OK, thanks for the explanation.

Given that the device sends one report every 20 millisecs, you end up at the exact same 0.1 seconds of delay, which makes me wonder about the usefulness of the patch. > > > What should be the expected kernel ouput? > > > > Well, ideally: > https://gist.github.com/semihalf-czubak-angela/4dd52c177372f8f0c2b4e5ada841ea95 > > So what helps is if > > Event: time 1643827301.463888, type 3 (EV_ABS), code 53 > (ABS_MT_POSITION_X), value 4817 > Event: time 1643827301.463888, type 3 (EV_ABS), code 54 > (ABS_MT_POSITION_Y), value 777 > Event: time 1643827301.463888, type 3 (EV_ABS), code 0 (ABS_X), value 4817 > Event: time 1643827301.463888, type 3 (EV_ABS), code 1 (ABS_Y), value 777 > Event: time 1643827301.463888, type 4 (EV_MSC), code 5 > (MSC_TIMESTAMP), value 408000 > Event: time 1643827301.463888, -------------- SYN_REPORT ------------ > Event: time 1643827301.479920, type 4 (EV_MSC), code 5 > (MSC_TIMESTAMP), value 416000 > Event: time 1643827301.479920, -------------- SYN_REPORT ------------ > Event: time 1643827301.496921, type 4 (EV_MSC), code 5 > (MSC_TIMESTAMP), value 424000 > Event: time 1643827301.496921, -------------- SYN_REPORT ------------ > Event: time 1643827301.517923, type 4 (EV_MSC), code 5 > (MSC_TIMESTAMP), value 432000 > Event: time 1643827301.517923, -------------- SYN_REPORT ------------ > Event: time 1643827301.535920, type 4 (EV_MSC), code 5 > (MSC_TIMESTAMP), value 440000 > Event: time 1643827301.535920, -------------- SYN_REPORT ------------ > Event: time 1643827301.554943, type 3 (EV_ABS), code 57 > (ABS_MT_TRACKING_ID), value -1 > Event: time 1643827301.554943, type 1 (EV_KEY), code 330 (BTN_TOUCH), value 0 > Event: time 1643827301.554943, type 4 (EV_MSC), code 5 > (MSC_TIMESTAMP), value 448000 > Event: time 1643827301.554943, -------------- SYN_REPORT ------------ > > becomes > > Event: time 1643827301.463888, type 3 (EV_ABS), code 53 > (ABS_MT_POSITION_X), value 4817 > Event: time 1643827301.463888, type 3 (EV_ABS), code 54 > (ABS_MT_POSITION_Y), value 777 > Event: time 1643827301.463888, type 3 (EV_ABS), code 0 (ABS_X), value 4817 > Event: time 1643827301.463888, type 3 (EV_ABS), code 1 (ABS_Y), value 777 > Event: time 1643827301.463888, type 4 (EV_MSC), code 5 > (MSC_TIMESTAMP), value 408000 > Event: time 1643827301.463888, -------------- SYN_REPORT ------------ > Event: time 1643827301.479920, type 3 (EV_ABS), code 57 > (ABS_MT_TRACKING_ID), value -1 > Event: time 1643827301.479920, type 1 (EV_KEY), code 330 (BTN_TOUCH), value 0 > Event: time 1643827301.479920, type 4 (EV_MSC), code 5 > (MSC_TIMESTAMP), value 416000 > Event: time 1643827301.479920, -------------- SYN_REPORT ------------ Well, here, the timestamp says that you want the touch to come as soon as there are 2 identical values, because it comes right after the last modified event.

