IBM / Lenovo trackpoints allow specifying a sensitivity setting through a
ps/2 command, which changes the range of the deltas sent when using the
trackpoint.
On some models with normal usage only deltas of 1 or 2 are send, resulting in
there only being 2 mouse cursor movement speeds, rather than the expected fluid
scale. Changing the sensitivity to a higher level than the bootup default fixes
this.
This commit adds support for setting a POINTINGSTICK_SENSITIVITY value
in hwdb to allow changing the sensitivity on boot through udev / hwdb.

- No need to add "Error, " prefix, we already have that as metadata.
- Also use double quotes for path names, as in most other places.
- Remove stray newline at end of message.
- Downgrade error messages after which we continue to warnings.

Parse properties in the form
EVDEV_ABS_00="<min>:<max>:<res>:<fuzz>:<flat>"
and apply them to the kernel device. Future processes that open that device
will see the updated EV_ABS range.
This is particularly useful for touchpads that don't provide a resolution in
the kernel driver but can be fixed up through hwdb entries (e.g. bcm5974).
All values in the property are optional, e.g. a string of "::45" is valid to
set the resolution to 45.
The order intentionally orders resolution before fuzz and flat despite it
being the last element in the absinfo struct. The use-case for setting
fuzz/flat is almost non-existent, resolution is probably the most common case
we'll need.
To avoid multiple hwdb invocations for the same device, replace the
hwdb "keyboard:" prefix with "evdev:" and drop the separate 60-keyboard.rules
file. The new 60-evdev.rules is called for all event nodes
anyway, we don't need a separate rules file and second callout to the hwdb
builtin.

No functional changes, just to make the next patch easier to review
|
|
No changes in the mapping, but previously we opened the device only on
successful parsing. Now we open the mapping as soon as we have a value that
looks interesting. Since errors are supposed to be the exception, not the
rule, this is probably fine.
|
|
Rather than building a map and looping through the map, immediately call the
ioctl when we have a successfully parsed property.
This has a side-effect: before the maximum number of ioctls was limited to the
size of the map (1024), now it is unlimited.
|
|
No point parsing the properties if we can't get the devnode to apply them
later. Plus, this makes future additions easier to slot in.
|
|
This patch removes includes that are not used. The removals were found with
include-what-you-use which checks if any of the symbols from a header is
in use.

Types used for pids and uids in various interfaces are unpredictable.
Too bad.

If the format string contains %m, clearly errno must have a meaningful
value, so we might as well use log_*_errno to have ERRNO= logged.
Using:
find . -name '*.[ch]' | xargs sed -r -i -e \
's/log_(debug|info|notice|warning|error|emergency)\((".*%m.*")/log_\1_errno(errno, \2/'
Plus some whitespace, linewrap, and indent adjustments.
|
|
It corrrectly handles both positive and negative errno values.
|
|
As a followup to 086891e5c1 "log: add an "error" parameter to all
low-level logging calls and intrdouce log_error_errno() as log calls
that take error numbers", use sed to convert the simple cases to use
the new macros:
find . -name '*.[ch]' | xargs sed -r -i -e \
's/log_(debug|info|notice|warning|error|emergency)\("(.*)%s"(.*), strerror\(-([a-zA-Z_]+)\)\);/log_\1_errno(-\4, "\2%m"\3);/'
Multi-line log_*() invocations are not covered.
And we also should add log_unit_*_errno().

Like with the old udev rules, allow hwdb entries to specify numeric key codes.
Based on a patch from Mircea Miron.

I am getting
"Error calling EVIOCSKEYCODE (scan code 0xc022d, key code 418): Invalid
argument", the error message does not tell on which specific device the
problem is, add that info.
|
|
including it in the log strings
|
|
Make the "Error calling EVIOCSKEYCODE" error message more useful by mentioning
which scan/key code it tried to set.
|
|
Use strtoul(), as scan codes are always positive. On 32 bit architectures
strtol gives wrong results:
strtol("fffffff0", &endptr, 16)
returns 2147483647 instead of 4294967280.
