[PATCH v1 1/2] HID: generic: Add ->match() check to __check_hid_generic()

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



From: Rafael J. Wysocki <rafael.j.wysocki@xxxxxxxxx>

Some special HID drivers (for example, hid-logitech-hidpp) use ->match()
callbacks to reject specific devices that otherwise would match the
driver's device ID list, with the expectation that those devices will
be handled by some other drivers.  However, this doesn't work if
hid-generic is expected to bind to the given device, because its
->match() callback, hid_generic_match(), rejects all devices that match
device ID lists of the other HID drivers regardless of what is returned
by the other drivers' ->match() callbacks.

To make it work, amend the function used by hid_generic_match() for
checking an individual driver, __check_hid_generic(), with a check
involving the given driver's ->match() callback, so 0 is returned
when that callback rejects the device in question.
