VMMouse enables low-latency mouse-cursor-movements for VMWare and QEMU
guests. By removing the guest cursor and using the host as a guest cursor
the cursor movement appears instant although in reality there is some lag.
To be able to do this, the host's view of the cursor position must exactly
match the guest's view and an absolute pointer device is needed. Enter the
VMMouse. While the VMMouse driver has historically been an Xorg user-space
driver, implementing it as a kernel imput driver enables rootless Xorg and
new compositing display servers for VMware guests.

These PS/2 commands make some touchpads stop responding, so this commit
adds some dummy functions to replace the generic implementation. Because
scale changes were not encapsulated in a method of struct psmouse yet, this
commit adds a method set_scale to psmouse.

Most of the protocol for these touchpads has been reverse engineered. This
commit adds a basic multitouch-capable driver.
A lot of the protocol is still unknown. Especially, we don't know how to
identify the device yet apart from the PNP ID.
The previous workaround for these devices has been left in place in case
the driver is not compiled into the kernel or in case some other device
with the same PNP ID is not recognized by the driver yet still has the same
problems with the device probing code.

Currently, the synaptics driver puts the device into Absolute mode.
As explained in the synaptics documentation section 3.2, in this mode,
the device sends a continuous stream of packets at the maximum rate
to the host when the user's fingers are near or on the pad or
pressing buttons, and continues streaming for 1 second afterwards.
These packets are even sent when there is no new information to report,
even when they are duplicates of the previous packet.
For embedded systems this is a bit much - it results in a huge
and uninterrupted stream of interrupts at high rate.
This patch adds support for Relative mode, which can be selected as
a new psmouse protocol. In this mode, the device does not send duplicate
packets and acts like a standard PS/2 mouse. However, synaptics-specific
functionality is still available, such as the ability to set the packet
rate, and rather than disabling gestures and taps at the hardware level
unconditionally, a 'synaptics_disable_gesture' sysfs attribute has
been added to allow control of this functionality.
This solves a long standing OLPC issue: synaptics hardware enables
tap to click by default (even in the default relative mode), but we
have found this to be inappropriate for young children and first
time computer users. Enabling the synaptics driver disables tap-to-click,
but we have previously been unable to use this because it also enables
Absolute mode, which is too "spammy" for our desires and actually
overloads our EC with its continuous stream of packets. Now we can enable
the synaptics driver, disabling tap to click while retaining the less
noisy Relative mode.

This adds support for OLPC's touchpad. It has lots of neat features,
none of which are enabled because the hardware is too buggy. Instead,
we use it like a normal touchpad, but with a number of workarounds in
place to deal with the frequent hardware spasms. Humidity changes,
sweat, tinfoil underwear, plugging in AC, drinks, evil felines.. All
tend to cause the touchpad to freak out.

psmouse_queue_work is passed a delayed_work struct, and queues up the work
with kpsmouse_wq. Since we're dealing with delayed_work stuff, this
also switches resync_work to a delayed_work struct as well, and makes
use of psmouse_queue_work when doing a resync within psmouse-base.

sysfs is now completely out of driver/module lifetime game. After
deletion, a sysfs node doesn't access anything outside sysfs proper,
so there's no reason to hold onto the attribute owners. Note that
often the wrong modules were accounted for as owners leading to
accessing removed modules.
This patch kills now unnecessary attribute->owner. Note that with
this change, userland holding a sysfs node does not prevent the
backing module from being unloaded.

Cortron PS/2 Trackballs (700-0001A) report the 4th button using the 4th
bit of the first packet (yes, it breaks the standard PS/2 protocol).
This patch adds an extra protocol to generate BTN_SIDE based on the 4th
bit. There's no way to detect those trackballs using any kind of special
sequence, thus the protocol must be activated explicitely by writing
into 'protocol' sysfs attribute:

Maintain a per-CPU global "struct pt_regs *" variable which can be used instead
of passing regs around manually through all ~1800 interrupt handlers in the
Linux kernel.
The regs pointer is used in few places, but it potentially costs both stack
space and code to pass it around. On the FRV arch, removing the regs parameter
from all the genirq function results in a 20% speed up of the IRQ exit path
(ie: from leaving timer_interrupt() to leaving do_IRQ()).
Where appropriate, an arch may override the generic storage facility and do
something different with the variable. On FRV, for instance, the address is
maintained in GR28 at all times inside the kernel as part of general exception
handling.
Having looked over the code, it appears that the parameter may be handed down
through up to twenty or so layers of functions. Consider a USB character
device attached to a USB hub, attached to a USB controller that posts its
interrupts through a cascaded auxiliary interrupt controller. A character
device driver may want to pass regs to the sysrq handler through the input
layer which adds another few layers of parameter passing.
I've build this code with allyesconfig for x86_64 and i386. I've runtested the
main part of the code on FRV and i386, though I can't test most of the drivers.
I've also done partial conversion for powerpc and MIPS - these at least compile
with minimal configurations.
This will affect all archs. Mostly the changes should be relatively easy.
Take do_IRQ(), store the regs pointer at the beginning, saving the old one:
struct pt_regs *old_regs = set_irq_regs(regs);
And put the old one back at the end:
set_irq_regs(old_regs);
Don't pass regs through to generic_handle_irq() or __do_IRQ().
In timer_interrupt(), this sort of change will be necessary:
- update_process_times(user_mode(regs));
- profile_tick(CPU_PROFILING, regs);
+ update_process_times(user_mode(get_irq_regs()));
+ profile_tick(CPU_PROFILING);
I'd like to move update_process_times()'s use of get_irq_regs() into itself,
except that i386, alone of the archs, uses something other than user_mode().
Some notes on the interrupt handling in the drivers:
(*) input_dev() is now gone entirely. The regs pointer is no longer stored in
the input_dev struct.
(*) finish_unlinks() in drivers/usb/host/ohci-q.c needs checking. It does
something different depending on whether it's been supplied with a regs
pointer or not.
(*) Various IRQ handler function pointers have been moved to type
irq_handler_t.

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.
Let it rip!
