seconds) of joystick closure + ; until vertical cursor keystrokes are generated + ; after RY has elapsed + +In this mode, joystick 0 is scanned in a way that simulates cursor keystrokes. +On initial closure, a keystroke pair (make/break) is generated. Then up to Rn +tenths of seconds later, keystroke pairs are generated every Tn tenths of +seconds. After the Rn breakpoint is reached, keystroke pairs are generated +every Vn tenths of seconds. This provides a velocity (auto-repeat) breakpoint +feature. +Note that by setting RX and/or Ry to zero, the velocity feature can be +disabled.

Version 1 is found in "older" laptops and uses 4 bytes per +packet. Version 2 seems to be introduced with the EeePC and uses 6 bytes +per packet, and provides additional features such as position of two fingers, +and width of the touch. Hardware version 3 uses 6 bytes per packet (and +for 2 fingers the concatenation of two 6 bytes packets) and allows tracking +of up to 3 fingers. Hardware version 4 uses 6 bytes per packet, and can +combine a status packet with multiple head or motion packets. Hardware version +4 allows tracking up to 5 fingers. + +Some Hardware version 3 and version 4 also have a trackpoint which uses a +separate packet format. It is also 6 bytes per packet. + +The driver tries to support both hardware versions and should be compatible +with the Xorg Synaptics touchpad driver and its graphical configuration +utilities. + +Note that a mouse button is also associated with either the touchpad or the +trackpoint when a trackpoint is available. Disabling the Touchpad in xorg +(TouchPadOff=0) will also disable the buttons associated with the touchpad. + +Additionally the operation of the touchpad can be altered by adjusting the +contents of some of its internal registers. These registers are represented +by the driver as sysfs entries under /sys/bus/serio/drivers/psmouse/serio? +that can be read from and written to. + +Currently only the registers for hardware version 1 are somewhat understood. +Hardware version 2 seems to use some of the same registers but it is not +known whether the bits in the registers represent the same thing or might +have changed their meaning. + +On top of that, some register settings have effect only when the touchpad is +in relative mode and not in absolute mode. As the Linux Elantech touchpad +driver always puts the hardware into absolute mode not all information +mentioned below can be used immediately. But because there is no freely +available Elantech documentation the information is provided here anyway for +completeness sake. + + +Extra knobs +~~~~~~~~~~~ + +Currently the Linux Elantech touchpad driver provides three extra knobs under +/sys/bus/serio/drivers/psmouse/serio? for the user. + +* debug + + Turn different levels of debugging ON or OFF. + + By echoing "0" to this file all debugging will be turned OFF. + + Currently a value of "1" will turn on some basic debugging and a value of + "2" will turn on packet debugging. For hardware version 1 the default is + OFF. For version 2 the default is "1". + + Turning packet debugging on will make the driver dump every packet + received to the syslog before processing it. Be warned that this can + generate quite a lot of data! + +* paritycheck + + Turns parity checking ON or OFF. + + By echoing "0" to this file parity checking will be turned OFF. Any + non-zero value will turn it ON. For hardware version 1 the default is ON. + For version 2 the default it is OFF. + + Hardware version 1 provides basic data integrity verification by + calculating a parity bit for the last 3 bytes of each packet. The driver + can check these bits and reject any packet that appears corrupted. Using + this knob you can bypass that check. + + Hardware version 2 does not provide the same parity bits. Only some basic + data consistency checking can be done. For now checking is disabled by + default. Currently even turning it on will do nothing. + +* crc_enabled + + Sets crc_enabled to 0/1. The name "crc_enabled" is the official name of + this integrity check, even though it is not an actual cyclic redundancy + check. + + Depending on the state of crc_enabled, certain basic data integrity + verification is done by the driver on hardware version 3 and 4. The + driver will reject any packet that appears corrupted. Using this knob, + The state of crc_enabled can be altered with this knob. + + Reading the crc_enabled value will show the active value. Echoing + "0" or "1" to this file will set the state to "0" or "1". + +Differentiating hardware versions +~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ + +To detect the hardware version, read the version number as param[0].param[1].param[2]:: + + 4 bytes version: (after the arrow is the name given in the Dell-provided driver) + 02.00.22 => EF013 + 02.06.00 => EF019 + +In the wild, there appear to be more versions, such as 00.01.64, 01.00.21, +02.00.00, 02.00.04, 02.00.06:: + + 6 bytes: + 02.00.30 => EF113 + 02.08.00 => EF023 + 02.08.XX => EF123 + 02.0B.00 => EF215 + 04.01.XX => Scroll_EF051 + 04.02.XX => EF051 + +In the wild, there appear to be more versions, such as 04.03.01, 04.04.11. There +appears to be almost no difference, except for EF113, which does not report +pressure/width and has different data consistency checks. + +Probably all the versions with param[0] <= 01 can be considered as +4 bytes/firmware 1.

So, use it at your own risk. The possible damages that can +happen include burning your parallel port, and/or the sticks and joystick +and maybe even more. Like when a lightning kills you it is not our problem. + +Introduction +============ + +The joystick parport drivers are used for joysticks and gamepads not +originally designed for PCs and other computers Linux runs on. Because of +that, PCs usually lack the right ports to connect these devices to. Parallel +port, because of its ability to change single bits at will, and providing +both output and input bits is the most suitable port on the PC for +connecting such devices. + +Devices supported +================= + +Many console and 8-bit computer gamepads and joysticks are supported. The +following subsections discuss usage of each. + +NES and SNES +------------ + +The Nintendo Entertainment System and Super Nintendo Entertainment System +gamepads are widely available, and easy to get. Also, they are quite easy to +connect to a PC, and don't need much processing speed (108 us for NES and +165 us for SNES, compared to about 1000 us for PC gamepads) to communicate +with them. + +All NES and SNES use the same synchronous serial protocol, clocked from +the computer's side (and thus timing insensitive). To allow up to 5 NES +and/or SNES gamepads and/or SNES mice connected to the parallel port at once, +the output lines of the parallel port are shared, while one of 5 available +input lines is assigned to each gamepad. + +This protocol is handled by the gamecon.c driver, so that's the one +you'll use for NES, SNES gamepads and SNES mice. + +The main problem with PC parallel ports is that they don't have +5V power +source on any of their pins. So, if you want a reliable source of power +for your pads, use either keyboard or joystick port, and make a pass-through +cable. You can also pull the power directly from the power supply (the red +wire is +5V). + +If you want to use the parallel port only, you can take the power is from +some data pin. For most gamepad and parport implementations only one pin is +needed, and I'd recommend pin 9 for that, the highest data bit. On the other +hand, if you are not planning to use anything else than NES / SNES on the +port, anything between and including pin 4 and pin 9 will work:: + + (pin 9) -----> Power + +Unfortunately, there are pads that need a lot more of power, and parallel +ports that can't give much current through the data pins. If this is your +case, you'll need to use diodes (as a prevention of destroying your parallel +port), and combine the currents of two or more data bits together:: + + Diodes + (pin 9) ----|>|-------+------> Power + | + (pin 8) ----|>|-------+ + | + (pin 7) ----|>|-------+ + | + <and so on> : + | + (pin 4) ----|>|-------+ + +Ground is quite easy. On PC's parallel port the ground is on any of the +pins from pin 18 to pin 25. So use any pin of these you like for the ground:: + + (pin 18) -----> Ground + +NES and SNES pads have two input bits, Clock and Latch, which drive the +serial transfer. These are connected to pins 2 and 3 of the parallel port, +respectively:: + + (pin 2) -----> Clock + (pin 3) -----> Latch + +And the last thing is the NES / SNES data wire. Only that isn't shared and +each pad needs its own data pin. The parallel port pins are:: + + (pin 10) -----> Pad 1 data + (pin 11) -----> Pad 2 data + (pin 12) -----> Pad 3 data + (pin 13) -----> Pad 4 data + (pin 15) -----> Pad 5 data + +Note that pin 14 is not used, since it is not an input pin on the parallel +port. + +This is everything you need on the PC's side of the connection, now on to +the gamepads side. The NES and SNES have different connectors. Also, there +are quite a lot of NES clones, and because Nintendo used proprietary +connectors for their machines, the cloners couldn't and used standard D-Cannon +connectors. Anyway, if you've got a gamepad, and it has buttons A, B, Turbo +A, Turbo B, Select and Start, and is connected through 5 wires, then it is +either a NES or NES clone and will work with this connection. SNES gamepads +also use 5 wires, but have more buttons. They will work as well, of course:: + + Pinout for NES gamepads Pinout for SNES gamepads and mice + + +----> Power +-----------------------\ + | 7 | o o o o | x x o | 1 + 5 +---------+ 7 +-----------------------/ + | x x o \ | | | | | + | o o o o | | | | | +-> Ground + 4 +------------+ 1 | | | +------------> Data + | | | | | | +---------------> Latch + | | | +-> Ground | +------------------> Clock + | | +----> Clock +---------------------> Power + | +-------> Latch + +----------> Data + + Pinout for NES clone (db9) gamepads Pinout for NES clone (db15) gamepads + + +---------> Clock +-----------------> Data + | +-------> Latch | +---> Ground + | | +-----> Data | | + | | | ___________________ + _____________ 8 \ o x x x x x x o / 1 + 5 \ x o o o x / 1 \ o x x o x x o / + \ x o x o / 15 `~~~~~~~~~~~~~' 9 + 9 `~~~~~~~' 6 | | | + | | | | +----> Clock + | +----> Power | +----------> Latch + +--------> Ground +----------------> Power + +Multisystem joysticks +--------------------- + +In the era of 8-bit machines, there was something like de-facto standard +for joystick ports.

Because of that, a single joystick could be used without +hassle on Atari (130, 800XE, 800XL, 2600, 7200), Amiga, Commodore C64, +Amstrad CPC, Sinclair ZX Spectrum and many other machines.

It allows only one joystick / gamepad per parallel port, but +the interface is easy to build and works with almost anything. + +For the basic 1-button Multisystem joystick you connect its wires to the +parallel port like this:: + + (pin 1) -----> Power + (pin 18) -----> Ground + + (pin 2) -----> Up + (pin 3) -----> Down + (pin 4) -----> Left + (pin 5) -----> Right + (pin 6) -----> Button 1 + +However, if the joystick is switch based (eg. clicks when you move it), +you might or might not, depending on your parallel port, need 10 kOhm pullup +resistors on each of the direction and button signals, like this:: + + (pin 2) ------------+------> Up + Resistor | + (pin 1) --[10kOhm]--+ + +Try without, and if it doesn't work, add them. For TTL based joysticks / +gamepads the pullups are not needed. + +For joysticks with two buttons you connect the second button to pin 7 on +the parallel port:: + + (pin 7) -----> Button 2 + +And that's it. + +On a side note, if you have already built a different adapter for use with +the digital joystick driver 0.8.0.2, this is also supported by the db9.c +driver, as device type 8. (See section 3.2) + +Multisystem joysticks using gamecon.c +~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ + +For some people just one joystick per parallel port is not enough, and/or +want to use them on one parallel port together with NES/SNES/PSX pads. This is +possible using the gamecon.c. It supports up to 5 devices of the above types, +including 1 and 2 buttons Multisystem joysticks. + +However, there is nothing for free. To allow more sticks to be used at +once, you need the sticks to be purely switch based (that is non-TTL), and +not to need power. Just a plain simple six switches inside. If your +joystick can do more (eg. turbofire) you'll need to disable it totally first +if you want to use gamecon.c. + +Also, the connection is a bit more complex. You'll need a bunch of diodes, +and one pullup resistor. First, you connect the Directions and the button +the same as for db9, however with the diodes between:: + + Diodes + (pin 2) -----|<|----> Up + (pin 3) -----|<|----> Down + (pin 4) -----|<|----> Left + (pin 5) -----|<|----> Right + (pin 6) -----|<|----> Button 1 + +For two button sticks you also connect the other button:: + + (pin 7) -----|<|----> Button 2 + +And finally, you connect the Ground wire of the joystick, like done in +this little schematic to Power and Data on the parallel port, as described +for the NES / SNES pads in section 2.1 of this file - that is, one data pin +for each joystick. The power source is shared:: + + Data ------------+-----> Ground + Resistor | + Power --[10kOhm]--+ + +And that's all, here we go! + +Multisystem joysticks using turbografx.c +~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ + +The TurboGraFX interface, designed by + + Steffen Schwenke <schwenke@burg-halle.de> + +allows up to 7 Multisystem joysticks connected to the parallel port. In +Steffen's version, there is support for up to 5 buttons per joystick. However, +since this doesn't work reliably on all parallel ports, the turbografx.c driver +supports only one button per joystick.

