1. 框架
可以用三个数据结构来描述框架,这里简单写
// ===== 输入子系统, 核心层 =====
文件 /drivers/input/input.c 内, 关键函数
input_init // 初始化
class_register // 注册类
register_chrdev // 注册设备(主设备号13)
input_register_device // 注册硬件设备 input_dev
input_register_handler // 注册软件抽象 input_handler
input_register_handle // 注册连接 input_handle
// ===== 软件抽象层, 系统已实现 =====
1. static 初始化一个 input_handler 全局变量
2. 注册此变量, input_register_handler
3. 实现 event connect 等函数
struct input_handler {
event,connect, disconnect, start // 函数具体实现的指针
int minor; // 次设备号
const char *name; // 显示在proc/bus/input/handlers
const struct input_device_id *id_table; // 驱动支持的id表(用于匹配input_dev)
const struct input_device_id *blacklist;// id表黑名单
struct list_head h_list; // 存放input_handle(没有r)的链表
struct list_head node; // 存放input_handler自身的链表
};
// ===== 连接层, 系统已实现 =====
多个文件 /drivers/input/*dev.c 内*/
1. *dev_connect里分配 input_handle(没有r)变量
2. 设置/初始化此变量
3. 注册, input_register_handle(没有r)
struct input_handle(没有r) {
void *private; // 私有数据, 指向了父指针
struct input_dev *dev; // 指向input_dev
struct input_handler *handler; // 指向 input_handler
struct list_head d_node; // 存放input_dev->h_list的链表
struct list_head h_node; // 存放input_handler->h_list的链表
};
// ===== 硬件设备层, 自己写 =====
1. 分配一个input_dev变量
2. 设置/初始化此变量
3. 注册, input_register_device
4. 硬件相关代码, open, close, event, sync等等.
struct input_dev {
const char *name; // 设备描述
const char *phys; // 设备路径
struct input_id id; // 总线类型. 供应商/产品/版本信息. 用于匹配 input_handler
unsigned long evbit[NBITS(EV_MAX)]; // 记录支持的事件类型位图
unsigned long keybit[NBITS(KEY_MAX)]; // 记录支持的按键值位图
unsigned long relbit[NBITS(REL_MAX)]; // 记录支持的相对坐标位图, 如滚轮
unsigned long absbit[NBITS(ABS_MAX)]; // 记录支持的绝对坐标位图, 如触摸屏
struct list_head h_list; // 存放input_handle(没有r)的链表
struct list_head node; // 存放input_dev自身的链表
};
可以用下面的图描述这三者关系
Linux 中 input_handler、input_handle和input_dev 之间的联系
在 Linux 中,input_handler、input_handle 和 input_dev 是与输入子系统相关的三个重要概念,它们之间的联系如下:
- input_dev:input_dev 是输入设备的抽象表示,它包含了输入设备的各种属性和状态信息,如设备名称、设备类型、设备 ID、事件类型、事件码等。input_dev 通常由输入设备驱动程序创建,并在注册到输入子系统后被使用。
- input_handle:input_handle 是输入设备的句柄,它用于标识一个输入设备的实例。每个输入设备都有一个唯一的 input_handle,它由输入子系统分配并在注册时返回给输入设备驱动程序。input_handle 可以用于在输入子系统中查找和操作输入设备。
- input_handler:input_handler 是输入事件的处理程序,它负责处理输入设备产生的事件。每个输入设备都可以有一个或多个 input_handler,它们按照优先级顺序依次处理输入事件。input_handler 可以是内核中的一个模块或者用户空间中的一个应用程序。
综上所述,input_dev、input_handle 和 input_handler 是 Linux 输入子系统中的三个重要概念,它们之间的联系是:input_dev 表示输入设备的抽象表示,input_handle 是输入设备的句柄,用于标识一个输入设备的实例,input_handler 是输入事件的处理程序,负责处理输入设备产生的事件。
接下来用evdev举例看看这三者关系是如何建立的
1.1 数据结构
struct evdev {
int open; // open,当用户open此设备时,open的值加1
struct input_handle handle; // 包括了匹配的 dev 与 handler
struct evdev_client __rcu *grab; // 可以指定grab evdev_client,这样只会有此client获得input事件数据
struct list_head client_list; // 用于把所有client链接在一起
spinlock_t client_lock; /* protects client_list */
struct mutex mutex;
struct device dev; // 用来嵌入到设备模型中
struct cdev cdev; // 字符设备
bool exist; // evdev init成功
};
struct evdev_client {
unsigned int head; // 头指针
unsigned int tail; // 尾指针
unsigned int packet_head; // 包指针
spinlock_t buffer_lock; /* protects access to buffer, head and tail */
wait_queue_head_t wait; //等待队列头
struct fasync_struct *fasync; //异步通知机制
struct evdev *evdev; //client的evdev
struct list_head node; //连接同一evdev的其他client
enum input_clock_type clk_type;
bool revoked; //client被注销则置1
unsigned long *evmasks[EV_CNT];
unsigned int bufsize; // 循环队列大小,此size向上对齐2的幂
struct input_event buffer[]; // 循环队列数组
};
evdev和evdev_client的关系

