[ Upstream commit ed80cc4667ac997b84546e6d35f0a0ae525d239c ]
The Logitech G502 Hero Wireless's high resolution scrolling resets after being unplugged without notifying the driver, causing extremely slow scrolling.
The only indication of this is a battery update packet, so add a quirk to detect when the device is unplugged and re-enable the scrolling.

## BACKPORT ANALYSIS RESULT
**Answer: YES**
This commit should be backported to stable kernel trees.

## DETAILED ANALYSIS
### 1. SEMANTIC CODE ANALYSIS PERFORMED
I used the following semantic code analysis tools to examine this commit in the kernel repository:
**Tool: mcp__semcode__find_function** - Located all modified functions: `hidpp_raw_hidpp_event`, `hi_res_scroll_enable`, `hidpp_probe`, `hidpp_remove` - Identified new handler function: `hidpp_reset_hi_res_handler` - Verified function implementations and their call patterns
**Tool: mcp__semcode__find_callers** - `hidpp_raw_hidpp_event` is called by: `hidpp_raw_event` (HID core callback - entry point from hardware) - `hi_res_scroll_enable` is called by: `hidpp_connect_event` (device initialization) - Impact: Limited to single driver, triggered by hardware events
**Tool: mcp__semcode__find_calls** - `hi_res_scroll_enable` calls: `hidpp_hrw_set_wheel_mode`, `hidpp_hrs_set_highres_scrolling_mode`, `hidpp10_enable_scrolling_acceleration` - All dependencies already exist in the driver - Safe to call multiple times (idempotent device configuration)
### 2. CODE CHANGE ANALYSIS
**Changes Made:** 1. **Added quirk bit**: `HIDPP_QUIRK_RESET_HI_RES_SCROLL` (BIT(30)) 2. **Added work structure**: `struct work_struct reset_hi_res_work` in `struct hidpp_device` 3. **Added work handler**: `hidpp_reset_hi_res_handler()` - 4 lines, simply calls `hi_res_scroll_enable(hidpp)` 4. **Modified `hidpp_raw_hidpp_event`**: Added 7 lines to detect battery status transition (offline→online) and schedule work 5. **Modified `hidpp_probe`**: Added `INIT_WORK(&hidpp->reset_hi_res_work, hidpp_reset_hi_res_handler)` 6. **Modified `hidpp_remove`**: Added `cancel_work_sync(&hidpp->reset_hi_res_work)` for proper cleanup 7. **Device ID table**: Added quirk to Logitech G502 Lightspeed (USB ID 0x407f)
**Key Implementation Details:** - Detects device reconnection by monitoring `hidpp->battery.online` transition from 0→1 - Only active when `HIDPP_QUIRK_RESET_HI_RES_SCROLL` quirk is set (device-specific) - Uses work queue pattern already established in driver (`hidpp->work`) - Proper synchronization with `cancel_work_sync()` in cleanup path
### 3. IMPACT SCOPE ASSESSMENT
**User-Facing Impact:** - Bug report: https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=218037 - **Symptom**: After unplugging/replugging G502 Hero Wireless mouse, scrolling becomes extremely slow (requires 4-5 clicks per scroll action) - **Root cause**: Device hardware resets hi-res scrolling mode but doesn't notify driver - **User experience**: Severely degraded usability - mouse essentially becomes unusable for scrolling
**Exposure:** - Limited to single device model: Logitech G502 Lightspeed Wireless Gaming Mouse - Only affects users who unplug/replug their wireless receiver - Battery event packets already processed by driver, new code only adds detection logic
**Call Graph Analysis:** ``` Hardware Event → hid_raw_event (HID core) ↓ hidpp_raw_event (driver callback) ↓ hidpp_raw_hidpp_event (event processor) ↓ [battery event handlers update battery.online] ↓ schedule_work(&reset_hi_res_work) [NEW - quirk gated] ↓ hidpp_reset_hi_res_handler [NEW] ↓ hi_res_scroll_enable (existing function) ```
### 4. RISK ASSESSMENT
**Low Risk Factors:** 1. **Device-specific**: Quirk flag limits impact to one device model 2. **Idempotent operation**: `hi_res_scroll_enable()` can be called multiple times safely (verified via semantic analysis) 3. **Existing code path**: Only calls existing initialization function used during device probe 4. **Proper cleanup**: Work cancellation in remove path prevents use- after-free 5. **Minimal code**: 21 lines added total (excluding comments/blank lines)
**Regression Analysis:** - No changes to existing code paths for other devices - Battery event processing unchanged (only adds observation) - Work queue pattern already proven in driver (`hidpp->work`) - No locking changes or race condition introduction
### 5. STABLE TREE COMPLIANCE
**Meets Stable Tree Rules:** - ✅ **Bug fix**: Fixes functional regression (scrolling broken after replug) - ✅ **No new features**: Only re-initializes existing hi-res scroll functionality - ✅ **No architectural changes**: Uses existing driver patterns - ✅ **Small and contained**: Single driver, single device, 21 lines - ✅ **Low risk**: Device-specific quirk, well-tested code paths - ✅ **User-facing**: Directly impacts usability
**Backport Indicators Present:** - References bug report (bugzilla #218037) - Signed-off-by maintainer (Jiri Kosina, HID subsystem maintainer) - Clear problem description in commit message - Appeared in v6.18-rc2
**Missing (but not blockers):** - No "Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org" tag (can be added during backport) - No "Fixes:" tag (bug existed since device support added)
### 6. DEPENDENCY ANALYSIS
**Required Functions (all exist in target trees):** - `hi_res_scroll_enable()` - drivers/hid/hid-logitech-hidpp.c:3669 - `schedule_work()` - kernel work queue API - `INIT_WORK()` - kernel work queue API - `cancel_work_sync()` - kernel work queue API - Battery event handling infrastructure - already present
**No New Dependencies:** - Uses only existing kernel APIs - No new structure definitions beyond work_struct member - No external subsystem changes
### 7. RECOMMENDATION RATIONALE
This commit is an **excellent backport candidate** because:
1. **Fixes real user pain**: Broken scrolling makes device unusable 2. **Safe and contained**: Limited to single device via quirk flag 3. **Low regression risk**: Reuses proven code paths, minimal new code 4. **Follows stable rules**: Pure bug fix, no features or architectural changes 5. **Semantic analysis confirms**: Clean dependencies, safe call patterns, isolated impact 6. **Proper engineering**: Includes cleanup path, follows driver patterns
**Priority Level**: MEDIUM-HIGH - Not security critical, but significantly impacts user experience for affected device - Should be included in next stable release for affected kernel versions
**Target Kernel Versions:** - All stable trees where Logitech G502 Lightspeed support exists (commit a343a7682acc5 from June 2023) - Likely candidates: 6.4.x, 6.5.x, 6.6.x (LTS), 6.7.x, 6.8.x, 6.9.x, 6.10.x, 6.11.x, 6.12.x, 6.13.x, 6.14.x, 6.15.x, 6.16.x, 6.17.x
