Thinking more about this I just realized that the input subsystem
already has a mechanism for dealing with scancode ranges with
(big) holes in them in the form of linux/input/sparse-keymap.h .
I think that what needs to be done is convert the existing code
to use sparse-keymap, keeping the mapping of the "MHKP"
returned hkey codes to internal TP_ACPI_HOTKEYSCAN_* values
for currently supported "MHKP" hkey codes for compatibility
and then for new codes just directly map them in the sparse map
aka the struct key_entry table. After converting the existing code
to use sparse-keymap, then for the new events we would simply add:
{ KE_KEY, 0x131d, { KEY_VENDOR} }, /* Fn + N, system debug info */
{ KE_KEY, 0x8036, { KEY_PROG1 } }, /* Trackpoint doubletap */
entries to the table without needing to define intermediate
TP_ACPI_HOTKEYSCAN_* values for these.
I already have somewhat of a design for this in my head and I really
believe this is the way forward as it uses existing kernel infra
and it will avoid hitting this problem again when some other new
"MHKP" hkey codes show up.
I plan to start working on implementing conversion of the existing
code to use sparse-keymap, which should result in a nice cleanup
after lunch and I hope to have something for you to test no later
then next Tuesday.
Regards,
Hans
