This button is unusual. On press it emits scanocde 0xe4, on release
0xe5, and when held for a few seconds it begins emitting 0xea about
twice per second. I chose to handle only the press event in order to
make it behave like the other hotkeys.

Probably the closest thing to the intended function of this button
would be to alternate the display orientation between portrait and
landscape, but since there doesn't appear to be a keycode defined for
that function I went with KEY_PROG2. I'm open to other suggestions
however.

Hi,
The manual says that under Windows, this is the "Home Key", so
KEY_HOME would be more appropriate.
Also, it would be great to preserve key up and key down informations
(sparse keymap have an "autorelease" parameter to control that).
Thanks,

The manual does call it the Home Key (I missed previously that the
Express Gate description referred only to the quick boot mode), but the
description of the key operation reads:

  Shortly press this key to launch the Touch Gate touch screen
  interface. Press and hold this key to preview desktop rotation, and
  then release the key to finish desktop rotation.

Which doesn't really sound like a home key to me, and the icon above the
button also suggests display rotation. But then we don't seem to have a
code for that function, so KEY_PROG2 may be no better than KEY_HOME...

Okay, I'll add some special casing for this key to support that. Do you
suggest ignoring the 0xea scan codes?

You may have to add an optional callback for that in asus-wmi's driver
model because it's used by both asus-nb-wmi and eeepc-wmi, and we only
want this behavior for eeepc-wmi.

> Do you suggest ignoring the 0xea scan codes?

Yep, 0xea means "The key is still pressed", but it's useless if we
already repport key down and key up events correctly.
You'll have to ignore this scan code explicitly to remove traces in
dmesg (use KEY_IGNORE).

I have one of these in the mail so I'm interested in outcome.

I suggest implementing as manual describes and can be handled similar
to brightness control logic.

I would suggest sending BTN_HOME upon button release 0xe5 (not press
0xe4 and do the autorelease because of it) and BTN_PROG2 on
press-and-hold 0xea.

If you press-and-hold, does it still send the 0xe5 upon release?  That
could complicate things so that both button events do not get sent.

I'm not sure what BTN_HOME is commonly used for.  This button does
sound like a HOME button in iPad sense but not in web browser sense.

When I mentioned similar to brightness control logic, I meant the
logic in eeepc-laptop and not eeepc-wmi.  It appears to use sparse
keys logic but with some event filtering.

Yes, on press-and-hold you get a sequence like

  e4 ea ea ... ea e5

So there'd have to be some simple state machine there to be sure the
release event was sent for KEY_PROG2.

I haven't used an iPad, but I was assuming on that the home button took
you, well, to the home screen, which is what it does on Android devices.
In my mind that would equate to something like "show desktop" on a
desktop OS, but I guess that's for the desktop designers to decide. In
Windows this one seems to take you to some set up screen, unless you
hold it, in which case it rotates the screen orientation. And I'm
assuming on the press-and-hold you don't see the setup screen before the
rotation, but I never got a chance to experiment with the button under
Windows so I can't say for sure.

Except the fact that I don't find BTN_HOME in inpout.h, that's seems a
better idea, forget what I've said earlier.

0xe4 -> KEY_IGNORE
0xe5 -> KEY_HOME
0xea -> KEY_PROG2, (or BTN_TASK to copy android/iOS ?)

Ha... Sorry, I had buttons on my brain.  I meant KEY_HOME as you suggested.

I've no idea of best values but those are pretty close.

Really? Isn't KEY_HOME the home key on a standard keyboard?

I'm still not sure what key codes are best either. I've implemented this
approach, and I went with BTN_TASK and KEY_PROG2, but I'm getting the
idea that BTN_TASK was intended for a mouse button so I'm not really
sure if it's a good choice or not. I'll follow up with the patches.

Thanks for the feedback so far.

[PATCH 2/2] eeepc-wmi: Add support for T101MT Home/Express Gate key

[Seth Forshee]

This key is different than other hotkeys, having seperate scan
codes for press, release, and hold, so it requires some special
handling.

Note that "Home" in the context of this button doesn't mean the
same thing as the usual Home key, and it really isn't clear at
all what is meant by "Home". The manufacurer's description of the
button indicates that it should launch some sort of touch screen
settings interface on short press and apply a desktop rotation on
long press.

Doh, just noticed that this comment is incorrect. I'll fix it, but I'll
wait for comments before sending new patches.

