Hardware manufacturers group keys in the weirdest way possible. This may
cause a power-key to be grouped together with normal keyboard keys and
thus be reported on the same kernel interface.
However, user-space is often only interested in specific sets of events.
For instance, daemons dealing with system-reboot (like systemd-logind)
listen for KEY_POWER, but are not interested in any main keyboard keys.
Usually, power keys are reported via separate interfaces, however,
some i8042 boards report it in the AT matrix. To avoid waking up those
system daemons on each key-press, we had two ideas:
- split off KEY_POWER into a separate interface unconditionally
- allow filtering a specific set of events on evdev FDs
Splitting of KEY_POWER is a rather weird way to deal with this and may
break backwards-compatibility. It is also specific to KEY_POWER and might
be required for other stuff, too. Moreover, we might end up with a huge
set of input-devices just to have them properly split.
Hence, this patchset implements the second idea: An event-mask to specify
which events you're interested in. Two ioctls allow setting this mask for
each event-type. If not set, all events are reported. The type==0 entry is
used same as in EVIOCGBIT to set the actual EV_* mask of filtered events.
This way, you have a two-level filter.
We are heavily forward-compatible to new event-types and event-codes. So
new user-space will be able to run on an old kernel which doesn't know the
given event-codes or event-types.

We've got bug reports showing the old systemd-logind (at least
system-210) aborting unexpectedly, and this turned out to be because
of an invalid error code from close() call to evdev devices. close()
is supposed to return only either EINTR or EBADFD, while the device
returned ENODEV. logind was overreacting to it and decided to kill
itself when an unexpected error code was received. What a tragedy.
The bad error code comes from flush fops, and actually evdev_flush()
returns ENODEV when device is disconnected or client's access to it is
revoked. But in these cases the fact that flush did not actually happen is
not an error, but rather normal behavior. For non-disconnected devices
result of flush is also not that interesting as there is no potential of
data loss and even if it fails application has no way of handling the
error. Because of that we are better off always returning success from
evdev_flush().
Also returning EINTR from flush()/close() is discouraged (as it is not
clear how application should handle this error), so let's stop taking
evdev->mutex interruptibly.

If a new (id == -1) ff effect was uploaded from userspace,
ff-core.c::input_ff_upload() will have assigned a positive number to the
new effect id. Currently, evdev.c::evdev_do_ioctl() will save this new id
to userspace, regardless of whether the upload succeeded or not.
On upload failure, this can be confusing because the dev->ff->effects[]
array will not contain an element at the index of that new effect id.
This patch fixes this by leaving the id unchanged after upload fails.
Note: Unfortunately applications should still expect changed effect id for
quite some time.
This has been discussed on:

evdev always tries to allocate the event buffer for clients using
kzalloc rather than vmalloc, presumably to avoid mapping overhead where
possible. However, drivers like bcm5974, which claims support for
reporting 16 fingers simultaneously, can have an extraordinarily large
buffer. The resultant contiguous order-4 allocation attempt fails due
to fragmentation, and the device is thus unusable until reboot.
Try kzalloc if we can to avoid the mapping overhead, but if that fails,
fall back to vzalloc.

If we have multiple sessions on a system, we normally don't want
background sessions to read input events. Otherwise, it could capture
passwords and more entered by the user on the foreground session. This is
a real world problem as the recent XMir development showed:
http://mjg59.dreamwidth.org/27327.html
We currently rely on sessions to release input devices when being
deactivated. This relies on trust across sessions. But that's not given on
usual systems. We therefore need a way to control which processes have
access to input devices.
With VTs the kernel simply routed them through the active /dev/ttyX. This
is not possible with evdev devices, though. Moreover, we want to avoid
routing input-devices through some dispatcher-daemon in userspace (which
would add some latency).
This patch introduces EVIOCREVOKE. If called on an evdev fd, this revokes
device-access irrecoverably for that *single* open-file. Hence, once you
call EVIOCREVOKE on any dup()ed fd, all fds for that open-file will be
rather useless now (but still valid compared to close()!). This allows us
to pass fds directly to session-processes from a trusted source. The
source keeps a dup()ed fd and revokes access once the session-process is
no longer active.
Compared to the EVIOCMUTE proposal, we can avoid the CAP_SYS_ADMIN
restriction now as there is no way to revive the fd again. Hence, a user
is free to call EVIOCREVOKE themself to kill the fd.
Additionally, this ioctl allows multi-layer access-control (again compared
to EVIOCMUTE which was limited to one layer via CAP_SYS_ADMIN). A middle
layer can simply request a new open-file from the layer above and pass it
to the layer below. Now each layer can call EVIOCREVOKE on the fds to
revoke access for all layers below, at the expense of one fd per layer.
There's already ongoing experimental user-space work which demonstrates
how it can be used:

If userspace requests current KEY-state, they very likely assume that no
such events are pending in the output queue of the evdev device.
Otherwise, they will parse events which they already handled via
EVIOCGKEY(). For XKB applications this can cause irreversible keyboard
states if a modifier is locked multiple times because a CTRL-DOWN event is
handled once via EVIOCGKEY() and once from the queue via read(), even
though it should handle it only once.
Therefore, lets do the only logical thing and flush the evdev queue
atomically during this ioctl. We only flush events that are affected by
the given ioctl.
This only affects boolean events like KEY, SND, SW and LED. ABS, REL and
others are not affected as duplicate events can be handled gracefully by
user-space.
Note: This actually breaks semantics of the evdev ABI. However,
investigations showed that userspace already expects the new semantics and
we end up fixing at least all XKB applications.
All applications that are aware of this race-condition mirror the KEY
state for each open-file and detect/drop duplicate events. Hence, they do
not care whether duplicates are posted or not and work fine with this fix.
Also note that we need proper locking to guarantee atomicity and avoid
dead-locks. event_lock must be locked before queue_lock (see input-core).
However, we can safely release event_lock while flushing the queue. This
allows the input-core to proceed with pending events and only stop if it
needs our queue_lock to post new events.
This should guarantee that we don't block event-dispatching for too long
while flushing a single event queue.

Commit 7f8d4cad1e ("Input: extend the number of event (and other)

their respective structures representing input devices.
Unfortunately character device structure may outlive the parent
structure unless we do not set it up as parent of character device so
that it will stay pinned until character device is freed.
Also, now that parent structure is pinned while character device exists
we do not need to pin and unpin it every time user opens or closes it.