You can also use input_mt_get_value() and compare with the current value before sending the value to the input stack. This way you do not need to store the values once again. > > > > > + > > > > struct mt_application { > > > > struct list_head list; > > > > unsigned int application; > > > > unsigned int report_id; > > > > struct list_head mt_usages; /* mt usages list */ > > > > > > > > + struct mt_slot_state *mt_slot_state; > > > > + > > > > __s32 quirks; > > > > > > > > __s32 *scantime; /* scantime reported */ > > > > @@ -116,6 +127,11 @@ struct mt_application { > > > > > > > > __s32 *raw_cc; /* contact count in the report */ > > > > int left_button_state; /* left button state */ > > > > + bool touch_change; /* if touch change detected */ > > > > + bool touched; /* if touch was present in the last > > > > + * message > > > > + */ > > > > So this is not per-touch, but per report? > > > > I suppose it is actually per report, it is just that implementation > per slot seemed easier. > I could not reproduce the issue when using two fingers. Which makes a lot of sense: when you still have one finger on the screen, the sensitive sensors are way much capable of detecting ghosts because they have a baseline to compare too. So I would suggest you enable that code only when you have 1 finger left and that this finger is still. > > > > > + int repeated_counter; /* how many times last frame repeated */ > > > > unsigned int mt_flags; /* flags to pass to input-mt */ > > > > > > > > unsigned long *pending_palm_slots; /* slots where we reported palm > > > > @@ -211,6 +227,7 @@ static void mt_post_parse(struct mt_device *td, struct mt_application *app); > > > > #define MT_CLS_GOOGLE 0x0111 > > > > #define MT_CLS_RAZER_BLADE_STEALTH 0x0112 > > > > #define MT_CLS_SMART_TECH 0x0113 > > > > +#define MT_CLS_ILITEK_016x 0x0114 > > > > > > > > #define MT_DEFAULT_MAXCONTACT 10 > > > > #define MT_MAX_MAXCONTACT 250 > > > > @@ -386,6 +403,15 @@ static const struct mt_class mt_classes[] = { > > > > MT_QUIRK_CONTACT_CNT_ACCURATE | > > > > MT_QUIRK_SEPARATE_APP_REPORT, > > > > }, > > > > + { .name = MT_CLS_ILITEK_016x, > > > > + .quirks = MT_QUIRK_ALWAYS_VALID | > > > > + MT_QUIRK_IGNORE_DUPLICATES | > > > > + MT_QUIRK_HOVERING | > > > > + MT_QUIRK_CONTACT_CNT_ACCURATE | > > > > + MT_QUIRK_STICKY_FINGERS | > > > > + MT_QUIRK_WIN8_PTP_BUTTONS | > > > > + MT_QUIRK_DROP_REPEATED_SLOT, > > > > + .export_all_inputs = true }, > > > > { } > > > > }; > > > > > > > > @@ -783,7 +809,8 @@ static int mt_touch_input_mapping(struct hid_device *hdev, struct hid_input *hi, > > > > case HID_DG_CONFIDENCE: > > > > if ((cls->name == MT_CLS_WIN_8 || > > > > cls->name == MT_CLS_WIN_8_FORCE_MULTI_INPUT || > > > > - cls->name == MT_CLS_WIN_8_DISABLE_WAKEUP) && > > > > + cls->name == MT_CLS_WIN_8_DISABLE_WAKEUP || > > > > + cls->name == MT_CLS_ILITEK_016x) && > > > > Not something you should care about, but this long test of spaghetti > > should likely be fixed into something way better at some point... > > > > > > (field->application == HID_DG_TOUCHPAD || > > > > field->application == HID_DG_TOUCHSCREEN)) > > > > app->quirks |= MT_QUIRK_CONFIDENCE; > > > > @@ -948,7 +975,13 @@ static void mt_sync_frame(struct mt_device *td, struct mt_application *app, > > > > input_event(input, EV_KEY, BTN_LEFT, app->left_button_state); > > > > > > > > input_mt_sync_frame(input); > > > > - input_event(input, EV_MSC, MSC_TIMESTAMP, app->timestamp); > > > > + if (app->quirks & MT_QUIRK_DROP_REPEATED_SLOT) { > > > > + if (app->touch_change) > > > > + input_event(input, EV_MSC, MSC_TIMESTAMP, app->timestamp); > > > > + app->touch_change = false; > > > > Why filter out the timestamp? > > > > I suppose lonely timestamps should not do any harm, I just wanted to > avoid evtest etc. output > where there is no change but the timestamp, it is kind of also > remainder of my first approach where > I just tried filtering this events out and see waiting for BTN_TOUCH=0 > and ABS_MT_TRACKING_ID=-1 > would be enough (it wasn't). So I wouldn't filter out the timestamps.