Why not something simpler like this ?

static void eeepc_wmi_key_filter(struct asus_wmi_driver *asus_wmi, int code,
                                                 int *value, int *autorelease)
{
        if (code == 0xe4) {
                *value = 1;
                *autorelease = 0;
        } else if (code == 0xe5) {
                *value = 0;
                *autorelease = 0;
       }
}

with this keymap :

       { KE_KEY, 0xe4, { KEY_HOME } }, /* Home Key Down */
       { KE_KEY, 0xe5, { KEY_HOME } }, /* Home Key Up */
       { KE_KEY, 0xea, { KEY_PROG2 } }, /* Home Key hold more than one second */


This sounds simpler and we don't loose information (key down and key
up both event reported at the right time).
0xe5 is *always* sent after 0xe4 right ?

Also, for the callback, "value" should be an unsigned int, and
"autorelease" a bool.

Thanks,

I guess it depends on what key events we want on a press-and-hold.
Remember that you're going to get a scan code sequence like "0xe4 0xea
0xea ... 0xea 0xe5", so with my implementation you get

  KEY_PROG2 press
  KEY_PROG2 release

With yours

  KEY_HOME press
  KEY_PROG2 press
  KEY_PROG2 release
  // KEY_PROG2 press/release repeats every 0.5 secs while button held
  KEY_HOME release

At minimum I'd think we'd want to only send a single PROG2 press/release
for button hold. My thought was that you'd only want to get the code for
0xe4 or 0xea, not both, but I suppose that's debatable.

And back to the question of KEY_HOME -- that's not really what you want,
is it? As in "move cursor to start of line"?

Right, silly mistake. Thanks for catching it.

If you keep a keyboard key pressed, you want multiple events, not one right ?
I think it's important not to loose informations. If someone keep this
key pressed more than 1.5 second, I think it's good idea to send
multiple KEY_PROG2.

About KEY_HOME press / release, and filtering KEY_HOME after
KEY_PROG2, I'm not sure. So if you really want it, and nobody
complains, I'll be happy to accept your patch.

> And back to the question of KEY_HOME -- that's not really what you want,

Ho .. right, that's what mean KEY_HOME :/. So no, I don't want that...
What about:
- KEY_CYCLEWINDOWS
- KEY_COMPUTER
- KEY_HOMEPAGE
- KEY_DASHBOARD

I think KEY_HOMEPAGE is the best choice.

Here is how I envision using these keys.  I wanted to map quick press
to GNOME3/KDE4/Unity's Activities menu and map press-and-hold to
script that rotates screen.  I like the repeating of rotates but I
didn't really want a rotate to also force a pop up of the activities
menu.

I've only had limited time to look more.  So far, I found under udev a
toshiba tablet that maps what is probably a rotate button to
KEY_DIRECTION so thats one option for it instead of KEY_PROG2.  I
couldn't find anybody using that though.

I see in /usr/share/X11/symbols/inet:

    key <I162>   {      [ XF86RotateWindows     ]       };

and in /usr/share/X11/xkb/symbols/evdev:

xkb/keycodes/evdev:     <I162> = 162;   // #define KEY_CYCLEWINDOWS        154

Looks like KEY_CYCLEWINDOWS is already hooked up to
gnome-settings-daemon to auto-rotate screen?

I ran into total dead end for finding a pre-existing example of home
button usage.  I'm really surprised we do not yet have a KEY_LAUNCHER
or similar because so many tablet PCs/smartphones/pads do have a
button with this specific concept of "bring up your icon based
application launcher".

To add to your list, I'll also throw out:

- KEY_MENU
- KEY_EXIT (smartphones sometime mean this)
- KEY_PROG3 (basically all that Windows is doing)
- KEY_LAUNCHER (why not be the first to finally create it!)

I vote for either KEY_PROG3 or KEY_HOMEPAGE for at least short term.

I've been experimenting with different keyboards a bit, and I basically
see two different behaviours.

  1. Standard keys and some hotkeys - These tend to send a press event
     followed by a short delay, followed by rapidly-repeating press
     events. I.e. what you normally see when you are typing. For hotkeys
     userspace seems to only act upon the release event.

  2. Some hotkeys only seem to send a single scan code when the key is
     released (this seems to be the case with most of the T101MT
     hotkeys). In these cases the drivers send a press followed
     immediately by a release.

So I'm starting to think that the most natural way to handle this is to
treat it as a single key with a couple of special flags (bit 3 = repeat
event and bit 0 = release event). I.e. we only send on keycode and the
filter code just clears the flag bits, clears autorelease, and decides
whether to send a press or release, if (code & ~0x09) == 0xe4. Then
userspace could map seperate events on press and hold if desired.

In any case I don't think multiple repeat events while the button is
held is the right thing to do.

That seems to map well onto the idea of the Windows button, which iirc
maps to KEY_LEFTMETA or KEY_RIGHMETA.

XF86RotateWindows is probably more "alt-tab" than "rotate screen".

KEY_LAUNCHER sounds like "Alt-F2" (that means krunner on KDE).
The advantage over KEY_HOMEPAGE is that it would work even when a
browser have the focus.

