Input: uinput - fix ioctl nr overflow for UI_GET_SYSNAME/VERSION

2015-01-12T00:27:25Z

Request number for ioctls are encoded as 8bit numbers, but unfortunately UI_GET_SYSNAME and UI_GET_VERSION specifu values larger than that, so they get truncated to 44 (0x2c) and 45 (0x2d). This change makes requested values match their effective values (the ABI stays intact). Signed-off-by: Gabriel Laskar Signed-off-by: Dmitry Torokhov

Input: uinput - add UI_GET_SYSNAME ioctl to retrieve the sysfs path

2014-02-12T23:00:34Z

uinput is used in the xorg-integration-tests suite and in the wayland test suite. These automated tests suites create many virtual input devices and then hook something to read these newly created devices. Currently, uinput does not provide the created input device, which means that we rely on an heuristic to guess which input node was created. The problem is that is heuristic is subjected to races between different uinput devices or even with physical devices. Having a way to retrieve the sysfs path allows us to find without any doubts the event node. Signed-off-by: Benjamin Tissoires Reviewed-by: David Herrmann Signed-off-by: Dmitry Torokhov