Most +seem to be 12" sensors (Dell Latitude XT and XT2 and the HP TX2), and +at least one model (Dell Studio 17) has a 17" sensor. The ratio of physical +to logical sizes is used to adjust the size based filter parameters. + + +Filtering +--------- + +With the release of the early multi-touch firmwares it became increasingly +obvious that these sensors were prone to erroneous events. Users reported +seeing both inappropriately dropped contact and ghosts, contacts reported +where no finger was actually touching the screen. + +Deactivation slack helps prevent dropped contact for single touch use, but does +not address the problem of dropping one of more contacts while other contacts +are still active. Drops in the multi-touch context require additional +processing and should be handled in tandem with tacking. + +As observed ghost contacts are similar to actual use of the sensor, but they +seem to have different profiles. Ghost activity typically shows up as small +short lived touches. As such, I assume that the longer the continuous stream +of events the more likely those events are from a real contact, and that the +larger the size of each contact the more likely it is real. Balancing the +goals of preventing ghosts and accepting real events quickly (to minimize +user observable latency), the filter accumulates confidence for incoming +events until it hits thresholds and begins propagating. In the interest in +minimizing stored state as well as the cost of operations to make a decision, +I've kept that decision simple. + +Time is measured in terms of the number of fingers reported, not frames since +the probability of multiple simultaneous ghosts is expected to drop off +dramatically with increasing numbers. Rather than accumulate weight as a +function of size, I just use it as a binary threshold. A sufficiently large +contact immediately overrides the waiting period and leads to activation. + +Setting the activation size thresholds to large values will result in deciding +primarily on activation slack. If you see longer lived ghosts, turning up the +activation slack while reducing the size thresholds may suffice to eliminate +the ghosts while keeping the screen quite responsive to firm taps. + +Contacts continue to be filtered with min_height and min_width even after +the initial activation filter is satisfied. The intent is to provide +a mechanism for filtering out ghosts in the form of an extra finger while +you actually are using the screen. In practice this sort of ghost has +been far less problematic or relatively rare and I've left the defaults +set to 0 for both parameters, effectively turning off that filter. + +I don't know what the optimal values are for these filters. If the defaults +don't work for you, please play with the parameters. If you do find other +values more comfortable, I would appreciate feedback. + +The calibration of these devices does drift over time.

It has a long history and has enjoyed considerable usage +as Windows' xinput library caused most PC games to focus on Xbox +controller compatibility. + +Due to backwards compatibility all buttons are reported as digital. +This only affects Original Xbox controllers. All later controller models +have only digital face buttons. + +Rumble is supported on some models of Xbox 360 controllers but not of +Original Xbox controllers nor on Xbox One controllers. As of writing +the Xbox One's rumble protocol has not been reverse-engineered but in +the future could be supported. + + +Notes +===== + +The number of buttons/axes reported varies based on 3 things: + +- if you are using a known controller +- if you are using a known dance pad +- if using an unknown device (one not listed below), what you set in the + module configuration for "Map D-PAD to buttons rather than axes for unknown + pads" (module option dpad_to_buttons) + +If you set dpad_to_buttons to N and you are using an unknown device +the driver will map the directional pad to axes (X/Y). +If you said Y it will map the d-pad to buttons, which is needed for dance +style games to function correctly. The default is Y. + +dpad_to_buttons has no effect for known pads. A erroneous commit message +claimed dpad_to_buttons could be used to force behavior on known devices. +This is not true. Both dpad_to_buttons and triggers_to_buttons only affect +unknown controllers. + + +Normal Controllers +------------------ + +With a normal controller, the directional pad is mapped to its own X/Y axes. +The jstest-program from joystick-1.2.15 (jstest-version 2.1.0) will report 8 +axes and 10 buttons. + +All 8 axes work, though they all have the same range (-32768..32767) +and the zero-setting is not correct for the triggers (I don't know if that +is some limitation of jstest, since the input device setup should be fine. I +didn't have a look at jstest itself yet). + +All of the 10 buttons work (in digital mode). The six buttons on the +right side (A, B, X, Y, black, white) are said to be "analog" and +report their values as 8 bit unsigned, not sure what this is good for. + +I tested the controller with quake3, and configuration and +in game functionality were OK. However, I find it rather difficult to +play first person shooters with a pad. Your mileage may vary. + + +Xbox Dance Pads +--------------- + +When using a known dance pad, jstest will report 6 axes and 14 buttons. + +For dance style pads (like the redoctane pad) several changes +have been made. The old driver would map the d-pad to axes, resulting +in the driver being unable to report when the user was pressing both +left+right or up+down, making DDR style games unplayable. + +Known dance pads automatically map the d-pad to buttons and will work +correctly out of the box. + +If your dance pad is recognized by the driver but is using axes instead +of buttons, see section 0.3 - Unknown Controllers + +I've tested this with Stepmania, and it works quite well. + + +Unknown Controllers +------------------- + +If you have an unknown Xbox controller, it should work just fine with +the default settings. + +HOWEVER if you have an unknown dance pad not listed below, it will not +work UNLESS you set "dpad_to_buttons" to 1 in the module configuration. + + +USB adapters +============ + +All generations of Xbox controllers speak USB over the wire. + +- Original Xbox controllers use a proprietary connector and require adapters. +- Wireless Xbox 360 controllers require a 'Xbox 360 Wireless Gaming Receiver + for Windows' +- Wired Xbox 360 controllers use standard USB connectors. +- Xbox One controllers can be wireless but speak Wi-Fi Direct and are not + yet supported. +- Xbox One controllers can be wired and use standard Micro-USB connectors. + + + +Original Xbox USB adapters +-------------------------- + +Using this driver with an Original Xbox controller requires an +adapter cable to break out the proprietary connector's pins to USB. +You can buy these online fairly cheap, or build your own. + +Such a cable is pretty easy to build. The Controller itself is a USB +compound device (a hub with three ports for two expansion slots and +the controller device) with the only difference in a nonstandard connector +(5 pins vs. 4 on standard USB 1.0 connectors). + +You just need to solder a USB connector onto the cable and keep the +yellow wire unconnected. The other pins have the same order on both +connectors so there is no magic to it. Detailed info on these matters +can be found on the net ([1]_, [2]_, [3]_). + +Thanks to the trip splitter found on the cable you don't even need to cut the +original one. You can buy an extension cable and cut that instead. That way, +you can still use the controller with your Xbox, if you have one ;) + + + +Driver Installation +=================== + +Once you have the adapter cable, if needed, and the controller connected +the xpad module should be auto loaded.

