HID: fix pb_fnmode and move it to generic HID

2007-01-30T14:05:27+00:00

The apple powerbook people are used to switch the pb_fnmode
setting at runtime through writing to sysfs, altering the
module parameter value. This was broken for them in 2.6.20-rc1
when generic HID layer was introduced, as the pb_fnmode flag
was made per-hiddevice, instead of global variable.

This patch moves the pb_fnmode module parameter from usbhid module
to hid module, but apart from that retains backward compatibility
with respect to changing the mode through sysfs.

[PATCH] Generic HID layer - pb_fnmode

2006-12-08T18:43:19+00:00

pb_fnmode parameter has to be passed to usbhid, both for compatibility reasons
and also because it logically belongs there.

Also removes empty hid-input.c file in drivers/usb/input.

[PATCH] Generic HID layer - input and event reporting

2006-12-08T18:43:17+00:00

hid_input_report() was needlessly USB-specific in USB HID. This patch
makes the function independent of HID implementation and fixes all
the current users. Bluetooth patches comply with this prototype.

[PATCH] Generic HID layer - hiddev

2006-12-08T18:43:15+00:00

- hiddev is USB-only (agreed with Marcel Holtmann that Bluetooth currently
  doesn't need it, and future planned interface (rawhid) will be more flexible
  and usable)
- both HID and USB-hid can be now compiled as modules (wasn't possible before
  hiddev was fully separated from generic HID layer)

[PATCH] Generic HID layer - USB API

2006-12-08T18:43:14+00:00

- 'dev' in struct hid_device changed from struct usb_device to
  struct device and fixed all the users
- renamed functions which are part of USB HID API from 'hid_*' to
  'usbhid_*'
- force feedback initialization moved from common part into USB-specific
  driver
- added usbhid.h header for USB HID API users
- removed USB-specific fields from struct hid_device and moved them
  to new usbhid_device, which is pointed to by hid_device->driver_data
- fixed all USB users to use this new structure

[PATCH] Generic HID layer - API

2006-12-08T18:43:12+00:00

- fixed generic API (added neccessary EXPORT_SYMBOL, fixed hid.h to provide correct
  prototypes)
- extended hid_device with open/close/event function pointers to driver-specific
  functions
- added driver specific driver_data to hid_device

[PATCH] Generic HID layer - code split

2006-12-08T18:43:01+00:00

The "big main" split of USB HID code into generic HID code and
USB-transport specific HID handling.
