[PATCH 2/3] Input: hgpk - Rework spew detection

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

 



The old implementation of spew detection simply tracked the overall
position delta of the cursor over every 100 packets. We found that
this causes occasional false positives in spew detection, and also
that the conditions of the spewy packets are perhaps more fixed than
we once thought.

Rework the spew detection to look for packets of specific small
delta, and only recalibrating if the overall movement delta stays
within expected bounds.

Also discard duplicate packets in the advanced mode, which appear
to be very common. If we don't, the spew detection kicks in far
too early. If we get a large spew of duplicates, request a
recalibration straight up.

Based on earlier work by Paul Fox.