This document describes the types and codes and how and when they +may be used. + +A single hardware event generates multiple input events. Each input event +contains the new value of a single data item. A special event type, EV_SYN, is +used to separate input events into packets of input data changes occurring at +the same moment in time. In the following, the term "event" refers to a single +input event encompassing a type, code, and value. + +The input protocol is a stateful protocol. Events are emitted only when values +of event codes have changed. However, the state is maintained within the Linux +input subsystem; drivers do not need to maintain the state and may attempt to +emit unchanged values without harm. Userspace may obtain the current state of +event code values using the EVIOCG* ioctls defined in linux/input.h. The event +reports supported by a device are also provided by sysfs in +class/input/event*/device/capabilities/, and the properties of a device are +provided in class/input/event*/device/properties. + +Event types +=========== + +Event types are groupings of codes under a logical input construct. Each +type has a set of applicable codes to be used in generating events. See the +Codes section for details on valid codes for each type. + +* EV_SYN: + + - Used as markers to separate events. Events may be separated in time or in + space, such as with the multitouch protocol. + +* EV_KEY: + + - Used to describe state changes of keyboards, buttons, or other key-like + devices. + +* EV_REL: + + - Used to describe relative axis value changes, e.g. moving the mouse 5 units + to the left. + +* EV_ABS: + + - Used to describe absolute axis value changes, e.g. describing the + coordinates of a touch on a touchscreen. + +* EV_MSC: + + - Used to describe miscellaneous input data that do not fit into other types. + +* EV_SW: + + - Used to describe binary state input switches. + +* EV_LED: + + - Used to turn LEDs on devices on and off. + +* EV_SND: + + - Used to output sound to devices. + +* EV_REP: + + - Used for autorepeating devices. + +* EV_FF: + + - Used to send force feedback commands to an input device. + +* EV_PWR: + + - A special type for power button and switch input. + +* EV_FF_STATUS: + + - Used to receive force feedback device status. + +Event codes +=========== + +Event codes define the precise type of event. + +EV_SYN +------ + +EV_SYN event values are undefined. Their usage is defined only by when they are +sent in the evdev event stream. + +* SYN_REPORT: + + - Used to synchronize and separate events into packets of input data changes + occurring at the same moment in time. For example, motion of a mouse may set + the REL_X and REL_Y values for one motion, then emit a SYN_REPORT. The next + motion will emit more REL_X and REL_Y values and send another SYN_REPORT. + +* SYN_CONFIG: + + - TBD + +* SYN_MT_REPORT: + + - Used to synchronize and separate touch events. See the + multi-touch-protocol.txt document for more information. + +* SYN_DROPPED: + + - Used to indicate buffer overrun in the evdev client's event queue. + Client should ignore all events up to and including next SYN_REPORT + event and query the device (using EVIOCG* ioctls) to obtain its + current state. + +EV_KEY +------ + +EV_KEY events take the form KEY_<name> or BTN_<name>. For example, KEY_A is used +to represent the 'A' key on a keyboard. When a key is depressed, an event with +the key's code is emitted with value 1. When the key is released, an event is +emitted with value 0. Some hardware send events when a key is repeated. These +events have a value of 2. In general, KEY_<name> is used for keyboard keys, and +BTN_<name> is used for other types of momentary switch events. + +A few EV_KEY codes have special meanings: + +* BTN_TOOL_<name>: + + - These codes are used in conjunction with input trackpads, tablets, and + touchscreens. These devices may be used with fingers, pens, or other tools. + When an event occurs and a tool is used, the corresponding BTN_TOOL_<name> + code should be set to a value of 1. When the tool is no longer interacting + with the input device, the BTN_TOOL_<name> code should be reset to 0. All + trackpads, tablets, and touchscreens should use at least one BTN_TOOL_<name> + code when events are generated. Likewise all trackpads, tablets, and + touchscreens should export only one BTN_TOOL_<name> at a time. To not break + existing userspace, it is recommended to not switch tool in one EV_SYN frame + but first emitting the old BTN_TOOL_<name> at 0, then emit one SYN_REPORT + and then set the new BTN_TOOL_<name> at 1. + +* BTN_TOUCH: + + BTN_TOUCH is used for touch contact. While an input tool is determined to be + within meaningful physical contact, the value of this property must be set + to 1. Meaningful physical contact may mean any contact, or it may mean + contact conditioned by an implementation defined property. For example, a + touchpad may set the value to 1 only when the touch pressure rises above a + certain value. BTN_TOUCH may be combined with BTN_TOOL_<name> codes. For + example, a pen tablet may set BTN_TOOL_PEN to 1 and BTN_TOUCH to 0 while the + pen is hovering over but not touching the tablet surface. + +Note: For appropriate function of the legacy mousedev emulation driver, +BTN_TOUCH must be the first evdev code emitted in a synchronization frame. + +Note: Historically a touch device with BTN_TOOL_FINGER and BTN_TOUCH was +interpreted as a touchpad by userspace, while a similar device without +BTN_TOOL_FINGER was interpreted as a touchscreen. For backwards compatibility +with current userspace it is recommended to follow this distinction. In the +future, this distinction will be deprecated and the device properties ioctl +EVIOCGPROP, defined in linux/input.h, will be used to convey the device type. + +* BTN_TOOL_FINGER, BTN_TOOL_DOUBLETAP, BTN_TOOL_TRIPLETAP, BTN_TOOL_QUADTAP: + + - These codes denote one, two, three, and four finger interaction on a + trackpad or touchscreen. For example, if the user uses two fingers and moves + them on the touchpad in an effort to scroll content on screen, + BTN_TOOL_DOUBLETAP should be set to value 1 for the duration of the motion. + Note that all BTN_TOOL_<name> codes and the BTN_TOUCH code are orthogonal in + purpose. A trackpad event generated by finger touches should generate events + for one code from each group. At most only one of these BTN_TOOL_<name> + codes should have a value of 1 during any synchronization frame. + +Note: Historically some drivers emitted multiple of the finger count codes with +a value of 1 in the same synchronization frame. This usage is deprecated. + +Note: In multitouch drivers, the input_mt_report_finger_count() function should +be used to emit these codes. Please see multi-touch-protocol.txt for details. + +EV_REL +------ + +EV_REL events describe relative changes in a property. For example, a mouse may +move to the left by a certain number of units, but its absolute position in +space is unknown. If the absolute position is known, EV_ABS codes should be used +instead of EV_REL codes. + +A few EV_REL codes have special meanings: + +* REL_WHEEL, REL_HWHEEL: + + - These codes are used for vertical and horizontal scroll wheels, + respectively. The value is the number of detents moved on the wheel, the + physical size of which varies by device. For high-resolution wheels + this may be an approximation based on the high-resolution scroll events, + see REL_WHEEL_HI_RES. These event codes are legacy codes and + REL_WHEEL_HI_RES and REL_HWHEEL_HI_RES should be preferred where + available. + +* REL_WHEEL_HI_RES, REL_HWHEEL_HI_RES: + + - High-resolution scroll wheel data. The accumulated value 120 represents + movement by one detent. For devices that do not provide high-resolution + scrolling, the value is always a multiple of 120. For devices with + high-resolution scrolling, the value may be a fraction of 120. + + If a vertical scroll wheel supports high-resolution scrolling, this code + will be emitted in addition to REL_WHEEL or REL_HWHEEL. The REL_WHEEL + and REL_HWHEEL may be an approximation based on the high-resolution + scroll events. There is no guarantee that the high-resolution data + is a multiple of 120 at the time of an emulated REL_WHEEL or REL_HWHEEL + event. + +EV_ABS +------ + +EV_ABS events describe absolute changes in a property. For example, a touchpad +may emit coordinates for a touch location. + +A few EV_ABS codes have special meanings: + +* ABS_DISTANCE: + + - Used to describe the distance of a tool from an interaction surface. This + event should only be emitted while the tool is hovering, meaning in close + proximity of the device and while the value of the BTN_TOUCH code is 0. If + the input device may be used freely in three dimensions, consider ABS_Z + instead. + - BTN_TOOL_<name> should be set to 1 when the tool comes into detectable + proximity and set to 0 when the tool leaves detectable proximity. + BTN_TOOL_<name> signals the type of tool that is currently detected by the + hardware and is otherwise independent of ABS_DISTANCE and/or BTN_TOUCH. + +* ABS_PROFILE: + + - Used to describe the state of a multi-value profile switch. An event is + emitted only when the selected profile changes, indicating the newly + selected profile value. + +* ABS_SND_PROFILE: + + - Used to describe the state of a multi-value sound profile switch. + An event is emitted only when the selected profile changes, + indicating the newly selected profile value. + +* ABS_MT_<name>: + + - Used to describe multitouch input events. Please see + multi-touch-protocol.txt for details. + +* ABS_PRESSURE/ABS_MT_PRESSURE: + + - For touch devices, many devices converted contact size into pressure. + A finger flattens with pressure, causing a larger contact area and thus + pressure and contact size are directly related. This is not the case + for other devices, for example digitizers and touchpads with a true + pressure sensor ("pressure pads"). + + A device should set the resolution of the axis to indicate whether the + pressure is in measurable units. If the resolution is zero, the + pressure data is in arbitrary units. If the resolution is non-zero, the + pressure data is in units/gram. For example, a value of 10 with a + resolution of 1 represents 10 gram, a value of 10 with a resolution of + 1000 represents 10 microgram. + +EV_SW +----- + +EV_SW events describe stateful binary switches. For example, the SW_LID code is +used to denote when a laptop lid is closed. + +Upon binding to a device or resuming from suspend, a driver must report +the current switch state. This ensures that the device, kernel, and userspace +state is in sync. + +Upon resume, if the switch state is the same as before suspend, then the input +subsystem will filter out the duplicate switch state reports. The driver does +not need to keep the state of the switch at any time. + +EV_MSC +------ + +EV_MSC events are used for input and output events that do not fall under other +categories. + +A few EV_MSC codes have special meaning: + +* MSC_TIMESTAMP: + + - Used to report the number of microseconds since the last reset. This event + should be coded as an uint32 value, which is allowed to wrap around with + no special consequence. It is assumed that the time difference between two + consecutive events is reliable on a reasonable time scale (hours). + A reset to zero can happen, in which case the time since the last event is + unknown. If the device does not provide this information, the driver must + not provide it to user space. + +EV_LED +------ + +EV_LED events are used for input and output to set and query the state of +various LEDs on devices. + +EV_REP +------ + +EV_REP events are used for specifying autorepeating events. + +EV_SND +------ + +EV_SND events are used for sending sound commands to simple sound output +devices. + +EV_FF +----- + +EV_FF events are used to initialize a force feedback capable device and to cause +such device to feedback. + +EV_PWR +------ + +EV_PWR events are a special type of event used specifically for power +management. Its usage is not well defined. To be addressed later. + +Device properties +================= + +Normally, userspace sets up an input device based on the data it emits, +i.e., the event types. In the case of two devices emitting the same event +types, additional information can be provided in the form of device +properties. + +INPUT_PROP_DIRECT + INPUT_PROP_POINTER +-------------------------------------- + +The INPUT_PROP_DIRECT property indicates that device coordinates should be +directly mapped to screen coordinates (not taking into account trivial +transformations, such as scaling, flipping and rotating). Non-direct input +devices require non-trivial transformation, such as absolute to relative +transformation for touchpads. Typical direct input devices: touchscreens, +drawing tablets; non-direct devices: touchpads, mice. + +The INPUT_PROP_POINTER property indicates that the device is not transposed +on the screen and thus requires use of an on-screen pointer to trace user's +movements. Typical pointer devices: touchpads, tablets, mice; non-pointer +device: touchscreen. + +If neither INPUT_PROP_DIRECT or INPUT_PROP_POINTER are set, the property is +considered undefined and the device type should be deduced in the +traditional way, using emitted event types. + +INPUT_PROP_BUTTONPAD +-------------------- + +For touchpads where the button is placed beneath the surface, such that +pressing down on the pad causes a button click, this property should be +set. Common in Clickpad notebooks and Macbooks from 2009 and onwards. + +Originally, the buttonpad property was coded into the bcm5974 driver +version field under the name integrated button. For backwards +compatibility, both methods need to be checked in userspace. + +INPUT_PROP_SEMI_MT +------------------ + +Some touchpads, most common between 2008 and 2011, can detect the presence +of multiple contacts without resolving the individual positions; only the +number of contacts and a rectangular shape is known. For such +touchpads, the SEMI_MT property should be set. + +Depending on the device, the rectangle may enclose all touches, like a +bounding box, or just some of them, for instance the two most recent +touches. The diversity makes the rectangle of limited use, but some +gestures can normally be extracted from it. + +If INPUT_PROP_SEMI_MT is not set, the device is assumed to be a true MT +device. + +INPUT_PROP_TOPBUTTONPAD +----------------------- + +Some laptops, most notably the Lenovo 40 series provide a trackstick +device but do not have physical buttons associated with the trackstick +device. Instead, the top area of the touchpad is marked to show +visual/haptic areas for left, middle, right buttons intended to be used +with the trackstick. + +If INPUT_PROP_TOPBUTTONPAD is set, userspace should emulate buttons +accordingly. This property does not affect kernel behavior. +The kernel does not provide button emulation for such devices but treats +them as any other INPUT_PROP_BUTTONPAD device. + +INPUT_PROP_ACCELEROMETER +------------------------ + +Directional axes on this device (absolute and/or relative x, y, z) represent +accelerometer data. Some devices also report gyroscope data, which devices +can report through the rotational axes (absolute and/or relative rx, ry, rz). + +All other axes retain their meaning. A device must not mix +regular directional axes and accelerometer axes on the same event node. + +INPUT_PROP_PRESSUREPAD +---------------------- + +The INPUT_PROP_PRESSUREPAD property indicates that the device provides +simulated haptic feedback (e.g. a vibrator motor situated below the surface) +instead of physical haptic feedback (e.g. a hinge). This property is only set +if the device: + +- can differentiate between at least 5 fingers +- uses correct resolution for the X/Y (units and value) +- follows the MT protocol type B + +If the simulated haptic feedback is controllable by userspace the device must: + +- support simple haptic auto and manual triggering, and +- report correct force per touch, and correct units for them (newtons or grams), and +- provide the EV_FF FF_HAPTIC force feedback effect. + +Summing up, such devices follow the MS spec for input devices in +Win8 and Win8.1, and in addition may support the Simple haptic controller HID +table, and report correct units for the pressure. + +Where applicable, this property is set in addition to INPUT_PROP_BUTTONPAD, it +does not replace that property. + +Guidelines +========== + +The guidelines below ensure proper single-touch and multi-finger functionality. +For multi-touch functionality, see the multi-touch-protocol.rst document for +more information. + +Mice +---- + +REL_{X,Y} must be reported when the mouse moves. BTN_LEFT must be used to report +the primary button press. BTN_{MIDDLE,RIGHT,4,5,etc.} should be used to report +further buttons of the device. REL_WHEEL and REL_HWHEEL should be used to report +scroll wheel events where available. + +Touchscreens +------------ + +ABS_{X,Y} must be reported with the location of the touch. BTN_TOUCH must be +used to report when a touch is active on the screen. +BTN_{MOUSE,LEFT,MIDDLE,RIGHT} must not be reported as the result of touch +contact. BTN_TOOL_<name> events should be reported where possible. + +For new hardware, INPUT_PROP_DIRECT should be set. + +Trackpads +--------- + +Legacy trackpads that only provide relative position information must report +events like mice described above. + +Trackpads that provide absolute touch position must report ABS_{X,Y} for the +location of the touch. BTN_TOUCH should be used to report when a touch is active +on the trackpad. Where multi-finger support is available, BTN_TOOL_<name> should +be used to report the number of touches active on the trackpad. + +For new hardware, INPUT_PROP_POINTER should be set. + +Tablets +------- + +BTN_TOOL_<name> events must be reported when a stylus or other tool is active on +the tablet. ABS_{X,Y} must be reported with the location of the tool. BTN_TOUCH +should be used to report when the tool is in contact with the tablet. +BTN_{STYLUS,STYLUS2} should be used to report buttons on the tool itself. Any +button may be used for buttons on the tablet except BTN_{MOUSE,LEFT}. +BTN_{0,1,2,etc} are good generic codes for unlabeled buttons. Do not use +meaningful buttons, like BTN_FORWARD, unless the button is labeled for that +purpose on the device. + +For new hardware, both INPUT_PROP_DIRECT and INPUT_PROP_POINTER should be set. diff --git a/Documentation/input/ff.rst b/Documentation/input/ff.rst new file mode 100644 index 000000000..5a1da42c3 --- /dev/null +++ b/Documentation/input/ff.rst @@ -0,0 +1,265 @@ +======================== +Force feedback for Linux +======================== + +:Author: Johann Deneux <johann.deneux@gmail.com> on 2001/04/22. +:Updated: Anssi Hannula <anssi.hannula@gmail.com> on 2006/04/09. + +You may redistribute this file.

