Commit 8f18eca9ebc5 ("HID: ite: Add USB id match for Acer SW5-012 keyboard dock") added the USB id for the Acer SW5-012's keyboard dock to the hid-ite driver to fix the rfkill driver not working.
Most keyboard docks with an ITE 8595 keyboard/touchpad controller have the "Wireless Radio Control" bits which need the special hid-ite driver on the second USB interface (the mouse interface) and their touchpad only supports mouse emulation, so using generic hid-input handling for anything but the "Wireless Radio Control" bits is fine. On these devices we simply bind to all USB interfaces.
But unlike other ITE8595 using keyboard docks, the Acer Aspire Switch 10 (SW5-012)'s touchpad not only does mouse emulation it also supports HID-multitouch and all the keys including the "Wireless Radio Control" bits have been moved to the first USB interface (the keyboard intf).
So we need hid-ite to handle the first (keyboard) USB interface and have it NOT bind to the second (mouse) USB interface so that that can be handled by hid-multitouch.c and we get proper multi-touch support.
This commit adds a match callback to hid-ite which makes it only match the first USB interface when running on the Acer SW5-012, fixing the regression to mouse-emulation mode introduced by adding the keyboard dock USB id.
Note the match function only does the special only bind to the first USB interface on the Acer SW5-012, on other devices the hid-ite driver actually must bind to the second interface as that is where the "Wireless Radio Control" bits are.
This is not a full review, but a couple of things that popped out while scrolling through the patch.

There is hid_match_one_id() but that is not exported (can be fixed) and it requires a struct hid_device_id, which either requires declaring an extra standalone struct hid_device_id for the SW5-012 kbd-dock, or hardcoding an index into the existing hid_device_id array for the driver (with the hardcoding being error prone, so not a good idea).
Given the problems with using hid_match_one_id() I decided to just go with the above.
right. An other solution would be to have a local macro/function that does that. Because as soon as you start adding a quirk, an other comes right after.
But see below.
return true;intf = to_usb_interface(hdev->dev.parent);And this is oops-prone. You need:
- ensure hid_is_using_ll_driver(hdev, &usb_hid_driver) returns true.
- add a dependency on USBHID in the KConfig now that you are checking
on the USB transport layer.
That being said, I would love instead:
- to have a non USB version of this match, where you decide which
component needs to be handled based on the report descriptor
Actually your idea to use the desciptors is not bad, but since what we really want is to not bind to the interface which is marked for the hid-multitouch driver I just realized we can just check that.
So how about:
static bool ite_match(struct hid_device *hdev, bool ignore_special_driver) { if (ignore_special_driver) return false;
/* * Some keyboard docks with an ITE 8595 keyboard/touchpad controller * support the HID multitouch protocol for the touchpad, in that * case the "Wireless Radio Control" bits which we care about are * on the other interface; and we should not bind to the multitouch * capable interface as that breaks multitouch support. */ return hdev->group != HID_GROUP_MULTITOUCH_WIN_8;}
Yep, I like that very much :)
? (note untested)
Zdeněk I have attached a new version of the patch which uses this improved version of the match function, if you have a chance to test it this weekend that would be great, otherwise I will test it on my own sw5-012 on Monday.
- have a regression test in
https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/libevdev/hid-tools for this particular device, because I never intended the .match callback to be used by anybody else than hid-generic, and opening this can of worms is prone to introduce regressions in the future.
Ugh, I can understand your desire for a test for this, but writing tests is not really my thing. Anyways do you have an example test I could use as a start ?
So, if I am not wrong: - keyboard docks with an ITE 8595 keyboard/touchpad controller are registered in hid-ite.c, but should be really bound to hid-multitouch. - there are at least 2 HID interfaces (sharing the same VID/PID), one for the keyboard (hid-ite.c), and one for the touchpad (hid-multitouch.c) - what matters in the end, is that the multitouch interface gets correctly mapped and handled.
So if that is somehow accurate, I think a test would be a matter of: - duplicating https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/libevdev/hid-tools/blob/master/tests/test_mul..., - add the report descriptors of the touchpad interface, - and check that the unpatched kernel picks up hid-ite.c, which leads to errors in the multitouch tests - ideally, we should also add a test for the expected hid-ite.c part, but I can do that later with the report descriptors.
So initially, it shouldn't be more than a 3 lines patch (hopefully). Actually 4, because you also need to force the VID/PID with `info=(0x3, 0xVID, 0xPID)` (see TestZytronic_14c8_0005 for an example, in the same file)
