get rid of input BIT* duplicate defines

get rid of input BIT* duplicate defines

use newly global defined macros for input layer. Also remove includes of
input.h from non-input sources only for BIT macro definiton. Define the
macro temporarily in local manner, all those local definitons will be
removed further in this patchset (to not break bisecting).
BIT macro will be globally defined (1<

HID: fix HIDIOCGRDESC memory access in hidraw

2007-10-15T15:12:00+00:00

Fix bogus copying of data into userspace when HIDIOCGRDESC is issued.
HID-transport layer makes sure that dev->hid->rdesc is not larger than
HID_MAX_DESCRIPTOR_SIZE.

HID: add hidraw interface

2007-10-14T12:47:26+00:00

hidraw is an interface that is going to obsolete hiddev one
day.

Many userland applications are using libusb instead of using
kernel-provided hiddev interface. This is caused by various
reasons - the HID parser in kernel doesn't handle all the
HID hardware on the planet properly, some devices might require
its own specific quirks/drivers, etc.

hiddev interface tries to do its best to parse all the received
reports properly, and presents only parsed usages into userspace.
This is however often not enough, and that's the reason why
many userland applications just don't use hiddev at all, and
rather use libusb to read raw USB events and process them on
their own.

Another drawback of hiddev is that it is USB-specific.

hidraw interface provides userspace readers with really raw HID
reports, no matter what the low-level transport layer is (USB/BT),
and gives the userland applications all the freedom to process
the HID reports in a way they wish to.

USBHID: report descriptor fix for MacBook JIS keyboard

2007-10-14T11:40:01+00:00

This patch fixes the problem, that Japanese MacBook doesn't recognize some keys
like '\'(yen, or backslash), '|'(pipe), and '_'(underscore).

It is due to that MacBook JIS keyboard (jp106) sends wrong report descriptor.
It saids "logical maximum = 0x65", so Keyboard.0089 is mapped to Key.Unknown,
while it should be accepted as Key.Yen.

HID: enable hiddev for the SantaRosa MacBookPro IR receiver

2007-10-14T11:40:01+00:00

The infrared remote receiver found in the SantaRosa MacBookPro
laptops (MacBookPro3,1) need to be forced to expose a HIDDEV
interface (instead of HIDINPUT) so that lirc can access it using
the 'macmini' driver.

The patch below adds the required quirk for forcing the HIDDEV
interface to be activated (HID_QUIRK_HIDDEV) and introduces a new
quirk which forces the HIDINPUT interface to be ignored
(HID_QUIRK_IGNORE_HIDINPUT).

Note that Apple calls this receiver 'IRController4' (info taken
from Apple's driver Info.plist). Older Mac{Book,Mini,Pro}s seem
to all use the 'IRController1' device (USB id 05ac:8240) which
doesn't need those quirks.

HID: support for logitech cordless desktop LX500 special mapping

2007-07-09T12:13:36+00:00

This keyboard has wireless mouse which has left, middle, right buttons and
2-dimensional scrolling wheel.  Unfornetuly, this wheel reports side scrolling
events and 11 or 12 button events at the same time.

I've wrote a patch to fix this mapping.  I'm not sure if this mapping is proper
for buttons, because , for example, there is no entry for "burn cd" in input.h.

The patch also supress 11 and 12 button events from mouse when you scroll the
wheel left and right.  With this patch, only side scrolling events are
reported.  (This mouse has only 4 buttons and 2D wheel. There is no such
buttons like 11 and 12.)

HID: separate quirks for report descriptor fixup

2007-07-09T12:13:34+00:00

Lately there have been quite a lot of bug reports against broken devices
which require us to fix their report descriptor in the runtime, before it
is passed to the HID parser. Those devices have eaten quite an amount of
our quirks space, which isn't particularly necessary - the quirks are not
needed after the report descriptor is parsed, and they just consume bits.

Therefore this patch separates the quirks for report descriptor fixup, and
moves their handling into separate code. The quirks are then forgotten as
soon as the report descriptor has been parsed.

Module parameter 'rdesc_quirks' is introduced to be able to modify these
quirks in runtime in a similar way to 'quirks' parameter for ordinary HID
quirks.

HID: support for Petalynx Maxter remote control

2007-07-09T12:13:33+00:00

Petalynx Maxter remote control [1] 0x18b1/0x0037 emits 0xfa and 0xfc from
consumer page (reserved in HUT 1.12) for back and more keys. It also emits
a few usages from LOGIVENDOR page, which need adding.

Also, this device has broken report descriptor - the reported maximum is too
low - it doesn't contain the range for 'back' and 'more' keys, so we need to
bump it up before the report descriptor is being parsed.

Besides all this, it also requires NOGET quirk.

This patch does so.