The +goal is not to support these devices as if they were simple input-only devices +(as it is already the case), but to really enable the rendering of force +effects. +This document only describes the force feedback part of the Linux input +interface. Please read joydev/joystick.rst and input.rst before reading further +this document. + +Instructions to the user +~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ + +To enable force feedback, you have to: + +1. have your kernel configured with evdev and a driver that supports your + device. +2. make sure evdev module is loaded and /dev/input/event* device files are + created. + +Before you start, let me WARN you that some devices shake violently during the +initialisation phase. This happens for example with my "AVB Top Shot Pegasus". +To stop this annoying behaviour, move your joystick to its limits. Anyway, you +should keep a hand on your device, in order to avoid it to break down if +something goes wrong. + +If you have a serial iforce device, you need to start inputattach. See +joydev/joystick.rst for details. + +Does it work ? +-------------- + +There is an utility called fftest that will allow you to test the driver:: + + % fftest /dev/input/eventXX + +Instructions to the developer +~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ + +All interactions are done using the event API. That is, you can use ioctl() +and write() on /dev/input/eventXX. +This information is subject to change. + +Querying device capabilities +---------------------------- + +:: + + #include <linux/input.h> + #include <sys/ioctl.h> + + #define BITS_TO_LONGS(x) \ + (((x) + 8 * sizeof (unsigned long) - 1) / (8 * sizeof (unsigned long))) + unsigned long features[BITS_TO_LONGS(FF_CNT)]; + int ioctl(int file_descriptor, int request, unsigned long *features); + +"request" must be EVIOCGBIT(EV_FF, size of features array in bytes ) + +Returns the features supported by the device. features is a bitfield with the +following bits: + +- FF_CONSTANT can render constant force effects +- FF_PERIODIC can render periodic effects with the following waveforms: + + - FF_SQUARE square waveform + - FF_TRIANGLE triangle waveform + - FF_SINE sine waveform + - FF_SAW_UP sawtooth up waveform + - FF_SAW_DOWN sawtooth down waveform + - FF_CUSTOM custom waveform + +- FF_RAMP can render ramp effects +- FF_SPRING can simulate the presence of a spring +- FF_FRICTION can simulate friction +- FF_DAMPER can simulate damper effects +- FF_RUMBLE rumble effects +- FF_INERTIA can simulate inertia +- FF_GAIN gain is adjustable +- FF_AUTOCENTER autocenter is adjustable + +.. note:: + + - In most cases you should use FF_PERIODIC instead of FF_RUMBLE. All + devices that support FF_RUMBLE support FF_PERIODIC (square, triangle, + sine) and the other way around. + + - The exact syntax FF_CUSTOM is undefined for the time being as no driver + supports it yet. + +:: + + int ioctl(int fd, EVIOCGEFFECTS, int *n); + +Returns the number of effects the device can keep in its memory. + +Uploading effects to the device +------------------------------- + +:: + + #include <linux/input.h> + #include <sys/ioctl.h> + + int ioctl(int file_descriptor, int request, struct ff_effect *effect); + +"request" must be EVIOCSFF. + +"effect" points to a structure describing the effect to upload. The effect is +uploaded, but not played. +The content of effect may be modified. In particular, its field "id" is set +to the unique id assigned by the driver. This data is required for performing +some operations (removing an effect, controlling the playback). +The "id" field must be set to -1 by the user in order to tell the driver to +allocate a new effect. + +Effects are file descriptor specific. + +See <uapi/linux/input.h> for a description of the ff_effect struct. You +should also find help in a few sketches, contained in files shape.svg +and interactive.svg: + +.. kernel-figure:: shape.svg + + Shape + +.. kernel-figure:: interactive.svg + + Interactive + + +Removing an effect from the device +---------------------------------- + +:: + + int ioctl(int fd, EVIOCRMFF, effect.id); + +This makes room for new effects in the device's memory. Note that this also +stops the effect if it was playing. + +Controlling the playback of effects +----------------------------------- + +Control of playing is done with write(). Below is an example: + +:: + + #include <linux/input.h> + #include <unistd.h> + + struct input_event play; + struct input_event stop; + struct ff_effect effect; + int fd; + ... + fd = open("/dev/input/eventXX", O_RDWR); + ... + /* Play three times */ + play.type = EV_FF; + play.code = effect.id; + play.value = 3; + + write(fd, (const void*) &play, sizeof(play)); + ... + /* Stop an effect */ + stop.type = EV_FF; + stop.code = effect.id; + stop.value = 0; + + write(fd, (const void*) &stop, sizeof(stop)); + +Setting the gain +---------------- + +Not all devices have the same strength. Therefore, users should set a gain +factor depending on how strong they want effects to be. This setting is +persistent across access to the driver. + +:: + + /* Set the gain of the device + int gain; /* between 0 and 100 */ + struct input_event ie; /* structure used to communicate with the driver */ + + ie.type = EV_FF; + ie.code = FF_GAIN; + ie.value = 0xFFFFUL * gain / 100; + + if (write(fd, &ie, sizeof(ie)) == -1) + perror("set gain"); + +Enabling/Disabling autocenter +----------------------------- + +The autocenter feature quite disturbs the rendering of effects in my opinion, +and I think it should be an effect, which computation depends on the game +type. But you can enable it if you want. + +:: + + int autocenter; /* between 0 and 100 */ + struct input_event ie; + + ie.type = EV_FF; + ie.code = FF_AUTOCENTER; + ie.value = 0xFFFFUL * autocenter / 100; + + if (write(fd, &ie, sizeof(ie)) == -1) + perror("set auto-center"); + +A value of 0 means "no auto-center". + +Dynamic update of an effect +--------------------------- + +Proceed as if you wanted to upload a new effect, except that instead of +setting the id field to -1, you set it to the wanted effect id. +Normally, the effect is not stopped and restarted. However, depending on the +type of device, not all parameters can be dynamically updated. For example, +the direction of an effect cannot be updated with iforce devices. In this +case, the driver stops the effect, up-load it, and restart it. + +Therefore it is recommended to dynamically change direction while the effect +is playing only when it is ok to restart the effect with a replay count of 1. + +Information about the status of effects +--------------------------------------- + +Every time the status of an effect is changed, an event is sent. The values +and meanings of the fields of the event are as follows:: + + struct input_event { + /* When the status of the effect changed */ + struct timeval time; + + /* Set to EV_FF_STATUS */ + unsigned short type; + + /* Contains the id of the effect */ + unsigned short code; + + /* Indicates the status */ + unsigned int value; + }; + + FF_STATUS_STOPPED The effect stopped playing + FF_STATUS_PLAYING The effect started to play + +.. note:: + + - Status feedback is only supported by iforce driver.

The buttons are + differently labeled on most devices so we define them as NORTH, + SOUTH, WEST and EAST. + - D-Pad (Direction-pad) + 4 buttons (on the left side) that point up, down, left and right. + - Menu-Pad + Different constellations, but most-times 2 buttons: SELECT - START + Furthermore, many gamepads have a fancy branded button that is used as + special system-button. It often looks different to the other buttons and + is used to pop up system-menus or system-settings. + - Analog-Sticks + Analog-sticks provide freely moveable sticks to control directions. Not + all devices have both or any, but they are present at most times. + Analog-sticks may also provide a digital button if you press them. + - Triggers + Triggers are located on the upper-side of the pad in vertical direction. + Not all devices provide them, but the upper buttons are normally named + Left- and Right-Triggers, the lower buttons Z-Left and Z-Right. + - Rumble + Many devices provide force-feedback features. But are mostly just + simple rumble motors. + +Detection +~~~~~~~~~ + +All gamepads that follow the protocol described here map BTN_GAMEPAD. This is +an alias for BTN_SOUTH/BTN_A. It can be used to identify a gamepad as such. +However, not all gamepads provide all features, so you need to test for all +features that you need, first. How each feature is mapped is described below. + +Legacy drivers often don't comply to these rules. As we cannot change them +for backwards-compatibility reasons, you need to provide fixup mappings in +user-space yourself. Some of them might also provide module-options that +change the mappings so you can advise users to set these. + +All new gamepads are supposed to comply with this mapping. Please report any +bugs, if they don't. + +There are a lot of less-featured/less-powerful devices out there, which reuse +the buttons from this protocol. However, they try to do this in a compatible +fashion. For example, the "Nintendo Wii Nunchuk" provides two trigger buttons +and one analog stick. It reports them as if it were a gamepad with only one +analog stick and two trigger buttons on the right side. +But that means, that if you only support "real" gamepads, you must test +devices for _all_ reported events that you need. Otherwise, you will also get +devices that report a small subset of the events. + +No other devices, that do not look/feel like a gamepad, shall report these +events. + +Events +~~~~~~ + +Gamepads report the following events: + +- Action-Pad: + + Every gamepad device has at least 2 action buttons. This means, that every + device reports BTN_SOUTH (which BTN_GAMEPAD is an alias for). Regardless + of the labels on the buttons, the codes are sent according to the + physical position of the buttons. + + Please note that 2- and 3-button pads are fairly rare and old. You might + want to filter gamepads that do not report all four. + + - 2-Button Pad: + + If only 2 action-buttons are present, they are reported as BTN_SOUTH and + BTN_EAST. For vertical layouts, the upper button is BTN_EAST. For + horizontal layouts, the button more on the right is BTN_EAST. + + - 3-Button Pad: + + If only 3 action-buttons are present, they are reported as (from left + to right): BTN_WEST, BTN_SOUTH, BTN_EAST + If the buttons are aligned perfectly vertically, they are reported as + (from top down): BTN_WEST, BTN_SOUTH, BTN_EAST + + - 4-Button Pad: + + If all 4 action-buttons are present, they can be aligned in two + different formations. If diamond-shaped, they are reported as BTN_NORTH, + BTN_WEST, BTN_SOUTH, BTN_EAST according to their physical location. + If rectangular-shaped, the upper-left button is BTN_NORTH, lower-left + is BTN_WEST, lower-right is BTN_SOUTH and upper-right is BTN_EAST. + +- D-Pad: + + Every gamepad provides a D-Pad with four directions: Up, Down, Left, Right + Some of these are available as digital buttons, some as analog buttons. Some + may even report both. The kernel does not convert between these so + applications should support both and choose what is more appropriate if + both are reported. + + - Digital buttons are reported as: + + BTN_DPAD_* + + - Analog buttons are reported as: + + ABS_HAT0X and ABS_HAT0Y + + (for ABS values negative is left/up, positive is right/down) + +- Analog-Sticks: + + The left analog-stick is reported as ABS_X, ABS_Y. The right analog stick is + reported as ABS_RX, ABS_RY. Zero, one or two sticks may be present. + If analog-sticks provide digital buttons, they are mapped accordingly as + BTN_THUMBL (first/left) and BTN_THUMBR (second/right). + + (for ABS values negative is left/up, positive is right/down) + +- Triggers: + + Trigger buttons can be available as digital or analog buttons or both. User- + space must correctly deal with any situation and choose the most appropriate + mode. + + Upper trigger buttons are reported as BTN_TR or ABS_HAT1X (right) and BTN_TL + or ABS_HAT1Y (left). Lower trigger buttons are reported as BTN_TR2 or + ABS_HAT2X (right/ZR) and BTN_TL2 or ABS_HAT2Y (left/ZL). + + If only one trigger-button combination is present (upper+lower), they are + reported as "right" triggers (BTN_TR/ABS_HAT1X). + + (ABS trigger values start at 0, pressure is reported as positive values) + +- Menu-Pad: + + Menu buttons are always digital and are mapped according to their location + instead of their labels. That is: + + - 1-button Pad: + + Mapped as BTN_START + + - 2-button Pad: + + Left button mapped as BTN_SELECT, right button mapped as BTN_START + + Many pads also have a third button which is branded or has a special symbol + and meaning. Such buttons are mapped as BTN_MODE. Examples are the Nintendo + "HOME" button, the Xbox "X" button or the Sony PlayStation "PS" button. + +- Rumble: + + Rumble is advertised as FF_RUMBLE. + +- Grip buttons: + + Many pads include buttons on the rear, usually referred to as either grip or + rear buttons, or paddles. These are often reprogrammable by the firmware to + appear as "normal" buttons, but are sometimes exposed to software too. Some + notable examples of this are the Steam Deck, which has R4, R5, L4, and L5 on + the back; the Xbox Elite pads, which have P1-P4; and the Switch 2 Pro + Controller, which has GL and GR. + + For these controllers, BTN_GRIPR and BTN_GRIPR2 should be used for the top + and bottom (if present) right grip button(s), and BTN_GRIPL and BTN_GRIPL2 + should be used for the top and bottom (if present) left grip button(s). + +- Profile: + + Some pads provide a multi-value profile selection switch. Examples include + the Xbox Adaptive and the Xbox Elite 2 controllers. When the active profile + is switched, its newly selected value is emitted as an ABS_PROFILE event. diff --git a/Documentation/input/gameport-programming.rst b/Documentation/input/gameport-programming.rst new file mode 100644 index 000000000..7d7063ad0 --- /dev/null +++ b/Documentation/input/gameport-programming.rst @@ -0,0 +1,233 @@ +~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ +Programming gameport drivers +~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ + +A basic classic gameport +~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ + +If the gameport doesn't provide more than the inb()/outb() functionality, +the code needed to register it with the joystick drivers is simple:: + + struct gameport gameport; + + gameport.io = MY_IO_ADDRESS; + gameport_register_port(&gameport); + +Make sure struct gameport is initialized to 0 in all other fields.

