Michael Poole 128537cea4 HID: add a device driver for the Apple Magic Mouse.
The Magic Mouse requires that a driver send an unlock Report(Feature) command,
similar to the Wacom wireless tablet and Sixaxis controller quirks.  This turns
on an Input Report that isn't published in the input Report descriptor that
contains touch data (and usually overrides the normal motion and click Report).

Because the mouse has only one switch and no scroll wheel, the driver
(under control of parameters) emulates a middle button and scroll wheel.
User space could also ignore and/or re-synthesize those events based on
the reported events.

Some user-space tools to talk to the mouse directly (that is, when it is not
associated with the host's HIDP stack) are at
http://github.com/entrope/linux-magicmouse

Michael Poole 90a006abf8 HID: Export hid_register_report
The Apple Magic Mouse (and probably other devices) publish reports that are not
called out in their HID report descriptors -- they only send them when enabled
through other writes to the device.  This allows a driver to handle these
unlisted reports.

Jiri Kosina 4bb9508bbb HID: remove TENX iBuddy from blacklist
There were multiple reports which indicate that vendor messed up horribly
and the same VID/PID combination is used for completely different devices,
some of them requiring the blacklist entry and other not.

Remove the blacklist entry for this combination of VID/PID completely, and let
the user decide and unbind the driver via sysfs eventually, if needed. Proper
fix would be fixing the vendor.

Jiri Kosina cd667ce247 HID: use debugfs for events/reports dumping
This is a followup patch to the one implemeting rdesc representation in debugfs
rather than being dependent on compile-time CONFIG_HID_DEBUG setting.

The API of the appropriate formatting functions is slightly modified -- if
they are passed seq_file pointer, the one-shot output for 'rdesc' file mode
is used, and therefore the message is formatted into the corresponding seq_file
immediately.

Otherwise the called function allocated a new buffer, formats the text into the
buffer and returns the pointer to it, so that it can be queued into the ring-buffer
of the processess blocked waiting on input on 'events' file in debugfs.

'debug' parameter to the 'hid' module is now used solely for the prupose of inetrnal
driver state debugging (parser, transport, etc).

Jiri Kosina a635f9dd83 HID: use debugfs for report dumping descriptor
It is a little bit inconvenient for people who have some non-standard
HID hardware (usually violating the HID specification) to have to
recompile kernel with CONFIG_HID_DEBUG to be able to see kernel's perspective
of the HID report descriptor and observe the parsed events. Plus the messages
are then mixed up inconveniently with the rest of the dmesg stuff.

This patch implements /sys/kernel/debug/hid/<device>/rdesc file, which
represents the kernel's view of report descriptor (both the raw report
descriptor data and parsed contents).

With all the device-specific debug data being available through debugfs, there
is no need for keeping CONFIG_HID_DEBUG, as the 'debug' parameter to the
hid module will now only output only driver-specific debugging options, which has
absolutely minimal memory footprint, just a few error messages and one global
flag (hid_debug).

We use the current set of output formatting functions. The ones that need to be
used both for one-shot rdesc seq_file and also for continuous flow of data
(individual reports, as being sent by the device) distinguish according to the
passed seq_file parameter, and if it is NULL, it still output to kernel ringbuffer,
otherwise the corresponding seq_file is used for output.

The format of the output is preserved.

Oliver Neukum 0361a28d3f HID: autosuspend support for USB HID
This uses the USB busy mechanism for aggessive autosuspend of USB
HID devices. It autosuspends all opened devices supporting remote wakeup
after a timeout unless

- output is being done to the device
- a key is being held down (remote wakeup isn't triggered upon key release)
- LED(s) are lit
- hiddev is opened

As in the current driver closed devices will be autosuspended even if they
don't support remote wakeup.

The patch is quite large because output to devices is done in hard interrupt
context meaning a lot a queuing and locking had to be touched. The LED stuff
has been solved by means of a simple counter. Additions to the generic HID code
could be avoided. In addition it now covers hidraw. It contains an embryonic
version of an API to let the generic HID code tell the lower levels which
capabilities with respect to power management are needed.

Michael Tokarev 35cfd1d964 HID: blacklist Powercom USB UPS
For quite some time users with various UPSes from Powercom were forced to play
magic with bind/unbind in /sys in order to be able to see the UPSes.  The
beasts does not work as HID devices, even if claims to do so.  cypress_m8
driver works with the devices instead, creating a normal serial port with which
normal UPS controlling software works.

The manufacturer confirmed the upcoming models with proper HID support will
have different device IDs.  In any way, it's wrong to have two completely
different modules for one device in kernel.

Blacklist the device in HID (add it to hid_ignore_list) to stop this mess,
finally.
