[PATCH 1/2] input: Allow filtering of i8042 events

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Some hardware (such as Dell laptops) signal a variety of events through the
i8042 controller, even if these don't map to keyboard events. Add support
for drivers to filter the i8042 event stream in order to respond to these
events and (if appropriate) block them from entering the input stream.

This version makes the filter global and just lets the filter driver handle
making sure it's only looking at the correct data.
