Hi,
I've noticed a glitch with the Dualshock4 on 3.15rc1 (plus LEDs patch, if
that makes a difference).

Sometimes everything works as expected, the thumbsticks work OK and the
touch-pad changes axis 15 & 16 (as reported by jstest). Other times axis
15 and 16 do not report changes, instead axis 0 is corrupted/changed when
the touch-pad is 'swiped'.

Evtest appears to report correctly all the time.

It seems that the controller works first time it is plugged in (after
boot), but then fails subsequent times. I think that the first time I
don't get the pop-up message about battery being charged, which occurs on
other times.

I have not found a trigger yet, but was wondering whether others are
seeing this. I am using a USB connected DS4 (no BT on this machine). OS is
Xubuntu 13.10 with patched kernel,
Simon.

I've seen this before and it's a bug in jstest and jstest-gtk, not the driver or event system. These programs do their own internal axis mapping and don't properly handle axes above ABS_MISC which is where the touch axes are. jstest-gtk just default maps these to 0 and the old jstest just doesn't look like it does any bounds checking at all.
