2020-12-02Input: Add "inhibited" propertyPatrik Fimml
Userspace might want to implement a policy to temporarily disregard input from certain devices, including not treating them as wakeup sources. An example use case is a laptop, whose keyboard can be folded under the screen to create tablet-like experience. The user then must hold the laptop in such a way that it is difficult to avoid pressing the keyboard keys. It is therefore desirable to temporarily disregard input from the keyboard, until it is folded back. This obviously is a policy which should be kept out of the kernel, but the kernel must provide suitable means to implement such a policy. This patch adds a sysfs interface for exactly this purpose. To implement the said interface it adds an "inhibited" property to struct input_dev, and effectively creates four states a device can be in: closed uninhibited, closed inhibited, open uninhibited, open inhibited. It also defers calling driver's ->open() and ->close() to until they are actually needed, e.g. it makes no sense to prepare the underlying device for generating events (->open()) if the device is inhibited. uninhibit closed <------------ closed uninhibited ------------> inhibited | ^ inhibit | ^ 1st | | 1st | | open | | open | | | | | | | | last | | last | | close | | close v | uninhibit v | open <------------ open uninhibited ------------> inhibited The top inhibit/uninhibit transition happens when users == 0. The bottom inhibit/uninhibit transition happens when users > 0. The left open/close transition happens when !inhibited. The right open/close transition happens when inhibited. Due to all transitions being serialized with dev->mutex, it is impossible to have "diagonal" transitions between closed uninhibited and open inhibited or between open uninhibited and closed inhibited. No new callbacks are added to drivers, because their open() and close() serve exactly the purpose to tell the driver to start/stop providing events to the input core. Consequently, open() and close() - if provided - are called in both inhibit and uninhibit paths.

2018-08-08Input: do not use WARN() in input_alloc_absinfo()Dmitry Torokhov
Some of fuzzers set panic_on_warn=1 so that they can handle WARN()ings the same way they handle full-blown kernel crashes. We used WARN() in input_alloc_absinfo() to get a better idea where memory allocation failed, but since then kmalloc() and friends started dumping call stack on memory allocation failures anyway, so we are not getting anything extra from WARN(). Because of the above, let's replace WARN with dev_err(). We use dev_err() instead of simply removing message and relying on kcalloc() to give us stack dump so that we'd know the instance of hardware device to which we were trying to attach input device.

There is a demand from driver's writers to use managed devices framework for their drivers. Unfortunately up to this moment input devices did not provide support for managed devices and that lead to mixing two styles of resource management which usually introduced more bugs, such as manually unregistering input device but relying in devres to free interrupt handler which (unless device is properly shut off) can cause ISR to reference already freed memory. This change introduces devm_input_allocate_device() that will allocate managed instance of input device so that driver writers who prefer using devm_* framework do not have to mix 2 styles.

2012-09-19Input: Send events one packet at a timeHenrik Rydberg
On heavy event loads, such as a multitouch driver, the irqsoff latency can be as high as 250 us. By accumulating a frame worth of data before passing it on, the latency can be dramatically reduced. As a side effect, the special EV_SYN handling can be removed, since the frame is now atomic. This patch adds the events() handler callback and uses it if it exists. The latency is improved by 50 us even without the callback.