看完了match再来看connect
evdev_connect
/*

* to connect and disconnect.
*/
static int evdev_connect(struct input_handler *handler, struct input_dev *dev,
const struct input_device_id *id)
{
struct evdev *evdev;
int minor;
int dev_no;
int error;
minor = input_get_new_minor(EVDEV_MINOR_BASE, EVDEV_MINORS, true);
if (minor < 0) {
error = minor;
pr_err("failed to reserve new minor: %d\n", error);

/* Normalize device number if it falls into legacy range */
if (dev_no < EVDEV_MINOR_BASE + EVDEV_MINORS)
dev_no -= EVDEV_MINOR_BASE;

//给 handle 匹配 device 和 handler

至此三者的链接就建立完毕了,呈现出这样的关系
2. 应用如何打开节点并读取到事件数据
在这里,应用作为input事件的消费者,可以通过打开节点的方式获取到事件数据
2.1 evdev_fops
/dev/input/eventX
static const struct file_operations evdev_fops = {
.owner = THIS_MODULE,
.read = evdev_read,
.write = evdev_write,
.poll = evdev_poll,
.open = evdev_open,
.release = evdev_release,
.unlocked_ioctl = evdev_ioctl,
#ifdef CONFIG_COMPAT
.compat_ioctl = evdev_ioctl_compat,
#endif
.fasync = evdev_fasync,
.llseek = no_llseek,
};
2.2 evdev_open
核心动作是创建client将其初始化后挂入evdev的client_list
static int evdev_open(struct inode *inode, struct file *file)
{
struct evdev *evdev = container_of(inode->i_cdev, struct evdev, cdev);
unsigned int bufsize = evdev_compute_buffer_size(evdev->handle.dev);//hint_events_per_packet估算buffersize
struct evdev_client *client;//一个监听线程对应一个client
int error;
client = kvzalloc(struct_size(client, buffer, bufsize), GFP_KERNEL);
if (!client)
return -ENOMEM;
init_waitqueue_head(&client->wait); //等待队列
client->bufsize = bufsize; //设定bufsize
spin_lock_init(&client->buffer_lock); //buffer_lock
client->evdev = evdev; //建立链接
evdev_attach_client(evdev, client); //将client挂入evdev的client_list
//evdev_open_device: evdev->open ++, input_open_device(&evdev->handle);
//input_open_device:handle->open++
error = evdev_open_device(evdev);
if (error)
goto err_free_client;
file->private_data = client;
//设定file的f_mode 使可读写等
stream_open(inode, file);
return 0;
err_free_client:
evdev_detach_client(evdev, client);
kvfree(client);
return error;
}
2.3 evdev_release
核心动作是将client从client_list删除
static int evdev_release(struct inode *inode, struct file *file)
{
struct evdev_client *client = file->private_data;
struct evdev *evdev = client->evdev;
unsigned int i;
mutex_lock(&evdev->mutex);
if (evdev->exist && !client->revoked)
input_flush_device(&evdev->handle, file);
/* 如果此client grab此evdev则执行ungrab操作 */
evdev_ungrab(evdev, client);
mutex_unlock(&evdev->mutex);
/* 将client从 client_list 上删除 */
evdev_detach_client(evdev, client);
for (i = 0; i < EV_CNT; ++i)
bitmap_free(client->evmasks[i]);
kvfree(client);
/* 检查执行input_close_device */
evdev_close_device(evdev);
return 0;
}
static void evdev_close_device(struct evdev *evdev)
{
mutex_lock(&evdev->mutex);
/* evdev存在 并且 evdev没有open的device了,则close此handle对应的device */
if (evdev->exist && !--evdev->open)
input_close_device(&evdev->handle);
mutex_unlock(&evdev->mutex);
}
/**
* input_close_device - close input device
* @handle: handle through which device is being accessed
*
* This function should be called by input handlers when they
* want to stop receive events from given input device.
*/
void input_close_device(struct input_handle *handle)
{
struct input_dev *dev = handle->dev;
mutex_lock(&dev->mutex);
__input_release_device(handle);
if (!--dev->users) {
if (dev->poller)
input_dev_poller_stop(dev->poller);
if (dev->close)
dev->close(dev);
}
if (!--handle->open) {
/*
* synchronize_rcu() makes sure that input_pass_event()
* completed and that no more input events are delivered
* through this handle
*/
synchronize_rcu();
}
mutex_unlock(&dev->mutex);
}

