Great! Thank you :)!
Please let me know whether the patch below fixes the rebinding for your
drivers that replace the report descriptor. I believe it should. Thanks in
advance for testing.
On a closer look, it seems simply freeing rdesc is far from enough. There
are lots of fields in the hid_device structure which describe the reports
and which are filled during report parsing. Namely: collection,
collection_size, maxcollection, maxapplication, report_enum, and likely
others. Parsing a new descriptor over the values of these variables,
corresponding to the previous descriptor, doesn't produce a meaningful
result.
These fields should be reset and linked data freed before a new report
descriptor could be parsed.
Sincerely,
Nick