This provides all the definitions needed. + +In the _init function, which is called either upon module load or when +booting the kernel, it grabs the required resources (it should also check +for the presence of the device). + +Then it allocates a new input device structure with input_allocate_device() +and sets up input bitfields. This way the device driver tells the other +parts of the input systems what it is - what events can be generated or +accepted by this input device. Our example device can only generate EV_KEY +type events, and from those only BTN_0 event code. Thus we only set these +two bits. We could have used:: + + set_bit(EV_KEY, button_dev->evbit); + set_bit(BTN_0, button_dev->keybit); + +as well, but with more than single bits the first approach tends to be +shorter. + +Then the example driver registers the input device structure by calling:: + + input_register_device(button_dev); + +This adds the button_dev structure to linked lists of the input driver and +calls device handler modules _connect functions to tell them a new input +device has appeared. input_register_device() may sleep and therefore must +not be called from an interrupt or with a spinlock held. + +While in use, the only used function of the driver is:: + + button_interrupt() + +which upon every interrupt from the button checks its state and reports it +via the:: + + input_report_key() + +call to the input system. There is no need to check whether the interrupt +routine isn't reporting two same value events (press, press for example) to +the input system, because the input_report_* functions check that +themselves. + +Then there is the:: + + input_sync() + +call to tell those who receive the events that we've sent a complete report. +This doesn't seem important in the one button case, but is quite important +for example for mouse movement, where you don't want the X and Y values +to be interpreted separately, because that'd result in a different movement. + +dev->open() and dev->close() +~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ + +In case the driver has to repeatedly poll the device, because it doesn't +have an interrupt coming from it and the polling is too expensive to be done +all the time, or if the device uses a valuable resource (e.g. interrupt), it +can use the open and close callback to know when it can stop polling or +release the interrupt and when it must resume polling or grab the interrupt +again. To do that, we would add this to our example driver:: + + static int button_open(struct input_dev *dev) + { + if (request_irq(BUTTON_IRQ, button_interrupt, 0, "button", NULL)) { + printk(KERN_ERR "button.c: Can't allocate irq %d\n", button_irq); + return -EBUSY; + } + + return 0; + } + + static void button_close(struct input_dev *dev) + { + free_irq(IRQ_AMIGA_VERTB, button_interrupt); + } + + static int __init button_init(void) + { + ... + button_dev->open = button_open; + button_dev->close = button_close; + ... + } + +Note that input core keeps track of number of users for the device and +makes sure that dev->open() is called only when the first user connects +to the device and that dev->close() is called when the very last user +disconnects. Calls to both callbacks are serialized. + +The open() callback should return a 0 in case of success or any non-zero value +in case of failure. The close() callback (which is void) must always succeed. + +Inhibiting input devices +~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ + +Inhibiting a device means ignoring input events from it. As such it is about +maintaining relationships with input handlers - either already existing +relationships, or relationships to be established while the device is in +inhibited state. + +If a device is inhibited, no input handler will receive events from it. + +The fact that nobody wants events from the device is exploited further, by +calling device's close() (if there are users) and open() (if there are users) on +inhibit and uninhibit operations, respectively. Indeed, the meaning of close() +is to stop providing events to the input core and that of open() is to start +providing events to the input core. + +Calling the device's close() method on inhibit (if there are users) allows the +driver to save power. Either by directly powering down the device or by +releasing the runtime-PM reference it got in open() when the driver is using +runtime-PM. + +Inhibiting and uninhibiting are orthogonal to opening and closing the device by +input handlers. Userspace might want to inhibit a device in anticipation before +any handler is positively matched against it. + +Inhibiting and uninhibiting are orthogonal to device's being a wakeup source, +too. Being a wakeup source plays a role when the system is sleeping, not when +the system is operating. How drivers should program their interaction between +inhibiting, sleeping and being a wakeup source is driver-specific. + +Taking the analogy with the network devices - bringing a network interface down +doesn't mean that it should be impossible be wake the system up on LAN through +this interface. So, there may be input drivers which should be considered wakeup +sources even when inhibited. Actually, in many I2C input devices their interrupt +is declared a wakeup interrupt and its handling happens in driver's core, which +is not aware of input-specific inhibit (nor should it be). Composite devices +containing several interfaces can be inhibited on a per-interface basis and e.g. +inhibiting one interface shouldn't affect the device's capability of being a +wakeup source. + +If a device is to be considered a wakeup source while inhibited, special care +must be taken when programming its suspend(), as it might need to call device's +open(). Depending on what close() means for the device in question, not +opening() it before going to sleep might make it impossible to provide any +wakeup events. The device is going to sleep anyway. + +Basic event types +~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ + +The most simple event type is EV_KEY, which is used for keys and buttons. +It's reported to the input system via:: + + input_report_key(struct input_dev *dev, int code, int value) + +See uapi/linux/input-event-codes.h for the allowable values of code (from 0 to +KEY_MAX). Value is interpreted as a truth value, i.e. any non-zero value means +key pressed, zero value means key released. The input code generates events only +in case the value is different from before. + +In addition to EV_KEY, there are two more basic event types: EV_REL and +EV_ABS. They are used for relative and absolute values supplied by the +device. A relative value may be for example a mouse movement in the X axis. +The mouse reports it as a relative difference from the last position, +because it doesn't have any absolute coordinate system to work in. Absolute +events are namely for joysticks and digitizers - devices that do work in an +absolute coordinate systems. + +Having the device report EV_REL buttons is as simple as with EV_KEY; simply +set the corresponding bits and call the:: + + input_report_rel(struct input_dev *dev, int code, int value) + +function. Events are generated only for non-zero values. + +However EV_ABS requires a little special care. Before calling +input_register_device, you have to fill additional fields in the input_dev +struct for each absolute axis your device has. If our button device had also +the ABS_X axis:: + + button_dev.absmin[ABS_X] = 0; + button_dev.absmax[ABS_X] = 255; + button_dev.absfuzz[ABS_X] = 4; + button_dev.absflat[ABS_X] = 8; + +Or, you can just say:: + + input_set_abs_params(button_dev, ABS_X, 0, 255, 4, 8); + +This setting would be appropriate for a joystick X axis, with the minimum of +0, maximum of 255 (which the joystick *must* be able to reach, no problem if +it sometimes reports more, but it must be able to always reach the min and +max values), with noise in the data up to +- 4, and with a center flat +position of size 8. + +If you don't need absfuzz and absflat, you can set them to zero, which mean +that the thing is precise and always returns to exactly the center position +(if it has any). + +BITS_TO_LONGS(), BIT_WORD(), BIT_MASK() +~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ + +These three macros from bitops.h help some bitfield computations:: + + BITS_TO_LONGS(x) - returns the length of a bitfield array in longs for + x bits + BIT_WORD(x) - returns the index in the array in longs for bit x + BIT_MASK(x) - returns the index in a long for bit x + +The id* and name fields +~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ + +The dev->name should be set before registering the input device by the input +device driver. It's a string like 'Generic button device' containing a +user friendly name of the device. + +The id* fields contain the bus ID (PCI, USB, ...), vendor ID and device ID +of the device. The bus IDs are defined in input.h. The vendor and device IDs +are defined in pci_ids.h, usb_ids.h and similar include files. These fields +should be set by the input device driver before registering it. + +The idtype field can be used for specific information for the input device +driver. + +The id and name fields can be passed to userland via the evdev interface. + +The keycode, keycodemax, keycodesize fields +~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ + +These three fields should be used by input devices that have dense keymaps. +The keycode is an array used to map from scancodes to input system keycodes. +The keycode max should contain the size of the array and keycodesize the +size of each entry in it (in bytes). + +Userspace can query and alter current scancode to keycode mappings using +EVIOCGKEYCODE and EVIOCSKEYCODE ioctls on corresponding evdev interface. +When a device has all 3 aforementioned fields filled in, the driver may +rely on kernel's default implementation of setting and querying keycode +mappings. + +dev->getkeycode() and dev->setkeycode() +~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ + +getkeycode() and setkeycode() callbacks allow drivers to override default +keycode/keycodesize/keycodemax mapping mechanism provided by input core +and implement sparse keycode maps. + +Key autorepeat +~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ + +... is simple. It is handled by the input.c module. Hardware autorepeat is +not used, because it's not present in many devices and even where it is +present, it is broken sometimes (at keyboards: Toshiba notebooks). To enable +autorepeat for your device, just set EV_REP in dev->evbit. All will be +handled by the input system. + +Other event types, handling output events +~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ + +The other event types up to now are: + +- EV_LED - used for the keyboard LEDs. +- EV_SND - used for keyboard beeps. + +They are very similar to for example key events, but they go in the other +direction - from the system to the input device driver. If your input device +driver can handle these events, it has to set the respective bits in evbit, +*and* also the callback routine:: + + button_dev->event = button_event; + + int button_event(struct input_dev *dev, unsigned int type, + unsigned int code, int value) + { + if (type == EV_SND && code == SND_BELL) { + outb(value, BUTTON_BELL); + return 0; + } + return -1; + } + +This callback routine can be called from an interrupt or a BH (although that +isn't a rule), and thus must not sleep, and must not take too long to finish. + +Polled input devices +~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ + +Input polling is set up by passing an input device struct and a callback to +the function:: + + int input_setup_polling(struct input_dev *dev, + void (*poll_fn)(struct input_dev *dev)) + +Within the callback, devices should use the regular input_report_* functions +and input_sync as is used by other devices. + +There is also the function:: + + void input_set_poll_interval(struct input_dev *dev, unsigned int interval) + +which is used to configure the interval, in milliseconds, that the device will +be polled at. diff --git a/Documentation/input/input.rst b/Documentation/input/input.rst new file mode 100644 index 000000000..7bbda39d8 --- /dev/null +++ b/Documentation/input/input.rst @@ -0,0 +1,281 @@ +.. include:: <isonum.txt> + +============ +Introduction +============ + +:Copyright: |copy| 1999-2001 Vojtech Pavlik <vojtech@ucw.cz> - Sponsored by SuSE + +Architecture +============ + +Input subsystem is a collection of drivers that is designed to support +all input devices under Linux.

It +consumes keyboard keystrokes and handles user input for VT consoles. + +mousedev +~~~~~~~~ + +``mousedev`` is a hack to make legacy programs that use mouse input +work. It takes events from either mice or digitizers/tablets and makes +a PS/2-style (a la /dev/psaux) mouse device available to the +userland. + +Mousedev devices in /dev/input (as shown above) are:: + + crw-r--r-- 1 root root 13, 32 Mar 28 22:45 mouse0 + crw-r--r-- 1 root root 13, 33 Mar 29 00:41 mouse1 + crw-r--r-- 1 root root 13, 34 Mar 29 00:41 mouse2 + crw-r--r-- 1 root root 13, 35 Apr 1 10:50 mouse3 + ... + ... + crw-r--r-- 1 root root 13, 62 Apr 1 10:50 mouse30 + crw-r--r-- 1 root root 13, 63 Apr 1 10:50 mice + +Each ``mouse`` device is assigned to a single mouse or digitizer, except +the last one - ``mice``. This single character device is shared by all +mice and digitizers, and even if none are connected, the device is +present. This is useful for hotplugging USB mice, so that older programs +that do not handle hotplug can open the device even when no mice are +present. + +CONFIG_INPUT_MOUSEDEV_SCREEN_[XY] in the kernel configuration are +the size of your screen (in pixels) in XFree86. This is needed if you +want to use your digitizer in X, because its movement is sent to X +via a virtual PS/2 mouse and thus needs to be scaled +accordingly. These values won't be used if you use a mouse only. + +Mousedev will generate either PS/2, ImPS/2 (Microsoft IntelliMouse) or +ExplorerPS/2 (IntelliMouse Explorer) protocols, depending on what the +program reading the data wishes. You can set GPM and X to any of +these. You'll need ImPS/2 if you want to make use of a wheel on a USB +mouse and ExplorerPS/2 if you want to use extra (up to 5) buttons. + +joydev +~~~~~~ + +``joydev`` implements v0.x and v1.x Linux joystick API. See +:ref:`joystick-api` for details. + +As soon as any joystick is connected, it can be accessed in /dev/input on:: + + crw-r--r-- 1 root root 13, 0 Apr 1 10:50 js0 + crw-r--r-- 1 root root 13, 1 Apr 1 10:50 js1 + crw-r--r-- 1 root root 13, 2 Apr 1 10:50 js2 + crw-r--r-- 1 root root 13, 3 Apr 1 10:50 js3 + ... + +And so on up to js31 in legacy range, and additional nodes with minors +above 256 if there are more joystick devices. + +Device drivers +-------------- + +Device drivers are the modules that generate events. + +hid-generic +~~~~~~~~~~~ + +``hid-generic`` is one of the largest and most complex driver of the +whole suite. It handles all HID devices, and because there is a very +wide variety of them, and because the USB HID specification isn't +simple, it needs to be this big. + +Currently, it handles USB mice, joysticks, gamepads, steering wheels, +keyboards, trackballs and digitizers. + +However, USB uses HID also for monitor controls, speaker controls, UPSs, +LCDs and many other purposes. + +The monitor and speaker controls should be easy to add to the hid/input +interface, but for the UPSs and LCDs it doesn't make much sense. For this, +the hiddev interface was designed. See Documentation/hid/hiddev.rst +for more information about it. + +The usage of the usbhid module is very simple, it takes no parameters, +detects everything automatically and when a HID device is inserted, it +detects it appropriately. + +However, because the devices vary wildly, you might happen to have a +device that doesn't work well. In that case #define DEBUG at the beginning +of hid-core.c and send me the syslog traces. + +usbmouse +~~~~~~~~ + +For embedded systems, for mice with broken HID descriptors and just any +other use when the big usbhid wouldn't be a good choice, there is the +usbmouse driver. It handles USB mice only. It uses a simpler HIDBP +protocol. This also means the mice must support this simpler protocol. Not +all do. If you don't have any strong reason to use this module, use usbhid +instead. + +usbkbd +~~~~~~ + +Much like usbmouse, this module talks to keyboards with a simplified +HIDBP protocol. It's smaller, but doesn't support any extra special keys. +Use usbhid instead if there isn't any special reason to use this. + +psmouse +~~~~~~~ + +This is driver for all flavors of pointing devices using PS/2 +protocol, including Synaptics and ALPS touchpads, Intellimouse +Explorer devices, Logitech PS/2 mice and so on. + +atkbd +~~~~~ + +This is driver for PS/2 (AT) keyboards. + +iforce +~~~~~~ + +A driver for I-Force joysticks and wheels, both over USB and RS232. +It includes Force Feedback support now, even though Immersion +Corp. considers the protocol a trade secret and won't disclose a word +about it. + +Verifying if it works +===================== + +Typing a couple keys on the keyboard should be enough to check that +a keyboard works and is correctly connected to the kernel keyboard +driver. + +Doing a ``cat /dev/input/mouse0`` (c, 13, 32) will verify that a mouse +is also emulated; characters should appear if you move it. + +You can test the joystick emulation with the ``jstest`` utility, +available in the joystick package (see :ref:`joystick-doc`). + +You can test the event devices with the ``evtest`` utility. + +.. _event-interface: + +Event interface +=============== + +You can use blocking and nonblocking reads, and also select() on the +/dev/input/eventX devices, and you'll always get a whole number of input +events on a read. Their layout is:: + + struct input_event { + struct timeval time; + unsigned short type; + unsigned short code; + int value; + }; + +``time`` is the timestamp, it returns the time at which the event happened. +Type is for example EV_REL for relative movement, EV_KEY for a keypress or +release. More types are defined in include/uapi/linux/input-event-codes.h. + +``code`` is event code, for example REL_X or KEY_BACKSPACE, again a complete +list is in include/uapi/linux/input-event-codes.h. + +``value`` is the value the event carries. Either a relative change for +EV_REL, absolute new value for EV_ABS (joysticks ...), or 0 for EV_KEY for +release, 1 for keypress and 2 for autorepeat. + +See :ref:`input-event-codes` for more information about various event codes. diff --git a/Documentation/input/input_kapi.rst b/Documentation/input/input_kapi.rst new file mode 100644 index 000000000..9937522da --- /dev/null +++

