This is not correct: it will break when time wraps around. If you need
to store/compare times do it in jiffies and use
time_before()/time_after() API.
But I am confused why you need this. Can you please explain?
Thanks.
This does work when time wraps around, unless I've misunderstood you (
see: https://ideone.com/OTnMH7 ). However, I will change this to
jiffies since that seems to be the lingua franca for time in the
kernel.
Please.
I went over why this particular time delta check is required earlier
in this thread. For brevity, I'll say this is required to allow
"two-finger" scenario where one finger navigates, while the other
clicks on the primary mouse button. I can go into further detail if
you like.
Please because I tried going back to earlier messages but I could not
find detailed explanation for the delay in reporting touch.
Thanks.
By default, with 1 finger touching and moving, the touchpad sends a stream of interleaved absolute position (ABS) and relative position (REL) packets. When using two fingers (for instance, one to move and another to left/right click) the touchpad only sends REl packets. When the 'navigating' finger stops moving and is lifted up their is only 1 finger touching the pad (but not moving), the touchpad resumes sending ABS packets (but no REL packets since there is no movement).
This is why only REL packets are used to identify touch. If both ABS and REL packets implied touch, then when using two fingers the 'touch' event would not end until both fingers are lifted. However, when a user taps the touchpad, a couple of ABS packets will be received, but no REL packets (as there is no motion). So, the above timeout logic must exist to detect taps correctly.
best,
-Richard