2.4 evdev_read
应用程序实例
int main(int argc, char **argv)
{
int len;
struct input_event event;
......
while (1)
{
len = read(fd, &event, sizeof(event)); //如果使用阻塞方式未读取到信息内核将处于休眠态
//如果使用非阻塞方式且未读取到信息将进入else分支
if (len == sizeof(event))

2.5 evdev_write
对应事件注入,应用程序实例如下
struct input_event ev;
memset(&ev, 0, sizeof(struct input_event));
ev.type = EV_ABS;
gettimeofday(&ev.time, NULL);
ev.code = ABS_X;

2.10 总结
从上面的分析不难看出,应用程序读取节点event数据的核心逻辑就是判断client->packet_head != client->tail
即 client->buffer
不为空,就从buffer中读取event事件。
如果client->buffer
为空,poll和阻塞read会选择将线程挂入client->wait
休眠,device再次上报事件时会唤醒这些线程。
3. Driver 如何注册input设备并上报事件数据
在这里,device作为事件的生产者,需要通过driver中的逻辑完成input事件的上报
申请input device > 设定input device 的属性 > 注册input device > 上报事件
3.1 申请input device

/**
* input_allocate_device - allocate memory for new input device
*
* Returns prepared struct input_dev or %NULL.
*
* NOTE: Use input_free_device() to free devices that have not been
* registered; input_unregister_device() should be used for already
* registered devices.

3.2 注册input device
3.2.1 input_register_device
/**
* input_register_device - register device with input core
* @dev: device to be registered
*
* This function registers device with input core. The device must be
* allocated with input_allocate_device() and all it's capabilities
* set up before registering.
* If function fails the device must be freed with input_free_device().
* Once device has been successfully registered it can be unregistered
* with input_unregister_device(); input_free_device() should not be
* called in this case.
*
* Note that this function is also used to register managed input devices
* (ones allocated with devm_input_allocate_device()). Such managed input
* devices need not be explicitly unregistered or freed, their tear down
* is controlled by the devres infrastructure. It is also worth noting
* that tear down of managed input devices is internally a 2-step process:
* registered managed input device is first unregistered, but stays in
* memory and can still handle input_event() calls (although events will
* not be delivered anywhere). The freeing of managed input device will
* happen later, when devres stack is unwound to the point where device
* allocation was made.

type:
#define EV_SYN 0x00 //同步事件 Synchronize
code:
/*
* Synchronization events.
*/
#define SYN_REPORT 0 //用于将事件同步并分离为同时发生的输入数据变化的数据包。
#define SYN_CONFIG 1 //To Be Discussed 待讨论
#define SYN_MT_REPORT 2 //用于同步和分离触摸事件。
#define SYN_DROPPED 3 //用于指示 evdev 客户端的事件队列中的缓冲区溢出。
#define SYN_MAX 0xf //SYN类型事件最大个数和提供位掩码支持
#define SYN_CNT (SYN_MAX+1) //SYN类型事件支持事件个数 count
value:
//value根据事件的含义不同而不同
//例如 SYN_CONFIG 表示这是一个config事件它的value可以随意指定
Ref: https://blog.csdn.net/weixin_43444989/article/details/122597029
可以直接操作位图赋值
ts->input_dev->evbit[0] = BIT_MASK(EV_SYN) | BIT_MASK(EV_KEY) | BIT_MASK(EV_ABS);
ts->input_dev->keybit[BIT_WORD(BTN_TOUCH)] = BIT_MASK(BTN_TOUCH);
ts->input_dev->propbit[0] = BIT(INPUT_PROP_DIRECT);
也可以使用一些接口
//设定type为EV_ABS的code的 最小值、最大值、噪声和flat
//噪声值见input_defuzz_abs_event
void input_set_abs_params(struct input_dev *dev, unsigned int axis,

