linux/drivers/input/serio/* files

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

 



can any one give me simple description of the files sitting in
linux-2.6.*/drivers/input/serio/* files?

this is what given in  kernel configuration help.

config SERIO
	tristate "Serial I/O support" if EMBEDDED || !X86
	default y
	---help---
	  Say Yes here if you have any input device that uses serial I/O to
	  communicate with the system. This includes the
	  		* standard AT keyboard and PS/2 mouse *
	  as well as serial mice, Sun keyboards, some joysticks and 6dof
	  devices and more.

	  If unsure, say Y.

	  To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the
	  module will be called serio.


i am not able to figureout input system now? why  serio_* () calls are
available in keyboard driver.
will this be used for only keyboard which are connected through serial port?


thanks
Ashok
