Input: reduce raciness when input handlers disconnect

2007-06-04T03:50:05+00:00

There is a race between input handler's release() and disconnect() methods: when input handler disconnects it wakes up all regular users and then process to walk user list to wake up async. users. While disconnect() walks the list release() removes elements of the same list causing oopses. While this is not a substibute for proper locking we can reduce odds of getting an oops if we wake up normal readers after walking the list. Signed-off-by: Dmitry Torokhov

header cleaning: don't include smp_lock.h when not used

2007-05-08T18:15:07+00:00

Remove includes of where it is not used/needed. Suggested by Al Viro. Builds cleanly on x86_64, i386, alpha, ia64, powerpc, sparc, sparc64, and arm (all 59 defconfigs). Signed-off-by: Randy Dunlap Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds

remove "struct subsystem" as it is no longer needed

2007-05-03T01:57:59+00:00

We need to work on cleaning up the relationship between kobjects, ksets and ktypes. The removal of 'struct subsystem' is the first step of this, especially as it is not really needed at all. Thanks to Kay for fixing the bugs in this patch. Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

Input: mousedev - fix sudden warps with touchpads

2007-04-12T05:31:55+00:00

Pete Zaitcev reports that with his touchpad, if he lifts the finger and places it elsewhere, the pointer sometimes warps dramatically. This happens because we don't store coordinates unless we detect a touch so sometimes we have stale coordinates in queue (from where the finger left the pad) and averaging makes cursor to jump across the screen. The solution is to always store the latest coordinates. Signed-off-by: Dmitry Torokhov

Input: handlers - handle errors from input_open_device()

Input: handlers - rename 'list' to 'client'

2007-04-12T05:30:00+00:00

The naming convention in input handlers was very confusing - client stuctures were called lists, regular lists were also called lists making anyone looking at the code go mad. Signed-off-by: Dmitry Torokhov

Input: rework handle creation code

2007-04-12T05:29:46+00:00

- consolidate code for binding handlers to a device - return error codes from handlers connect() methods back to input core and log failures Signed-off-by: Dmitry Torokhov

Input: mousedev - remap BTN_FORWARD from BTN_LEFT to BTN_MIDDLE

2006-11-17T06:06:54+00:00

In mousedev the BTN_LEFT and BTN_FORWARD were mapped to mouse button 0, causing that the user space program cannot distinguish between them through /dev/input/mice. All mice have BTN_LEFT, but not all have BTN_MIDDLE (e.g. Clevo D410J laptop). Mapping BTN_FORWARD to mouse button 2 makes the BTN_FORWARD button useful on this laptop.
