Meego people or you should explain the real end-to-end >usecase first. Why it can't fit anywhere else? I don't know the full details; but what I can think of (or did I read it somewhere?) is events like phones with slider keypad; you can power save keypad controller when the keypad is not active. And these events are probably issued from the user space to the kernel and that's why the requirement probably. And I do remember Samu mentioning about unwanted wakeup events which were avoided via these switches. Adding Samu who can explain more on this. >We should not fill in features very specific to userspace frameworks.

IMO it is because people want to mainline and push out all drivers more and more; And as of today most of these drivers and HW are tested and delivered on such frameworks :) Regards, Sundar -- 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
