We already have a lot of drivers for special HID devices that emit usages that have not been defined by HID standard. These drivers are independent on the underlying transport (USB, Bluetooth). Therefore all you ideally need to do is to add just another driver which hooks itself to HID bus and performs all that is needed in addition to what generic HID code does. There are lot of such drivers in drivers/hid/hid-*.c which you can use as examples. Please let me know if you have any further questions. -- Jiri Kosina SUSE Labs -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-input" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
