Subject: Re: [PATCH 1/2] input: synaptics - make image sensors report ABS_MT_TOUCH_MAJOR
Hi Gabriele,
[Adding Peter and Hans as this change will impact both
xf86-input-synaptics and libinput]

It looks like the current xorg-synaptics code already handles
ABS_MT_TOUCH_MAJOR as finger_width. So I think we should be good in
replacing the ABS_TOOL_WIDTH event. However, I'd prefer having Peter
confirm this because xorg-synaptics still relies a lot on the single
touch emulation.

Just FYI, this does not apply anymore on top of Dmitry's tree.
synaptics_report_slot() has been removed, and you should now report
the slot state in synaptics_report_mt_data().

That I don't like. IMO, at this point, .w should only contain the
finger width, unconditionally.
Also, with 2/2, .w is computed accurately for the second finger, but
not for the first.
I tried to figure out a way to properly extract the actual width
information from the sgm packet when the w is 0 or 1, and the only way
I found was to do the fix in synaptics_image_sensor_process(). I would
have preferred dealing with that in synaptics_parse_hw_state()
directly, but I think the final code would be more and more ugly.
Dealing with the true finger width in synaptics_image_sensor_process()
is not a problem for cr48 sensors, because they will not have the
ABS_MT_TOUCH_MAJOR event exported.
Anyway, something like that "should" work (sorry for the tab/space,
gmail in use), of course, this is untested when I send the mail :) :

Again, I'd prefer having Peter's point of view here.
If we really need both, we will need to change input-mt to also
emulate ABS_TOOL_WIDTH from ABS_MT_TOUCH_MAJOR like we do between
ABS_MT_POSITION_X|Y and ABS_X|Y.
