Why do you need separate module parameters for multi-touch device?

Why is this unlikely? Does contact ID changes once in 1000 packets or
even less?
Mu assumption was that regardless of the fact that we are multi-touch
device still single touches will come in more frequently
But I can remove *unlikely* if my assumption is not correct
I think the normal expectation is that "unlikely" is supposed for
something that happens once in a blue moon, so I'd rather remove it.

Should we establish tool event? We have MT_TOOL_PEN, etc.
I think that for multi-touch MT_TOOL_FINGER is enough
any reason we would also want MT_TOOL_PEN here?
Why would not you? Let's say you have a drawing application running in
guest that can make use of tool types. Why would not you want to tell it
that the tool user is currently using is in fact a pen and not finger?
But it is a finger :) we are multi-touch, not multi pen
So for tablets that support both touch and stylus you would export them
as 2 separate devices?
this could be done in different ways, but please see on
pen support below
Besides, that, if I am about to implement pen support
(which I still not convinced we really need), how will I
do that?
I do not know what you have on the backend side, but roughly speaking if
you detect a pen/stylus you let your guest know that the contact is not
a finger, but pen. How you plumb it through is up to you.
we do not detect pen, only finger at the moment
and the existing protocol has no means to tell
type of the tool used, everything is supposed to
be "finger", so front-end has no possibility to
tell one tool from another
My understanding is that I need 2 different slots to report
the same coordinates for finger and pen. This is because
input_mt_report_slot_state has a check that if tool has
changed for the current slot then a new tracking ID is set.
Do I also need to allocate twice more slots, so I can
report 2 * num_contacts events simultaneously (one for finger
and another for pen)?
That said, I believe we can start with multi-touch support
and if need be then add pen support as a separate change,
does that make sense for you?
(I guess MT_TOOL_PALM is not appropriate anyways)
Depends on if you do straight pass-through from the host side or not. If
you stack does palm rejection before passing the data through then you
would not see MT_TOOL_PALM in guest.
the protocol used between guest and host is a generic one,
not using Linux types/constants/events.
It does not have to use Linux types to support the concept of different
tools.
agree
So, no PALM/TOOL support is in place
OK, that is fair. The pen support is definitely not a hard requirement.
so, can we live with finger at this point, no pen?
I was just wondering if you considered or have plans for adding that.
well, honestly, we do not need pen at the moment,
but we did add multi-touch support into Xen protocols
and if pen required it can be done as a separate
change to both protocol and front/back ends
Or
if you want to review the protocol so it can be easily added in the
future. For example you could have tool type to be part of
XENKBD_MT_EV_DOWN event.
protocol did a long way to get into Xen/Kernel... :)
of course, this can be done, but I would prefer it is
added when it is needed, not only that we have this functionality
OK.

Should we refuse MT devices with number of contacts less than 2?
we can, but I see no harm in 1. what is more, this may
allow guests to emulate more pointing devices
but, if you insist, then I will add appropriate code to
reject if number of contacts is less then 2
The question is if you are planning to keep the single-touch interface
or you will migrate everything to multi-touch.
I will keep single touch as legacy, but in our use-cases
we are more focusing on using multi-touch devices.
but even with number of contacts == 1 it can still be
useful as it gives more flexibility in configuring guest OS
If you insist that num contacts == 1 must be removed,
please let me know and I will handle that
No, that is fine. I was simply trying to understand the plans for
single/multi-touch support in your backend.

Curious why you need separate parameters here too...
This is because mt parameters are different from ptr
in a way that they are configurable per front driver's
instance rather than per backend, e.g. in XenStore:
/local/domain/0/backend/vkbd/1/0/width = "1920"
/local/domain/0/backend/vkbd/1/0/height = "1080"
/local/domain/1/device/vkbd/0/multi-touch-width = "1920"
/local/domain/1/device/vkbd/0/multi-touch-height = "1080"
/local/domain/1/device/vkbd/0/multi-touch-num-contacts = "10"
/local/domain/1/device/vkbd/1/multi-touch-width = "800"
/local/domain/1/device/vkbd/1/multi-touch-height = "600"
/local/domain/1/device/vkbd/1/multi-touch-num-contacts = "3"
The main reason for such configuration is that you can
configure multiple mt input devices even for the same guest
with different resolutions which may not match those
configured for ptr.
(In my use-case I use new displif protocol [1] in conjunction
with mt input devices and the corresponding backend is not
QEMU's xenfb)
I see.
As to module parameters, I added those to be consistent with
ptr device. Do you think we can live without them and
do you want me to remove them?
Yes, I think we better. I am also confused by the way you are handling
the module parameters. It looks to me you update them with data passed
>from the backend, but never use the data...
I have removed module parameters (the only use of those
was to be able to see configured width and height on
guest side, but this is minor)
evtest would show it to you. Or you can query input device yourself
(EVIOCGABS iotcl).
yes, if embedded system (which is my target) has evtest
but it definitely does have ioctl though

done
Also, it would be nice if we set INPUT_MT_*
flags here, so that userspace had better chance of figuring how to
handle the device.
done, I will use INPUT_MT_DIRECT | INPUT_MT_DROP_UNUSED
Does that mean that your backend does not reliably report release of
contacts?
there is a ring buffer between host and guest,
so there is always a possibility (rather small I believe)
that the buffer overruns. Do you think I need INPUT_MT_DROP_UNUSED or
we can live without it?
Again, it depends on your backend behavior. Do you report all slots
repeatedly for every packet or you report only changed slots?
we report events repeatedly, so I think we can live
w/o _DROP_UNUSED
Thanks.
Thanks.

- remove module parameters
- error handling for input_mt_init_slots
- let userspace better chance of figuring how to handle the device

Thank you,
Oleksandr
Dmitry, thank you for comments
The bottom line I see is:
- no support for PEN tool at the moment
- num contacts == 1 is OK
- I will not use INPUT_MT_DROP_UNUSED
Sounds good.
Thank you,
I will re-test the resulting patch and will send the new version
If the above is ok to you, then I will send another version of the
series (BTW, can I use your RB for the first patch which
removes hard-codes?)
I already applied that one and it should be in -next already, there is
no need to resent the first patch.
Oh, that is great, thank you
Thanks.