//将设备标记为能够处理特定事件 ,设定 code
void input_set_capability(struct input_dev *dev, unsigned int type, unsigned int code)
//键盘相关 没用过

if (wakeup)
/* 唤醒在poll等待队列的进程 */
wake_up_interruptible_poll(&client->wait,
EPOLLIN | EPOLLOUT | EPOLLRDNORM | EPOLLWRNORM);
}
3.4.2.8 环形缓冲区
在分析__pass_event函数之前,需要知道client的buffer是如何运作的
在事件处理层(evdev.c)中结构体evdev_client定义了一个环形缓冲区(circular buffer),其原理是用数组的方式实现了一个先进先出的循环队列(circular queue),用以缓存内核驱动上报给用户层的input_event事件
struct evdev_client {
unsigned int head; // 头指针
unsigned int tail; // 尾指针
unsigned int packet_head; // 包指针
spinlock_t buffer_lock; /* protects access to buffer, head and tail */
wait_queue_head_t wait;
struct fasync_struct *fasync;
struct evdev *evdev;
struct list_head node;
enum input_clock_type clk_type;
bool revoked;
unsigned long *evmasks[EV_CNT];
unsigned int bufsize; // 循环队列大小,此size值向上对齐2的幂
struct input_event buffer[]; // 循环队列数组
};
evdev_client对象维护了三个偏移量:head、tail以及packet_head。head、tail作为循环队列的头尾指针记录入口与出口偏移,那么包指针packet_head有什么作用呢?
packet_head:内核驱动处理一次输入,可能上报一到多个input_event事件,为表示处理完成,会在上报这些input_event事件后再上报一次同步事件。头指针head以input_event事件为单位,记录缓冲区的入口偏移量,而包指针packet_head则以“数据包”(一到多个input_event事件)为单位,记录缓冲区的入口偏移量。
- 循环队列入队算法:
head++;
head &= bufsize - 1;
- 循环队列出队算法:
tail++;
tail &= bufsize - 1;
- 循环队列已满条件:
head == tail
- 循环队列为空条件:
packet_head == tail
- “求余”和“求与”
为解决头尾指针的上溢和下溢现象,使队列的元素空间可重复使用,一般循环队列的出入队算法都采用“求余”操作:
head = (head + 1) % bufsize; // 入队
tail = (tail + 1) % bufsize; // 出队
为避免计算代价高昂的“求余”操作,使内核运作更高效,input子系统的环形缓冲区采用了“求与”算法,这要求bufsize必须为2的幂,在后文中可以看到bufsize的值实际上是为64或者8的n倍,符合“求与”运算的要求。
3.4.2.9 分析__pass_event
static void __pass_event(struct evdev_client *client,
const struct input_event *event)
{
/* input event 数据入队列 */
client->buffer[client->head++] = *event;
client->head &= client->bufsize - 1;
/*
* 如果缓冲区已满
* 则丢弃缓冲区中的事件并向缓冲区中塞入SYN_DROPPED事件
*/
if (unlikely(client->head == client->tail)) {
/*
* This effectively "drops" all unconsumed events, leaving
* EV_SYN/SYN_DROPPED plus the newest event in the queue.
*/
/* 只留下本次插入的input事件和SYN_DROPPED事件在缓冲区中 */
client->tail = (client->head - 2) & (client->bufsize - 1);
client->buffer[client->tail] = (struct input_event) {
.input_event_sec = event->input_event_sec,
.input_event_usec = event->input_event_usec,
.type = EV_SYN,
.code = SYN_DROPPED,
.value = 0,
};
client->packet_head = client->tail;
}
/* 如果是SYN_REPORT事件 */
if (event->type == EV_SYN && event->code == SYN_REPORT) {
/* 刷新包指针 */
client->packet_head = client->head;
/* 发送SIGIO和POLL_IN信号给client线程 */
kill_fasync(&client->fasync, SIGIO, POLL_IN);
}
}
4. 应用打开节点并注入事件数据
在这里,应用作为input事件的生产者,此时根据事件的不同input事件的消费者可以是应用也可以是device
前面在evdev_write简单写了,现在详细写下
