Hey, Ethan recently posted a patch to SDL's GameControllersDB to fix up buttons on his GPDWin 2: https://twitter.com/flibitijibibo/status/1000835085891973127 There are a couple of problems with this approach though: - it only works with SDL, not with any other possible users of the joystick API - the parsing code depends on the SDL library, again problematic for non-SDL programs There are advantages as well: - it's easy to write and test, there are test applications using SDL, and fixing the problem is as easy as sharing a single line to add to a file - the documentation is pretty good: https://github.com/gabomdq/SDL_GameControllerDB which is better than: https://www.kernel.org/doc/Documentation/input/joydev/joystick.rst Can we think of a way where writing and testing "fixups" is easy enough to do without having a kernel development tree ready, documentation would better explain the different cases for fixups, and everybody can benefit from having quirks written?