+===================== +Programming Interface +===================== + +:Author: Ragnar Hojland Espinosa <ragnar@macula.net> - 7 Aug 1998 + +Introduction +============ + +.. important:: + This document describes legacy ``js`` interface. Newer clients are + encouraged to switch to the generic event (``evdev``) interface. + +The 1.0 driver uses a new, event based approach to the joystick driver. +Instead of the user program polling for the joystick values, the joystick +driver now reports only any changes of its state. See joystick-api.txt, +joystick.h and jstest.c included in the joystick package for more +information. The joystick device can be used in either blocking or +nonblocking mode, and supports select() calls. + +For backward compatibility the old (v0.x) interface is still included. +Any call to the joystick driver using the old interface will return values +that are compatible to the old interface. This interface is still limited +to 2 axes, and applications using it usually decode only 2 buttons, although +the driver provides up to 32. + +Initialization +============== + +Open the joystick device following the usual semantics (that is, with open). +Since the driver now reports events instead of polling for changes, +immediately after the open it will issue a series of synthetic events +(JS_EVENT_INIT) that you can read to obtain the initial state of the +joystick. + +By default, the device is opened in blocking mode:: + + int fd = open ("/dev/input/js0", O_RDONLY); + + +Event Reading +============= + +:: + + struct js_event e; + read (fd, &e, sizeof(e)); + +where js_event is defined as:: + + struct js_event { + __u32 time; /* event timestamp in milliseconds */ + __s16 value; /* value */ + __u8 type; /* event type */ + __u8 number; /* axis/button number */ + }; + +If the read is successful, it will return sizeof(e), unless you wanted to read +more than one event per read as described in section 3.1. + + +js_event.type +------------- + +The possible values of ``type`` are:: + + #define JS_EVENT_BUTTON 0x01 /* button pressed/released */ + #define JS_EVENT_AXIS 0x02 /* joystick moved */ + #define JS_EVENT_INIT 0x80 /* initial state of device */ + +As mentioned above, the driver will issue synthetic JS_EVENT_INIT ORed +events on open. That is, if it's issuing an INIT BUTTON event, the +current type value will be:: + + int type = JS_EVENT_BUTTON | JS_EVENT_INIT; /* 0x81 */ + +If you choose not to differentiate between synthetic or real events +you can turn off the JS_EVENT_INIT bits:: + + type &= ~JS_EVENT_INIT; /* 0x01 */ + + +js_event.number +--------------- + +The values of ``number`` correspond to the axis or button that +generated the event. Note that they carry separate numeration (that +is, you have both an axis 0 and a button 0). Generally, + + =============== ======= + Axis number + =============== ======= + 1st Axis X 0 + 1st Axis Y 1 + 2nd Axis X 2 + 2nd Axis Y 3 + ...and so on + =============== ======= + +Hats vary from one joystick type to another. Some can be moved in 8 +directions, some only in 4. The driver, however, always reports a hat as two +independent axes, even if the hardware doesn't allow independent movement. + + +js_event.value +-------------- + +For an axis, ``value`` is a signed integer between -32767 and +32767 +representing the position of the joystick along that axis. If you +don't read a 0 when the joystick is ``dead``, or if it doesn't span the +full range, you should recalibrate it (with, for example, jscal). + +For a button, ``value`` for a press button event is 1 and for a release +button event is 0. + +Though this:: + + if (js_event.type == JS_EVENT_BUTTON) { + buttons_state ^= (1 << js_event.number); + } + +may work well if you handle JS_EVENT_INIT events separately, + +:: + + if ((js_event.type & ~JS_EVENT_INIT) == JS_EVENT_BUTTON) { + if (js_event.value) + buttons_state |= (1 << js_event.number); + else + buttons_state &= ~(1 << js_event.number); + } + +is much safer since it can't lose sync with the driver. As you would +have to write a separate handler for JS_EVENT_INIT events in the first +snippet, this ends up being shorter. + + +js_event.time +------------- + +The time an event was generated is stored in ``js_event.time``. It's a time +in milliseconds since ... well, since sometime in the past. This eases the +task of detecting double clicks, figuring out if movement of axis and button +presses happened at the same time, and similar. + + +Reading +======= + +If you open the device in blocking mode, a read will block (that is, +wait) forever until an event is generated and effectively read. There +are two alternatives if you can't afford to wait forever (which is, +admittedly, a long time;) + + a) use select to wait until there's data to be read on fd, or + until it timeouts. There's a good example on the select(2) + man page. + + b) open the device in non-blocking mode (O_NONBLOCK) + + +O_NONBLOCK +---------- + +If read returns -1 when reading in O_NONBLOCK mode, this isn't +necessarily a "real" error (check errno(3)); it can just mean there +are no events pending to be read on the driver queue. You should read +all events on the queue (that is, until you get a -1). + +For example, + +:: + + while (1) { + while (read (fd, &e, sizeof(e)) > 0) { + process_event (e); + } + /* EAGAIN is returned when the queue is empty */ + if (errno != EAGAIN) { + /* error */ + } + /* do something interesting with processed events */ + } + +One reason for emptying the queue is that if it gets full you'll start +missing events since the queue is finite, and older events will get +overwritten. + +The other reason is that you want to know all that happened, and not +delay the processing till later. + +Why can the queue get full? Because you don't empty the queue as +mentioned, or because too much time elapses from one read to another +and too many events to store in the queue get generated. Note that +high system load may contribute to space those reads even more. + +If time between reads is enough to fill the queue and lose an event, +the driver will switch to startup mode and next time you read it, +synthetic events (JS_EVENT_INIT) will be generated to inform you of +the actual state of the joystick. + + +.. note:: + + As of version 1.2.8, the queue is circular and able to hold 64 + events. You can increment this size bumping up JS_BUFF_SIZE in + joystick.h and recompiling the driver. + + +In the above code, you might as well want to read more than one event +at a time using the typical read(2) functionality. For that, you would +replace the read above with something like:: + + struct js_event mybuffer[0xff]; + int i = read (fd, mybuffer, sizeof(mybuffer)); + +In this case, read would return -1 if the queue was empty, or some +other value in which the number of events read would be i / +sizeof(js_event) Again, if the buffer was full, it's a good idea to +process the events and keep reading it until you empty the driver queue. + + +IOCTLs +====== + +The joystick driver defines the following ioctl(2) operations:: + + /* function 3rd arg */ + #define JSIOCGAXES /* get number of axes char */ + #define JSIOCGBUTTONS /* get number of buttons char */ + #define JSIOCGVERSION /* get driver version int */ + #define JSIOCGNAME(len) /* get identifier string char */ + #define JSIOCSCORR /* set correction values &js_corr */ + #define JSIOCGCORR /* get correction values &js_corr */ + +For example, to read the number of axes:: + + char number_of_axes; + ioctl (fd, JSIOCGAXES, &number_of_axes); + + +JSIOGCVERSION +------------- + +JSIOGCVERSION is a good way to check in run-time whether the running +driver is 1.0+ and supports the event interface. If it is not, the +IOCTL will fail. For a compile-time decision, you can test the +JS_VERSION symbol:: + + #ifdef JS_VERSION + #if JS_VERSION > 0xsomething + + +JSIOCGNAME +---------- + +JSIOCGNAME(len) allows you to get the name string of the joystick - the same +as is being printed at boot time. The 'len' argument is the length of the +buffer provided by the application asking for the name. It is used to avoid +possible overrun should the name be too long:: + + char name[128]; + if (ioctl(fd, JSIOCGNAME(sizeof(name)), name) < 0) + strscpy(name, "Unknown", sizeof(name)); + printf("Name: %s\n", name); + + +JSIOC[SG]CORR +------------- + +For usage on JSIOC[SG]CORR I suggest you to look into jscal.c They are +not needed in a normal program, only in joystick calibration software +such as jscal or kcmjoy. These IOCTLs and data types aren't considered +to be in the stable part of the API, and therefore may change without +warning in following releases of the driver. + +Both JSIOCSCORR and JSIOCGCORR expect &js_corr to be able to hold +information for all axes. That is, struct js_corr corr[MAX_AXIS]; + +struct js_corr is defined as:: + + struct js_corr { + __s32 coef[8]; + __u16 prec; + __u16 type; + }; + +and ``type``:: + + #define JS_CORR_NONE 0x00 /* returns raw values */ + #define JS_CORR_BROKEN 0x01 /* broken line */ + + +Backward compatibility +====================== + +The 0.x joystick driver API is quite limited and its usage is deprecated. +The driver offers backward compatibility, though. Here's a quick summary:: + + struct JS_DATA_TYPE js; + while (1) { + if (read (fd, &js, JS_RETURN) != JS_RETURN) { + /* error */ + } + usleep (1000); + } + +As you can figure out from the example, the read returns immediately, +with the actual state of the joystick:: + + struct JS_DATA_TYPE { + int buttons; /* immediate button state */ + int x; /* immediate x axis value */ + int y; /* immediate y axis value */ + }; + +and JS_RETURN is defined as:: + + #define JS_RETURN sizeof(struct JS_DATA_TYPE) + +To test the state of the buttons, + +:: + + first_button_state = js.buttons & 1; + second_button_state = js.buttons & 2; + +The axis values do not have a defined range in the original 0.x driver, +except that the values are non-negative. The 1.2.8+ drivers use a +fixed range for reporting the values, 1 being the minimum, 128 the +center, and 255 maximum value. + +The v0.8.0.2 driver also had an interface for 'digital joysticks', (now +called Multisystem joysticks in this driver), under /dev/djsX. This driver +doesn't try to be compatible with that interface. + + +Final Notes +=========== + +:: + + ____/| Comments, additions, and specially corrections are welcome. + \ o.O| Documentation valid for at least version 1.2.8 of the joystick + =(_)= driver and as usual, the ultimate source for documentation is + U to "Use The Source Luke" or, at your convenience, Vojtech ;) diff --git a/Documentation/input/joydev/joystick.rst b/Documentation/input/joydev/joystick.rst new file mode 100644 index 000000000..6d7213967 --- /dev/null +++ b/Documentation/input/joydev/joystick.rst @@ -0,0 +1,586 @@ +.. include:: <isonum.txt> + +.. _joystick-doc: + +Introduction +============ + +The joystick driver for Linux provides support for a variety of joysticks +and similar devices.

You run it by typing:: + + jstest /dev/input/js0 + +And it should show a line with the joystick values, which update as you +move the stick, and press its buttons. The axes should all be zero when the +joystick is in the center position. They should not jitter by themselves to +other close values, and they also should be steady in any other position of +the stick. They should have the full range from -32767 to 32767. If all this +is met, then it's all fine, and you can play the games. :) + +If it's not, then there might be a problem. Try to calibrate the joystick, +and if it still doesn't work, read the drivers section of this file, the +troubleshooting section, and the FAQ. + +Calibration +----------- + +For most joysticks you won't need any manual calibration, since the +joystick should be autocalibrated by the driver automagically. However, with +some analog joysticks, that either do not use linear resistors, or if you +want better precision, you can use the jscal program:: + + jscal -c /dev/input/js0 + +included in the joystick package to set better correction coefficients than +what the driver would choose itself. + +After calibrating the joystick you can verify if you like the new +calibration using the jstest command, and if you do, you then can save the +correction coefficients into a file:: + + jscal -p /dev/input/js0 > /etc/joystick.cal + +And add a line to your rc script executing that file:: + + source /etc/joystick.cal + +This way, after the next reboot your joystick will remain calibrated. You +can also add the ``jscal -p`` line to your shutdown script. + +Hardware-specific driver information +==================================== + +In this section each of the separate hardware specific drivers is described. + +Analog joysticks +---------------- + +The analog.c driver uses the standard analog inputs of the gameport, and thus +supports all standard joysticks and gamepads. It uses a very advanced +routine for this, allowing for data precision that can't be found on any +other system. + +It also supports extensions like additional hats and buttons compatible +with CH Flightstick Pro, ThrustMaster FCS or 6 and 8 button gamepads. Saitek +Cyborg 'digital' joysticks are also supported by this driver, because +they're basically souped up CHF sticks. + +However the only types that can be autodetected are: + +* 2-axis, 4-button joystick +* 3-axis, 4-button joystick +* 4-axis, 4-button joystick +* Saitek Cyborg 'digital' joysticks + +For other joystick types (more/less axes, hats, and buttons) support +you'll need to specify the types either on the kernel command line or on the +module command line, when inserting analog into the kernel. The +parameters are:: + + analog.map=<type1>,<type2>,<type3>,.... + +'type' is type of the joystick from the table below, defining joysticks +present on gameports in the system, starting with gameport0, second 'type' +entry defining joystick on gameport1 and so on. + + ========= ===================================================== + Type Meaning + ========= ===================================================== + none No analog joystick on that port + auto Autodetect joystick + 2btn 2-button n-axis joystick + y-joy Two 2-button 2-axis joysticks on an Y-cable + y-pad Two 2-button 2-axis gamepads on an Y-cable + fcs Thrustmaster FCS compatible joystick + chf Joystick with a CH Flightstick compatible hat + fullchf CH Flightstick compatible with two hats and 6 buttons + gamepad 4/6-button n-axis gamepad + gamepad8 8-button 2-axis gamepad + ========= ===================================================== + +In case your joystick doesn't fit in any of the above categories, you can +specify the type as a number by combining the bits in the table below.