应用注入事件后,事件的流转有两个方向
- 流向input_handler即向所有client上报注入的事件
- 流向input_device即回调device的event函数
4.1 事件注入
书接上回evdev_write
static ssize_t evdev_write(struct file *file, const char __user *buffer,
size_t count, loff_t *ppos)
{
struct evdev_client *client = file->private_data;
struct evdev *evdev = client->evdev;
struct input_event event;
int retval = 0;//从用户空间读取字节数
/* 用户写字节数 < event 字节数 返回inval */
if (count != 0 && count < input_event_size())
return -EINVAL;
retval = mutex_lock_interruptible(&evdev->mutex);
if (retval)
return retval;
/* evdev如果不存在和client被注销返回 nodev */
if (!evdev->exist || client->revoked) {
retval = -ENODEV;
goto out;
}
/*
* 如从用户空间读取字节数+一个event字节数 <= 用户写入的字节数
* 则按event注入节点
*/
while (retval + input_event_size() <= count) {
if (input_event_from_user(buffer + retval, &event)) {
retval = -EFAULT;
goto out;
}
retval += input_event_size();
input_inject_event(&evdev->handle,
event.type, event.code, event.value);
cond_resched();//调度
}
out:
mutex_unlock(&evdev->mutex);
return retval;
}
input_inject_event
是handler注入事件的入口
/**
* input_inject_event() - send input event from input handler
* @handle: input handle to send event through
* @type: type of the event
* @code: event code
* @value: value of the event
*
* Similar to input_event() but will ignore event if device is
* "grabbed" and handle injecting event is not the one that owns
* the device.
*/
void input_inject_event(struct input_handle *handle,
unsigned int type, unsigned int code, int value)
{
struct input_dev *dev = handle->dev;
struct input_handle *grab;
unsigned long flags;
/* 如果事件合法且device支持此事件 */
if (is_event_supported(type, dev->evbit, EV_MAX)) {
spin_lock_irqsave(&dev->event_lock, flags);
rcu_read_lock();
/* 此device是否有handle grab */
grab = rcu_dereference(dev->grab);
/* 没有handle grab device 或者 此handle grab device */
if (!grab || grab == handle)
/* 开始事件流转 */
input_handle_event(dev, type, code, value);
rcu_read_unlock();
spin_unlock_irqrestore(&dev->event_lock, flags);
}
}
EXPORT_SYMBOL(input_inject_event);
4.2 事件流向input_handler
流向input_handler的事件需要disposition满足下列条件指一
- INPUT_PASS_TO_HANDLERS
- INPUT_PASS_TO_ALL
所有设备支持的事件都会流向input_handler,事件的后续流向见上面 《3.4.2.2 接着分析input_handle_event》章节
4.3 事件流向input_device
流向input_handler的事件需要disposition满足下列条件指一
- INPUT_PASS_TO_DEVICE
- INPUT_PASS_TO_ALL
只有下面列举的事件会流向input_device
如果input_device 定义了event函数则会回调此函数
#define INPUT_IGNORE_EVENT 0 //忽略
#define INPUT_PASS_TO_HANDLERS 1 //交给handler处理
#define INPUT_PASS_TO_DEVICE 2 //交给device处理
#define INPUT_SLOT 4 //需要刷新挂起的slot事件
#define INPUT_FLUSH 8 //需要handler立即处理 只有SYN_REPORT有
#define INPUT_PASS_TO_ALL (INPUT_PASS_TO_HANDLERS | INPUT_PASS_TO_DEVICE)

