[PATCH v2] dell-wmi: Improve unknown hotkey handling

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

 



If DMI lists a hotkey that we don't recognize, log and ignore it
instead of trying to map it to keycode 0.  I haven't seen this happen,
but it will help maintain the key map in the future and it will help
avoid sending bogus events.

This also improves the message that we log when we get an unknown key
event.

Changes from v1:
 - Use KEY_RESERVED instead of zero and document why that's okay
 - Fix scancode vs keycode confusion in the log message (whoops!)
 - Switch from hardcoded 256 to ARRAY_SIZE