All currently supported joysticks: + +* Microsoft SideWinder 3D Pro +* Microsoft SideWinder Force Feedback Pro +* Microsoft SideWinder Force Feedback Wheel +* Microsoft SideWinder FreeStyle Pro +* Microsoft SideWinder GamePad (up to four, chained) +* Microsoft SideWinder Precision Pro +* Microsoft SideWinder Precision Pro USB + +are autodetected, and thus no module parameters are needed. + +There is one caveat with the 3D Pro. There are 9 buttons reported, +although the joystick has only 8. The 9th button is the mode switch on the +rear side of the joystick. However, moving it, you'll reset the joystick, +and make it unresponsive for about a one third of a second. Furthermore, the +joystick will also re-center itself, taking the position it was in during +this time as a new center position. Use it if you want, but think first. + +The SideWinder Standard is not a digital joystick, and thus is supported +by the analog driver described above. + +Logitech ADI devices +-------------------- + +Logitech ADI protocol is supported by the adi.c module. It should support +any Logitech device using this protocol. This includes, but is not limited +to: + +* Logitech CyberMan 2 +* Logitech ThunderPad Digital +* Logitech WingMan Extreme Digital +* Logitech WingMan Formula +* Logitech WingMan Interceptor +* Logitech WingMan GamePad +* Logitech WingMan GamePad USB +* Logitech WingMan GamePad Extreme +* Logitech WingMan Extreme Digital 3D + +ADI devices are autodetected, and the driver supports up to two (any +combination of) devices on a single gameport, using a Y-cable or chained +together. + +Logitech WingMan Joystick, Logitech WingMan Attack, Logitech WingMan +Extreme and Logitech WingMan ThunderPad are not digital joysticks and are +handled by the analog driver described above. Logitech WingMan Warrior and +Logitech Magellan are supported by serial drivers described below. Logitech +WingMan Force and Logitech WingMan Formula Force are supported by the +I-Force driver described below. Logitech CyberMan is not supported yet. + +Gravis GrIP +----------- + +Gravis GrIP protocol is supported by the grip.c module. It currently +supports: + +* Gravis GamePad Pro +* Gravis BlackHawk Digital +* Gravis Xterminator +* Gravis Xterminator DualControl + +All these devices are autodetected, and you can even use any combination +of up to two of these pads either chained together or using a Y-cable on a +single gameport. + +GrIP MultiPort isn't supported yet. Gravis Stinger is a serial device and is +supported by the stinger driver. Other Gravis joysticks are supported by the +analog driver. + +FPGaming A3D and MadCatz A3D +---------------------------- + +The Assassin 3D protocol created by FPGaming, is used both by FPGaming +themselves and is licensed to MadCatz. A3D devices are supported by the +a3d.c module. It currently supports: + +* FPGaming Assassin 3D +* MadCatz Panther +* MadCatz Panther XL + +All these devices are autodetected. Because the Assassin 3D and the Panther +allow connecting analog joysticks to them, you'll need to load the analog +driver as well to handle the attached joysticks. + +The trackball should work with USB mousedev module as a normal mouse. See +the USB documentation for how to setup a USB mouse. + +ThrustMaster DirectConnect (BSP) +-------------------------------- + +The TM DirectConnect (BSP) protocol is supported by the tmdc.c +module. This includes, but is not limited to: + +* ThrustMaster Millennium 3D Interceptor +* ThrustMaster 3D Rage Pad +* ThrustMaster Fusion Digital Game Pad + +Devices not directly supported, but hopefully working are: + +* ThrustMaster FragMaster +* ThrustMaster Attack Throttle + +If you have one of these, contact me. + +TMDC devices are autodetected, and thus no parameters to the module +are needed. Up to two TMDC devices can be connected to one gameport, using +a Y-cable. + +Creative Labs Blaster +--------------------- + +The Blaster protocol is supported by the cobra.c module. It supports only +the: + +* Creative Blaster GamePad Cobra + +Up to two of these can be used on a single gameport, using a Y-cable. + +Genius Digital joysticks +------------------------ + +The Genius digitally communicating joysticks are supported by the gf2k.c +module. This includes: + +* Genius Flight2000 F-23 joystick +* Genius Flight2000 F-31 joystick +* Genius G-09D gamepad + +Other Genius digital joysticks are not supported yet, but support can be +added fairly easily. + +InterAct Digital joysticks +-------------------------- + +The InterAct digitally communicating joysticks are supported by the +interact.c module. This includes: + +* InterAct HammerHead/FX gamepad +* InterAct ProPad8 gamepad + +Other InterAct digital joysticks are not supported yet, but support can be +added fairly easily. + +PDPI Lightning 4 gamecards +-------------------------- + +PDPI Lightning 4 gamecards are supported by the lightning.c module. +Once the module is loaded, the analog driver can be used to handle the +joysticks. Digitally communicating joystick will work only on port 0, while +using Y-cables, you can connect up to 8 analog joysticks to a single L4 +card, 16 in case you have two in your system. + +Trident 4DWave / Aureal Vortex +------------------------------ + +Soundcards with a Trident 4DWave DX/NX or Aureal Vortex/Vortex2 chipset +provide an "Enhanced Game Port" mode where the soundcard handles polling the +joystick. This mode is supported by the pcigame.c module. Once loaded the +analog driver can use the enhanced features of these gameports.. + +Crystal SoundFusion +------------------- + +Soundcards with Crystal SoundFusion chipsets provide an "Enhanced Game +Port", much like the 4DWave or Vortex above. This, and also the normal mode +for the port of the SoundFusion is supported by the cs461x.c module. + +SoundBlaster Live! +------------------ + +The Live! has a special PCI gameport, which, although it doesn't provide +any "Enhanced" stuff like 4DWave and friends, is quite a bit faster than +its ISA counterparts. It also requires special support, hence the +emu10k1-gp.c module for it instead of the normal ns558.c one. + +SoundBlaster 64 and 128 - ES1370 and ES1371, ESS Solo1 and S3 SonicVibes +------------------------------------------------------------------------ + +These PCI soundcards have specific gameports. They are handled by the +sound drivers themselves. Make sure you select gameport support in the +joystick menu and sound card support in the sound menu for your appropriate +card. + +Amiga +----- + +Amiga joysticks, connected to an Amiga, are supported by the amijoy.c +driver. Since they can't be autodetected, the driver has a command line: + + amijoy.map=<a>,<b> + +a and b define the joysticks connected to the JOY0DAT and JOY1DAT ports of +the Amiga. + + ====== =========================== + Value Joystick type + ====== =========================== + 0 None + 1 1-button digital joystick + ====== =========================== + +No more joystick types are supported now, but that should change in the +future if I get an Amiga in the reach of my fingers. + +Game console and 8-bit pads and joysticks +----------------------------------------- + +These pads and joysticks are not designed for PCs and other computers +Linux runs on, and usually require a special connector for attaching +them through a parallel port. + +See :ref:`joystick-parport` for more info. + +SpaceTec/LabTec devices +----------------------- + +SpaceTec serial devices communicate using the SpaceWare protocol. It is +supported by the spaceorb.c and spaceball.c drivers. The devices currently +supported by spaceorb.c are: + +* SpaceTec SpaceBall Avenger +* SpaceTec SpaceOrb 360 + +Devices currently supported by spaceball.c are: + +* SpaceTec SpaceBall 4000 FLX + +In addition to having the spaceorb/spaceball and serport modules in the +kernel, you also need to attach a serial port to it. To do that, run the +inputattach program:: + + inputattach --spaceorb /dev/tts/x & + +or:: + + inputattach --spaceball /dev/tts/x & + +where /dev/tts/x is the serial port which the device is connected to.

