2014-04-01HID: uhid: Add UHID_CREATE2 + UHID_INPUT2Petri Gynther1-0/+11
UHID_CREATE2: HID report descriptor data (rd_data) is an array in struct uhid_create2_req, instead of a pointer. Enables use from languages that don't support pointers, e.g. Python. UHID_INPUT2: Data array is the last field of struct uhid_input2_req. Enables userspace to write only the required bytes to kernel (ev.type + ev.u.input2.size + the part of the data array that matters), instead of the entire struct uhid_input2_req. Note: UHID_CREATE2 increases the total size of struct uhid_event slightly, thus increasing the size of messages that are queued for userspace. However, this won't affect the userspace processing of these events.

2013-07-31HID: uhid: use generic hidinput_input_event()David Herrmann1-1/+3
HID core provides the same functionality and can convert the input event to a raw output report. We can thus drop UHID_OUTPUT_EV and rely on the mandatory UHID_OUTPUT. User-space wasn't able to do anything with UHID_OUTPUT_EV, anyway. They don't have access to the report fields.

2012-06-18HID: uhid: add documentationDavid Herrmann1-0/+169
This describes the protocol used by uhid for user-space applications. It describes the details like non-blocking I/O and readv/writev for multiple events per syscall. Signed-off-by: David Herrmann <dh.herrmann@googlemail.com> Signed-off-by: Jiri Kosina <jkosina@suse.cz>
