Subject: [PATCH] Partially revert "HID: generic: create one input report per application type"
This partially reverts commit f07b3c1da92db108662f99417a212fc1eddc44d1.
It looks like some mice are not correctly treated by
HID_QUIRK_INPUT_PER_APP. Those mice have the following
report descriptor:
0x05, 0x01, // Usage Page (Generic Desktop) 0
0x09, 0x02, // Usage (Mouse) 2
0xa1, 0x01, // Collection (Application) 4
0x85, 0x01, // Report ID (1) 6
0x09, 0x01, // Usage (Pointer) 8
0xa1, 0x00, // Collection (Physical) 10
0x95, 0x05, // Report Count (5) 12
0x75, 0x01, // Report Size (1) 14
0x05, 0x09, // Usage Page (Button) 16
0x19, 0x01, // Usage Minimum (1) 18
0x29, 0x05, // Usage Maximum (5) 20
0x15, 0x00, // Logical Minimum (0) 22
0x25, 0x01, // Logical Maximum (1) 24
0x81, 0x02, // Input (Data,Var,Abs) 26
...
0xc0, // End Collection 57
0x85, 0x02, // Report ID (2) 58
0x09, 0x01, // Usage (Consumer Control) 60
0xa1, 0x00, // Collection (Physical) 62
0x75, 0x0c, // Report Size (12) 64
0x95, 0x02, // Report Count (2) 66
0x05, 0x01, // Usage Page (Generic Desktop) 68
0x09, 0x30, // Usage (X) 70
0x09, 0x31, // Usage (Y) 72
0x16, 0x01, 0xf8, // Logical Minimum (-2047) 74
0x26, 0xff, 0x07, // Logical Maximum (2047) 77
0x81, 0x06, // Input (Data,Var,Rel) 80
0xc0, // End Collection 82
0xc0, // End Collection 83
...
Both the cursor position and the buttons are located in the
same application collection (Mouse) and the kernel should
only create one input device for those.
However, for an undetermined reason, the kernel splits the
device in 2, making systemd not tagging the second mouse
with the coordinates only as a mouse. And then userspace
ignores it which leads to a mouse where only the buttons
are working.
Until the quirk gets properly fixed, we should probably
revert applying it to all of the generic devices and
re-enable it when the root reason has been found.