This +document describes the multi-touch (MT) protocol which allows kernel +drivers to report details for an arbitrary number of contacts. + +The protocol is divided into two types, depending on the capabilities of the +hardware. For devices handling anonymous contacts (type A), the protocol +describes how to send the raw data for all contacts to the receiver. For +devices capable of tracking identifiable contacts (type B), the protocol +describes how to send updates for individual contacts via event slots. + +.. note:: + MT protocol type A is obsolete, all kernel drivers have been + converted to use type B. + +Protocol Usage +-------------- + +Contact details are sent sequentially as separate packets of ABS_MT +events. Only the ABS_MT events are recognized as part of a contact +packet. Since these events are ignored by current single-touch (ST) +applications, the MT protocol can be implemented on top of the ST protocol +in an existing driver. + +Drivers for type A devices separate contact packets by calling +input_mt_sync() at the end of each packet. This generates a SYN_MT_REPORT +event, which instructs the receiver to accept the data for the current +contact and prepare to receive another. + +Drivers for type B devices separate contact packets by calling +input_mt_slot(), with a slot as argument, at the beginning of each packet. +This generates an ABS_MT_SLOT event, which instructs the receiver to +prepare for updates of the given slot. + +All drivers mark the end of a multi-touch transfer by calling the usual +input_sync() function. This instructs the receiver to act upon events +accumulated since last EV_SYN/SYN_REPORT and prepare to receive a new set +of events/packets. + +The main difference between the stateless type A protocol and the stateful +type B slot protocol lies in the usage of identifiable contacts to reduce +the amount of data sent to userspace. The slot protocol requires the use of +the ABS_MT_TRACKING_ID, either provided by the hardware or computed from +the raw data [#f5]_. + +For type A devices, the kernel driver should generate an arbitrary +enumeration of the full set of anonymous contacts currently on the +surface. The order in which the packets appear in the event stream is not +important. Event filtering and finger tracking is left to user space [#f3]_. + +For type B devices, the kernel driver should associate a slot with each +identified contact, and use that slot to propagate changes for the contact. +Creation, replacement and destruction of contacts is achieved by modifying +the ABS_MT_TRACKING_ID of the associated slot. A non-negative tracking id +is interpreted as a contact, and the value -1 denotes an unused slot. A +tracking id not previously present is considered new, and a tracking id no +longer present is considered removed. Since only changes are propagated, +the full state of each initiated contact has to reside in the receiving +end. Upon receiving an MT event, one simply updates the appropriate +attribute of the current slot. + +Some devices identify and/or track more contacts than they can report to the +driver. A driver for such a device should associate one type B slot with each +contact that is reported by the hardware. Whenever the identity of the +contact associated with a slot changes, the driver should invalidate that +slot by changing its ABS_MT_TRACKING_ID. If the hardware signals that it is +tracking more contacts than it is currently reporting, the driver should use +a BTN_TOOL_*TAP event to inform userspace of the total number of contacts +being tracked by the hardware at that moment. The driver should do this by +explicitly sending the corresponding BTN_TOOL_*TAP event and setting +use_count to false when calling input_mt_report_pointer_emulation(). +The driver should only advertise as many slots as the hardware can report. +Userspace can detect that a driver can report more total contacts than slots +by noting that the largest supported BTN_TOOL_*TAP event is larger than the +total number of type B slots reported in the absinfo for the ABS_MT_SLOT axis. + +The minimum value of the ABS_MT_SLOT axis must be 0. + +Protocol Example A +------------------ + +Here is what a minimal event sequence for a two-contact touch would look +like for a type A device:: + + ABS_MT_POSITION_X x[0] + ABS_MT_POSITION_Y y[0] + SYN_MT_REPORT + ABS_MT_POSITION_X x[1] + ABS_MT_POSITION_Y y[1] + SYN_MT_REPORT + SYN_REPORT + +The sequence after moving one of the contacts looks exactly the same; the +raw data for all present contacts are sent between every synchronization +with SYN_REPORT. + +Here is the sequence after lifting the first contact:: + + ABS_MT_POSITION_X x[1] + ABS_MT_POSITION_Y y[1] + SYN_MT_REPORT + SYN_REPORT + +And here is the sequence after lifting the second contact:: + + SYN_MT_REPORT + SYN_REPORT + +If the driver reports one of BTN_TOUCH or ABS_PRESSURE in addition to the +ABS_MT events, the last SYN_MT_REPORT event may be omitted. Otherwise, the +last SYN_REPORT will be dropped by the input core, resulting in no +zero-contact event reaching userland. + + +Protocol Example B +------------------ + +Here is what a minimal event sequence for a two-contact touch would look +like for a type B device:: + + ABS_MT_SLOT 0 + ABS_MT_TRACKING_ID 45 + ABS_MT_POSITION_X x[0] + ABS_MT_POSITION_Y y[0] + ABS_MT_SLOT 1 + ABS_MT_TRACKING_ID 46 + ABS_MT_POSITION_X x[1] + ABS_MT_POSITION_Y y[1] + SYN_REPORT + +Here is the sequence after moving contact 45 in the x direction:: + + ABS_MT_SLOT 0 + ABS_MT_POSITION_X x[0] + SYN_REPORT + +Here is the sequence after lifting the contact in slot 0:: + + ABS_MT_TRACKING_ID -1 + SYN_REPORT + +The slot being modified is already 0, so the ABS_MT_SLOT is omitted. The +message removes the association of slot 0 with contact 45, thereby +destroying contact 45 and freeing slot 0 to be reused for another contact. + +Finally, here is the sequence after lifting the second contact:: + + ABS_MT_SLOT 1 + ABS_MT_TRACKING_ID -1 + SYN_REPORT + + +Event Usage +----------- + +A set of ABS_MT events with the desired properties is defined. The events +are divided into categories, to allow for partial implementation. The +minimum set consists of ABS_MT_POSITION_X and ABS_MT_POSITION_Y, which +allows for multiple contacts to be tracked. If the device supports it, the +ABS_MT_TOUCH_MAJOR and ABS_MT_WIDTH_MAJOR may be used to provide the size +of the contact area and approaching tool, respectively. + +The TOUCH and WIDTH parameters have a geometrical interpretation; imagine +looking through a window at someone gently holding a finger against the +glass. You will see two regions, one inner region consisting of the part +of the finger actually touching the glass, and one outer region formed by +the perimeter of the finger. The center of the touching region (a) is +ABS_MT_POSITION_X/Y and the center of the approaching finger (b) is +ABS_MT_TOOL_X/Y. The touch diameter is ABS_MT_TOUCH_MAJOR and the finger +diameter is ABS_MT_WIDTH_MAJOR. Now imagine the person pressing the finger +harder against the glass. The touch region will increase, and in general, +the ratio ABS_MT_TOUCH_MAJOR / ABS_MT_WIDTH_MAJOR, which is always smaller +than unity, is related to the contact pressure. For pressure-based devices, +ABS_MT_PRESSURE may be used to provide the pressure on the contact area +instead. Devices capable of contact hovering can use ABS_MT_DISTANCE to +indicate the distance between the contact and the surface. + +:: + + + Linux MT Win8 + __________ _______________________ + / \ | | + / \ | | + / ____ \ | | + / / \ \ | | + \ \ a \ \ | a | + \ \____/ \ | | + \ \ | | + \ b \ | b | + \ \ | | + \ \ | | + \ \ | | + \ / | | + \ / | | + \ / | | + \__________/ |_______________________| + + +In addition to the MAJOR parameters, the oval shape of the touch and finger +regions can be described by adding the MINOR parameters, such that MAJOR +and MINOR are the major and minor axis of an ellipse. The orientation of +the touch ellipse can be described with the ORIENTATION parameter, and the +direction of the finger ellipse is given by the vector (a - b). + +For type A devices, further specification of the touch shape is possible +via ABS_MT_BLOB_ID. + +The ABS_MT_TOOL_TYPE may be used to specify whether the touching tool is a +finger or a pen or something else. Finally, the ABS_MT_TRACKING_ID event +may be used to track identified contacts over time [#f5]_. + +In the type B protocol, ABS_MT_TOOL_TYPE and ABS_MT_TRACKING_ID are +implicitly handled by input core; drivers should instead call +input_mt_report_slot_state(). + + +Event Semantics +--------------- + +ABS_MT_TOUCH_MAJOR + The length of the major axis of the contact. The length should be given in + surface units. If the surface has an X times Y resolution, the largest + possible value of ABS_MT_TOUCH_MAJOR is sqrt(X^2 + Y^2), the diagonal [#f4]_. + +ABS_MT_TOUCH_MINOR + The length, in surface units, of the minor axis of the contact. If the + contact is circular, this event can be omitted [#f4]_. + +ABS_MT_WIDTH_MAJOR + The length, in surface units, of the major axis of the approaching + tool. This should be understood as the size of the tool itself. The + orientation of the contact and the approaching tool are assumed to be the + same [#f4]_. + +ABS_MT_WIDTH_MINOR + The length, in surface units, of the minor axis of the approaching + tool. Omit if circular [#f4]_. + + The above four values can be used to derive additional information about + the contact. The ratio ABS_MT_TOUCH_MAJOR / ABS_MT_WIDTH_MAJOR approximates + the notion of pressure. The fingers of the hand and the palm all have + different characteristic widths. + +ABS_MT_PRESSURE + The pressure, in arbitrary units, on the contact area. May be used instead + of TOUCH and WIDTH for pressure-based devices or any device with a spatial + signal intensity distribution. + + If the resolution is zero, the pressure data is in arbitrary units. + If the resolution is non-zero, the pressure data is in units/gram. See + :ref:`input-event-codes` for details. + +ABS_MT_DISTANCE + The distance, in surface units, between the contact and the surface. Zero + distance means the contact is touching the surface. A positive number means + the contact is hovering above the surface. + +ABS_MT_ORIENTATION + The orientation of the touching ellipse. The value should describe a signed + quarter of a revolution clockwise around the touch center. The signed value + range is arbitrary, but zero should be returned for an ellipse aligned with + the Y axis (north) of the surface, a negative value when the ellipse is + turned to the left, and a positive value when the ellipse is turned to the + right. When aligned with the X axis in the positive direction, the range + max should be returned; when aligned with the X axis in the negative + direction, the range -max should be returned. + + Touch ellipses are symmetrical by default. For devices capable of true 360 + degree orientation, the reported orientation must exceed the range max to + indicate more than a quarter of a revolution. For an upside-down finger, + range max * 2 should be returned. + + Orientation can be omitted if the touch area is circular, or if the + information is not available in the kernel driver. Partial orientation + support is possible if the device can distinguish between the two axes, but + not (uniquely) any values in between. In such cases, the range of + ABS_MT_ORIENTATION should be [0, 1] [#f4]_. + +ABS_MT_POSITION_X + The surface X coordinate of the center of the touching ellipse. + +ABS_MT_POSITION_Y + The surface Y coordinate of the center of the touching ellipse. + +ABS_MT_TOOL_X + The surface X coordinate of the center of the approaching tool. Omit if + the device cannot distinguish between the intended touch point and the + tool itself. + +ABS_MT_TOOL_Y + The surface Y coordinate of the center of the approaching tool. Omit if the + device cannot distinguish between the intended touch point and the tool + itself. + + The four position values can be used to separate the position of the touch + from the position of the tool. If both positions are present, the major + tool axis points towards the touch point [#f1]_. Otherwise, the tool axes are + aligned with the touch axes. + +ABS_MT_TOOL_TYPE + The type of approaching tool. A lot of kernel drivers cannot distinguish + between different tool types, such as a finger or a pen. In such cases, the + event should be omitted. The protocol currently mainly supports + MT_TOOL_FINGER, MT_TOOL_PEN, and MT_TOOL_PALM [#f2]_. + For type B devices, this event is handled by input core; drivers should + instead use input_mt_report_slot_state(). A contact's ABS_MT_TOOL_TYPE may + change over time while still touching the device, because the firmware may + not be able to determine which tool is being used when it first appears. + +ABS_MT_BLOB_ID + The BLOB_ID groups several packets together into one arbitrarily shaped + contact. The sequence of points forms a polygon which defines the shape of + the contact. This is a low-level anonymous grouping for type A devices, and + should not be confused with the high-level trackingID [#f5]_. Most type A + devices do not have blob capability, so drivers can safely omit this event. + +ABS_MT_TRACKING_ID + The TRACKING_ID identifies an initiated contact throughout its life cycle + [#f5]_. The value range of the TRACKING_ID should be large enough to ensure + unique identification of a contact maintained over an extended period of + time. For type B devices, this event is handled by input core; drivers + should instead use input_mt_report_slot_state(). + + +Event Computation +----------------- + +The flora of different hardware unavoidably leads to some devices fitting +better to the MT protocol than others. To simplify and unify the mapping, +this section gives recipes for how to compute certain events. + +For devices reporting contacts as rectangular shapes, signed orientation +cannot be obtained. Assuming X and Y are the lengths of the sides of the +touching rectangle, here is a simple formula that retains the most +information possible:: + + ABS_MT_TOUCH_MAJOR := max(X, Y) + ABS_MT_TOUCH_MINOR := min(X, Y) + ABS_MT_ORIENTATION := bool(X > Y) + +The range of ABS_MT_ORIENTATION should be set to [0, 1], to indicate that +the device can distinguish between a finger along the Y axis (0) and a +finger along the X axis (1). + +For Win8 devices with both T and C coordinates, the position mapping is:: + + ABS_MT_POSITION_X := T_X + ABS_MT_POSITION_Y := T_Y + ABS_MT_TOOL_X := C_X + ABS_MT_TOOL_Y := C_Y + +Unfortunately, there is not enough information to specify both the touching +ellipse and the tool ellipse, so one has to resort to approximations. One +simple scheme, which is compatible with earlier usage, is:: + + ABS_MT_TOUCH_MAJOR := min(X, Y) + ABS_MT_TOUCH_MINOR := <not used> + ABS_MT_ORIENTATION := <not used> + ABS_MT_WIDTH_MAJOR := min(X, Y) + distance(T, C) + ABS_MT_WIDTH_MINOR := min(X, Y) + +Rationale: We have no information about the orientation of the touching +ellipse, so approximate it with an inscribed circle instead. The tool +ellipse should align with the vector (T - C), so the diameter must +increase with distance(T, C). Finally, assume that the touch diameter is +equal to the tool thickness, and we arrive at the formulas above. + +Finger Tracking +--------------- + +The process of finger tracking, i.e., to assign a unique trackingID to each +initiated contact on the surface, is a Euclidean Bipartite Matching +problem. At each event synchronization, the set of actual contacts is +matched to the set of contacts from the previous synchronization. A full +implementation can be found in [#f3]_. + + +Gestures +-------- + +In the specific application of creating gesture events, the TOUCH and WIDTH +parameters can be used to, e.g., approximate finger pressure or distinguish +between index finger and thumb. With the addition of the MINOR parameters, +one can also distinguish between a sweeping finger and a pointing finger, +and with ORIENTATION, one can detect twisting of fingers. + + +Notes +----- + +In order to stay compatible with existing applications, the data reported +in a finger packet must not be recognized as single-touch events. + +For type A devices, all finger data bypasses input filtering, since +subsequent events of the same type refer to different fingers. + +.. [#f1] Also, the difference (TOOL_X - POSITION_X) can be used to model tilt. +.. [#f2] The list can of course be extended. +.. [#f3] The mtdev project: http://bitmath.org/code/mtdev/. +..

Commands are sent to the +kernel module by writing to the device, and any data received from the serio +driver is read as-is from the /dev/userio device. All of the structures and +macros you need to interact with the device are defined in <linux/userio.h> and +<linux/serio.h>. + +Command Structure +================= + +The struct used for sending commands to /dev/userio is as follows:: + + struct userio_cmd { + __u8 type; + __u8 data; + }; + +``type`` describes the type of command that is being sent. This can be any one +of the USERIO_CMD macros defined in <linux/userio.h>. ``data`` is the argument +that goes along with the command. In the event that the command doesn't have an +argument, this field can be left untouched and will be ignored by the kernel. +Each command should be sent by writing the struct directly to the character +device. In the event that the command you send is invalid, an error will be +returned by the character device and a more descriptive error will be printed +to the kernel log. Only one command can be sent at a time, any additional data +written to the character device after the initial command will be ignored. + +To close the virtual serio port, just close /dev/userio. + +Commands +======== + +USERIO_CMD_REGISTER +~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ + +Registers the port with the serio driver and begins transmitting data back and +forth. Registration can only be performed once a port type is set with +USERIO_CMD_SET_PORT_TYPE. Has no argument. + +USERIO_CMD_SET_PORT_TYPE +~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ + +Sets the type of port we're emulating, where ``data`` is the port type being +set. Can be any of the serio type macros from <linux/serio.h>. For example: +SERIO_8042 would set the port type to be a normal PS/2 port. + +USERIO_CMD_SET_PORT_PROTO +~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ + +Sets the protocol of port we're emulating, where ``data`` is the protocol being +set. Can be any of the serio proto macros from <linux/serio.h>. For example: +SERIO_IFORCE would set the port type to be an I-Force serial joystick. + +USERIO_CMD_SET_PORT_ID +~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ + +Sets the ``id`` value on the identification of port we're emulating, where +``data`` is the value being set. + +USERIO_CMD_SET_PORT_EXTRA +~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ + +Sets the ``extra`` value on the identification of port we're emulating, where +``data`` is the value being set. + +USERIO_CMD_SEND_INTERRUPT +~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ + +Sends an interrupt through the virtual serio port to the serio driver, where +``data`` is the interrupt data being sent. + +Userspace tools +=============== + +The userio userspace tools are able to record PS/2 devices using some of the +debugging information from i8042, and play back the devices on /dev/userio. The +latest version of these tools can be found at: + + https://github.com/Lyude/ps2emu |