unsigned int type, unsigned int code, int value)

/* 获取disposition,根据disposition来判断event的传递方向 */

...
/* 如果是向节点注入事件,则调用dev的event函数指针 */

pr_err("unable to register input_dev class\n");

unregister_chrdev_region(MKDEV(INPUT_MAJOR, 0),
INPUT_MAX_CHAR_DEVICES);
class_unregister(&input_class);
}
5.2.2 softrepeat 事件重复上报机制
如果 设置了 __set_bit(EV_REP, input->evbit);
也就是重复报告,它的工作机制是这样的:
如果按键报告了input_event(input, type, button->code, 1); 之后,
在250ms (可以改)后,依然没有报告 input_event(input, type, button->code, 0);
则 input 会每隔 33ms 继续报告一次 input_event(input, type, button->code, 2);
直到 报告了 input_event(input, type, button->code, 0); 才停止 ,
这就是我们按住一个按键不松开时,会一直打印键值的原因;
使用一个timer实现事件重复上报机制
/**
* input_allocate_device - allocate memory for new input device
*
* Returns prepared struct input_dev or %NULL.
*
* NOTE: Use input_free_device() to free devices that have not been
* registered; input_unregister_device() should be used for already
* registered devices.
*/

static atomic_t input_no = ATOMIC_INIT(-1);
struct input_dev *dev;
dev = kzalloc(sizeof(*dev), GFP_KERNEL);
if (dev) {
dev->dev.type = &input_dev_type;
dev->dev.class = &input_class;
device_initialize(&dev->dev);
mutex_init(&dev->mutex);
spin_lock_init(&dev->event_lock);
timer_setup(&dev->timer, NULL, 0);//timer在这里setup
INIT_LIST_HEAD(&dev->h_list);
INIT_LIST_HEAD(&dev->node);

if (v->value)//没有上报0
input_start_autorepeat(dev, v->code);
else//上报0了
input_stop_autorepeat(dev);
}
}
}
}
设定dev->rep[REP_DELAY]ms后第一次上报
👇
static void input_start_autorepeat(struct input_dev *dev, int code)
{
if (test_bit(EV_REP, dev->evbit) &&
dev->rep[REP_PERIOD] && dev->rep[REP_DELAY] &&
dev->timer.function) {
dev->repeat_key = code;
mod_timer(&dev->timer,
jiffies + msecs_to_jiffies(dev->rep[REP_DELAY]));
}
}
后面在按周期循环执行
👇
static void input_repeat_key(struct timer_list *t)
直到上报0了,执行
👇
static void input_stop_autorepeat(struct input_dev *dev)
{
del_timer(&dev->timer);

- ABS_MT_SLOT事件value会被存入input_dev->mt->slot 并 ignore
- 下一次ABS_MT事件来时,如果input_dev->mt->slot(当前slot值)和input_dev->absinfo[ABS_MT_SLOT](上一次slot值)如果不相等,则更新 input_dev->absinfo[ABS_MT_SLOT]并将ABS_MT_SLOT挂起存入input_dev->vals

7.6 实验
首先需要把input-poller模块编译进kernel或者编译成ko
如果是安卓设备在.config里添加即可,如果是直接使用内核的设备则需要在menuconfig里打开选项
CONFIG_INPUT_POLLDEV=m //实验选用这个
or
CONFIG_INPUT_POLLDEV=y
然后将驱动程序编成ko,设备启动后可以看到被加载的ko
8. input_poller.c
input_poller.c是一个输入设备的事件驱动程序,它使用事件通知机制来检测输入设备是否有数据可读。当输入设备有数据可读时,它会触发一个事件通知,然后将数据传递给上层应用程序。
input_poller.c和input_polldev.c两者提供的机制没有什么区别,底层逻辑都是周期性调用其结构体成员中的poll函数指针指向的函数
8.1 数据结构
struct input_dev_poller {
void (*poll)(struct input_dev *dev);
unsigned int poll_interval; //轮询间隔
unsigned int poll_interval_max; //轮询间隔的最大值
unsigned int poll_interval_min; //轮询间隔最小值
struct input_dev *input; //存放input_dev地址
struct delayed_work work; //延迟工作队列元素
};

8.4 input_dev_poller_finalize

9. Keymap
Linux input子系统中的Keymap是一个映射表,用于将输入设备上的按键映射到相应的字符或功能。它是一个非常重要的组件,因为它允许Linux系统正确地解释来自各种输入设备的输入信号。
Keymap通常由操作系统或应用程序提供,它们可以根据用户的需要进行自定义。例如,用户可以将某个按键映射到一个特定的字符或命令,或者将多个按键组合映射到一个功能键。
Keymap还可以用于解决不同键盘布局之间的差异。例如,美国键盘布局与德国键盘布局不同,因此Keymap可以确保在不同的键盘布局下,相同的按键映射到相同的字符或功能。
总之,Keymap是Linux输入子系统中的一个重要组件,它确保了输入设备的正确解释和使用。
10. input-compat.c
Linux input子系统中的input-compat是一个兼容性层,它的作用是为旧版的输入设备驱动程序提供兼容性支持,使它们能够在新版的Linux内核中正常工作。
具体来说,input-compat提供了一些函数和数据结构,用于将旧版的输入设备驱动程序与新版的输入子系统进行适配。例如,它提供了一个input_register_device函数,用于向输入子系统注册输入设备,同时还提供了一些与输入事件相关的数据结构,如input_event和input_absinfo等。
通过使用input-compat,旧版的输入设备驱动程序可以与新版的输入子系统进行兼容,从而实现输入设备的正常工作。这对于一些老旧的硬件设备来说尤为重要,因为它们的驱动程序可能已经过时,无法直接与新版的输入子系统兼容。
