In the middle of a sliding gesture, we manage to have events
that look like that:
Event: time 1571859641.595517, -------------- SYN_REPORT ------------
Event: time 1571859641.606593, type 3 (EV_ABS), code 54 (ABS_MT_POSITION_Y), value 1193
Event: time 1571859641.606593, type 3 (EV_ABS), code 48 (ABS_MT_TOUCH_MAJOR), value 21
Event: time 1571859641.606593, type 3 (EV_ABS), code 58 (ABS_MT_PRESSURE), value 0
Event: time 1571859641.606593, type 3 (EV_ABS), code 1 (ABS_Y), value 1193
Event: time 1571859641.606593, type 3 (EV_ABS), code 24 (ABS_PRESSURE), value 0
Event: time 1571859641.606593, -------------- SYN_REPORT ------------
In such cases, we still have a valid ABS_MT_TRACKING_ID along
with an ABS_MT_TOUCH_MAJOR that is > 0, which both indicates
that the sliding is still in progress.
However in Documentation/input/multi-touch-protocol.rst, we
have:
ABS_MT_PRESSURE
The pressure, in arbitrary units, on the contact
area. May be used instead of TOUCH and WIDTH for
pressure-based devices or any device with a spatial
signal intensity distribution.
Because of that userspace may consider an ABS_MT_PRESSURE
of 0 as an indication that the sliding stopped. This has
side effects such as making it difficult to unlock the
screen under Android.
This fix was tested on the following devices:
- GT-I9300 with a glass screen protection
- GT-I9300 without any screen protection
- GT-N7105 with a glass screen protection