Yes, but see my remark above. Given that the input stack already caches the values and that it is validated by the evdev recording you shared, you should be able to apply the quirk just before calling the various input_event() and comparing the current value of this last finger with the ones in the input stack. This way, you do not need to keep tabs on the various fingers. > > > > > + > > > > static int mt_process_slot(struct mt_device *td, struct input_dev *input, > > > > struct mt_application *app, > > > > struct mt_usages *slot) > > > > @@ -1005,6 +1092,7 @@ static int mt_process_slot(struct mt_device *td, struct input_dev *input, > > > > int active; > > > > int slotnum; > > > > int tool = MT_TOOL_FINGER; > > > > + struct mt_slot_state state = {0}; > > > > > > > > if (!slot) > > > > return -EINVAL; > > > > @@ -1058,13 +1146,42 @@ static int mt_process_slot(struct mt_device *td, struct input_dev *input, > > > > * lift-off as userspace will not be aware > > > > * of non-confidence, so we need to split > > > > * it into 2 events: active MT_TOOL_PALM > > > > - * and a separate liftoff. > > > > + * and a separate lift off. > > > > */ > > > > active = true; > > > > set_bit(slotnum, app->pending_palm_slots); > > > > } > > > > } > > > > > > > > + if (app->quirks & MT_QUIRK_DROP_REPEATED_SLOT) { > > > > + mt_fill_slot_state(&state, slot); > > > > + /* Check if every field in the slot is the same as before. > > > > + * Some touchscreens report the same position for several > > > > + * frames even though the finger is no longer on the surface. > > > > + * This is actually being recognised as the finger remaining in > > > > + * one position, which causes scrolling to be stopped. > > > > + * Ignore such packets so that the scrolling continues > > > > + * and the touchscreen reports the finger liftoff. > > > > That part I understand better, but how is the device reporting such events? > > If the touch is no longer there, we should have a bit that says it is > > lifted, so we should simply just ignore the touch, no? > > > > Well, I would actually like the touch panel manufacturers to answer that :-) > Based on some comments in our source code it seems that some devices > might delay synthesis of lift-off to reduce risks of noisy release, but I am not > sure if it explains why they produce events in between. They produce events in between because they have to, or they are not following the spec :) I also think the main reason is that if they forget about sending an event *and* that the touch continues to move after a few events, they will see a release happening on the touch because that's what STICKY_FINGER does (it's a copy of the behaviour from Windows FWIW). > > > > > > > + */ > > > > + if (!mt_is_slot_state_equal(&state, > > > > + &app->mt_slot_state[slotnum])) { > > > > + app->touch_change |= (active || > > > > + app->mt_slot_state[slotnum].tip_state); > > > > + app->repeated_counter = 0; > > > > + } else { > > > > +#define MT_MAX_REPEATED_DROPPED 5 > > > > + if (app->repeated_counter < MT_MAX_REPEATED_DROPPED) { > > > > + active = false; > > > > + if (app->touched) > > > > + app->touch_change = true; > > > > + } else { > > > > + app->touch_change = true; > > > > + } > > > > + app->repeated_counter++; > > > > This is specific to one device, but I have seen device filtering in > > hardware that reports the same steady data as long as the touch is > > present.

All 3 (or 4 maybe) recordings you shared showed that we received only 5 duplications of events. So there is a case to be made around whether we need this patch. What would be interesting is whether you can "emulate" that situation without releasing the finger. If the raw data is noisy (to some extent of course) and it's hard to have exactly twice the same sample for a touch, then maybe we can assume that as soon as we get identical values we can release. Maybe the false positive in that situation would be better handled by the user that missing the fling. > > > Also, we do have devices which tend to forget to release slots, and > > that's why we have MT_QUIRK_STICKY_FINGERS which release touches after > > a while. > > Yeah, but the thing is that this specific device