      HID: Fix unit exponent parsing again · ad0e669b
      Nikolai Kondrashov 提交于
      Revert some changes done in 77463838.
      
      Revert all changes done in hidinput_calc_abs_res as it mistakingly used
      "Unit" item exponent nibbles to affect resolution value. This wasn't
      breaking resolution calculation of relevant axes of any existing
      devices, though, as they have only one dimension to their units and thus
      1 in the corresponding nible.
      
      Revert to reading "Unit Exponent" item value as a signed integer in
      hid_parser_global to fix reading specification-complying values. This
      fixes resolution calculation of devices complying to the HID standard,
      including Huion, KYE, Waltop and UC-Logic graphics tablets which have
      their report descriptors fixed by the drivers.
      
      Explanations follow.
      
      There are two "unit exponents" in HID specification and it is important
      not to mix them. One is the global "Unit Exponent" item and another is
      nibble values in the global "Unit" item. See 6.2.2.7 Global Items.
      
      The "Unit Exponent" value is just a signed integer and is used to scale
      the integer resolution unit values, so fractions can be expressed.
      
      The nibbles of "Unit" value are used to select the unit system (nibble
      0), and presence of a particular basic unit type in the unit formula and
      its *exponent* (or power, nibbles 1-6). And yes, the latter is in two
      complement and zero means absence of the unit type.
      
      Taking the representation example of (integer) joules from the
      specification:
      
      [mass(grams)][length(centimeters)^2][time(seconds)^-2] * 10^-7
      
      the "Unit Exponent" would be -7 (or 0xF9, if stored as a byte) and the
      "Unit" value would be 0xE121, signifying:
      
      Nibble  Part        Value   Meaning
      -----   ----        -----   -------
      0       System      1       SI Linear
      1       Length      2       Centimeters^2
      2       Mass        1       Grams
      3       Time        -2      Seconds^-2
      
      To give the resolution in e.g. hundredth of joules the "Unit Exponent"
      item value should have been -9.
      
      See also the examples of "Unit" values for some common units in the same
      chapter.
      
      However, there is a common misunderstanding about the "Unit Exponent"
      value encoding, where it is assumed to be stored the same as nibbles in
      "Unit" item. This is most likely due to the specification being a bit
      vague and overloading the term "unit exponent". This also was and still
      is proliferated by the official "HID Descriptor Tool", which makes this
      mistake and stores "Unit Exponent" as such. This format is also
      mentioned in books such as "USB Complete" and in Microsoft's hardware
      design guides.
      
      As a result many devices currently on the market use this encoding and
      so the driver should support them.

      HID: wiimote: fix FF deadlock · f50f9aab
      David Herrmann 提交于
      The input core has an internal spinlock that is acquired during event
      injection via input_event() and friends but also held during FF callbacks.
      That means, there is no way to share a lock between event-injection and FF
      handling. Unfortunately, this is what is required for wiimote state
      tracking and what we do with state.lock and input->lock.
      
      This deadlock can be triggered when using continuous data reporting and FF
      on a wiimote device at the same time. I takes me at least 30m of
      stress-testing to trigger it but users reported considerably shorter
      times (http://bpaste.net/show/132504/) when using some gaming-console
      emulators.
      
      The real problem is that we have two copies of internal state, one in the
      wiimote objects and the other in the input device. As the input-lock is
      not supposed to be accessed from outside of input-core, we have no other
      chance than offloading FF handling into a worker. This actually works
      pretty nice and also allows to implictly merge fast rumble changes into a
      single request.
      
      Due to the 3-layered workers (rumble+queue+l2cap) this might reduce FF
      responsiveness. Initial tests were fine so lets fix the race first and if
      it turns out to be too slow we can always handle FF out-of-band and skip
      the queue-worker.

      HID: uhid: allocate static minor · 19872d20
      David Herrmann 提交于
      udev has this nice feature of creating "dead" /dev/<node> device-nodes if
      it finds a devnode:<node> modalias. Once the node is accessed, the kernel
      automatically loads the module that provides the node. However, this
      requires udev to know the major:minor code to use for the node. This
      feature was introduced by:
      
        commit 578454ff
        Author: Kay Sievers <kay.sievers@vrfy.org>
        Date:   Thu May 20 18:07:20 2010 +0200
      
            driver core: add devname module aliases to allow module on-demand auto-loading
      
      However, uhid uses dynamic minor numbers so this doesn't actually work. We
      need to load uhid to know which minor it's going to use.
      
      Hence, allocate a static minor (just like uinput does) and we're good
      to go.
