staging/inputfd: Direct input access protocol
This is an updated version of v3 of the inputfd protocol draft by Peter Hutterer <peter.hutterer at who-t.net>. For previous versions, see: v1: https://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/wayland-devel/2017-March/033626.html v2: https://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/wayland-devel/2017-April/033819.html v3: https://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/wayland-devel/2017-August/034828.html Quoting the last version: > This update is closer to v1 again than v2. Biggest change is: instead of a > get_seat we have a get_seat_evdev request. Anything evdev is then hanging > off that seat, basically in how it was before. The hierarchy of objects is > thus something like this: > > manager > seat_evdev > device_evdev > device_evdev > device_evdev > > and in the future we could have other interfaces like this: > > manager > seat_evdev > device_evdev > device_evdev > device_evdev > device_evdev > seat_hidraw > device_hidraw > device_hidraw > device_hidraw > seat_w3c > device_w3c > device_w3c > > Having it split at the seat level means we don't have to pollute each > interface with the different needs of the other interfaces. evdev is the > easiest case, so that's done first. I dropped the extra properties, Bastien > and I discussed this at GUADEC and we agreed it's better to implement the > minimal version first and then see what we need before trying to come up > with a generic solution. > > Cheers, > Peter Signed-off-by: Robert Mader <robert.mader@posteo.de>