actually reports that > the finger is still there, > even though the finger has been lifted :-) > I believe that MT_QUIRK_STICKY_FINGERS works when the device somehow > fails to send a new report > within some time after the previous one, so it does not solve the issue for us. It's not exactly the same case, but it still feels similar enough to maybe be reused. Can you please give a shot at the following patch (and change the value of MT_MAX_REPEATED_DROPPED between 1 to 5)? It doesn't use MT_QUIRK_STICKY_FINGERS but should be simnilar to what you have here in a shorter version. --- diff --git a/drivers/hid/hid-multitouch.c b/drivers/hid/hid-multitouch.c index 0dece608c023..cff4088e564a 100644 --- a/drivers/hid/hid-multitouch.c +++ b/drivers/hid/hid-multitouch.c @@ -77,6 +77,8 @@ MODULE_LICENSE("GPL"); #define MT_BUTTONTYPE_CLICKPAD 0 +#define MT_MAX_REPEATED_DROPPED 3 + enum latency_mode { HID_LATENCY_NORMAL = 0, HID_LATENCY_HIGH = 1, @@ -128,6 +130,7 @@ struct mt_application { * 1 means we should use a serial protocol * > 1 means hybrid (multitouch) protocol */ + unsigned int repeated_touches; /* used when MT_QUIRK_DROP_REPEATED_SLOT */ __s32 dev_time; /* the scan time provided by the device */ unsigned long jiffies; /* the frame's jiffies */ @@ -1065,6 +1068,19 @@ static int mt_process_slot(struct mt_device *td, struct input_dev *input, } } + /* TODO: add test for the new quirk so we don't apply this for all devices */ + if (active && app->num_expected == 1) { + struct input_mt_slot *i_slot = &mt->slots[slotnum]; + + if (input_mt_get_value(i_slot, ABS_MT_POSITION_X) == *slot->x && + input_mt_get_value(i_slot, ABS_MT_POSITION_Y) == *slot->y) { + if (++app->repeated_touches >= MT_MAX_REPEATED_DROPPED) + active = false; + } else { + app->repeated_touches = 0; + } + } + input_mt_slot(input, slotnum); input_mt_report_slot_state(input, tool, active); if (active) { --- Cheers, Benjamin > > > > > > > > > > + } > > > > + app->touched = active; > > > > + app->mt_slot_state[slotnum] = state; > > > > + } > > > > input_mt_slot(input, slotnum); > > > > input_mt_report_slot_state(input, tool, active); > > > > if (active) { > > > > @@ -1296,6 +1413,18 @@ static int mt_touch_input_configured(struct hid_device *hdev, > > > > if (!app->pending_palm_slots) > > > > return -ENOMEM; > > > > > > > > + if (app->quirks & MT_QUIRK_DROP_REPEATED_SLOT) { > > > > + app->mt_slot_state = devm_kcalloc(&hi->input->dev, > > > > + td->maxcontacts, > > > > + sizeof(*app->mt_slot_state), > > > > + GFP_KERNEL); > > > > + if (!app->mt_slot_state) > > > > + return -ENOMEM; > > > > + mt_clear_slot_states(app->mt_slot_state, td->maxcontacts); > > > > + app->repeated_counter = 0; > > > > + } > > > > + > > > > + > > > > ret = input_mt_init_slots(input, td->maxcontacts, app->mt_flags); > > > > if (ret) > > > > return ret; > > > > @@ -1676,6 +1805,12 @@ static void mt_release_contacts(struct hid_device *hid) > > > > > > > > list_for_each_entry(application, &td->applications, list) { > > > > application->num_received = 0; > > > > + if (application->quirks & MT_QUIRK_DROP_REPEATED_SLOT) { > > > > + application->touch_change = false; > > > > + mt_clear_slot_states(application->mt_slot_state, > > > > + td->maxcontacts); > > > > + application->repeated_counter = 0; > > > > + } > > > > } > > > > } > > > > > > > > @@ -2014,6 +2149,15 @@ static const struct hid_device_id mt_devices[] = { > > > > MT_USB_DEVICE(USB_VENDOR_ID_ILITEK, > > > > USB_DEVICE_ID_ILITEK_MULTITOUCH) }, > > > > > > > > + /* Ilitek 106E/F touchscreen */ > > > > + { .driver_data = MT_CLS_ILITEK_016x, > > > > + HID_DEVICE(HID_BUS_ANY, HID_GROUP_MULTITOUCH_WIN_8, > > > > + USB_VENDOR_ID_ILITEK, USB_DEVICE_ID_ILITEK_016E) }, > > > > + > > > > + { .driver_data = MT_CLS_ILITEK_016x, > > > > + HID_DEVICE(HID_BUS_ANY, HID_GROUP_MULTITOUCH_WIN_8, > > > > + USB_VENDOR_ID_ILITEK, USB_DEVICE_ID_ILITEK_016F) }, > > > > + > > > > /* LG Melfas panel */ > > > > { .driver_data = MT_CLS_LG, > > > > HID_USB_DEVICE(USB_VENDOR_ID_LG, > > > > -- > > > > 2.35.1.1021.g381101b075-goog > > > > > > > > > > > Cheers, > > Benjamin > > > > [0] https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/libevdev/hid-tools > > >