So now, I vote (in order):
- KEY_LAUNCHER
- KEY_DASHBOARD
- KEY_PROG3

With this behavior (I'll use KEY_LAUCHER and KEY_PROG2)

- On press, do nothing
- On release, emit KEY_LAUNCHER if KEY_PROG2 wasn't emited
- On press, emit only one  KEY_PROG2 (I'd like to emit repeated
KEY_PROG2, but I understand that it makes things harder for
userspace).

Not in the kernel. It is a single button and should generate single
event. Have userspace decipher that pressing it once causes application
launcher to appear, holding it longer causes screen rotation, and if you
still keep it pressed for 10 minutes fireworks will start.

It is 'Home' key on your full AT keyboard, normally making cursor to
move to the very first column on the line.

I thinks it's the same as KEY_CYCLEWINDOWS (there are little windows
on the button).

You can have input autorepeat facilities do that for you. If you want to
do this yourself then the proper value for repeated events is _2_, not
1, or they will be dropped as duplicates.

No, KEY_HOMEPAGE should cause your browser to go to your home page. What
you want is either:

#define KEY_CONFIG         171     /* AL Consumer Control Configuration */
#define KEY_DASHBOARD      204     /* AL Dashboard */

("AL" stands for "Application Launcher", "AC" for 'Application Control",
matched loosely to HUT tables).

Gnome at least seems to handle it by doing a screen rotation.

I have a keyboard that emit repeated press events for hotkeys, so I
think userspace can handle this. It just waits for the release before
doing anything, so as long as it's multiple press events and a single
release I think we're okay.

Since it seems KEY_CYCLEWINDOWS might actually accomplish what a hold is
intended to do, I think I'll proceed with the following slightly amended
version of your plan.

 - On press, do nothing
 - On hold, emit KEY_CYCLEWINDOWS repeatedly
 - On release, emit KEY_LAUNCHER w/ autorelease if KEY_CYCLEWINDOWS
   wasn't released, else emit KEY_CYCLEWINDOWS release

Assuming of course that Dmitry agrees that adding KEY_LAUNCHER makes
sense.

Dmitry,

I didn't see you responses before my last response, so you can ignore
it. Let me make sure I understand correctly. For reference, the button
in question sends an 0xe4 scancode on press, repeated 0xea scancodes on
hold, and 0xe5 on release.

So, would the following make sense (KEY_TBD is may abbreviation for "key
to be determinded"):

 - On press (0xe4), send KEY_TBD, value = 1
 - On hold (0xea), send KEY_TBD, value = 2
 - On release (0xe5), send KEY_TBD, value = 0

Also, is KEY_CYCLEWINDOWS intended to imply screen rotation, or
something else?

Thanks,
Seth

Hmm, it was added way before my time. I'd expect it to have an action

There's a little problem with this. The driver uses sparse-keymap, which
calls input_report_key(), which is doing this:

	input_event(dev, EV_KEY, code, !!value);

I don't see the hold events in userspace, so they must be getting
dropped as duplicates as you suggested.

I'm not sure who is at fault here. Should input_report_key() not be
forcing value to 0 or 1? Or should sparse-keymap be calling
input_event() directly? Or is sparse-keymap the wrong tool for handling
keys this way?

Ah, right, it really did not have in mind passing on auto-repeating keys
as is when it was written.

I do not thik we shoudl burden sparse-keymap with handling repeats. Just
mark the device as auto-repeating (by setting EV_REP bit) and let input
core autorepeat logic do it for you.

It would be nice to have this key sent roughly every 2 seconds to
re-execute a rotate script using generic key-to-script support in most
X environments.  So to use kernel auto-repeat we'd need to bump up
REP_DELAY quite a bit or do filtering in userspace.  If userspace is
filtering then its not much more work to do their own auto-repeat as
well.

If we do set up auto-repeat and increase REP_DELAY, I'm guessing this
would enable auto-repeat for all other keys defined in driver?  That
needs to have some thought on if could have negative impact (any other
keys not using auto-release?).

That is true as well.

Right. Right now there are 4 autoreprat options (in general):

- hardware autorepeat (if hardware supports it);
- input core software autorepeat (one delay and rate per input device);
- driver-implemented software autorepeat - in cases when different
  repeat rate is needed;
- userspace autorepeat (like X does nowadays);

Well, 4th option is not mutually exclusive with the other 3...

Currently all the other keys are using autorelease, so the autorepeat
setting shouldn't be affecting them at all. So the concern is whether
enabling autorepeat could become a problem the next time some oddball
key shows up on a machine.

Corentin, you were concerned about the loss of information to userspace,
but it seems the only way to maintain the hardware events is to drop the
use of sparse-keymap altogether. Do you have an opinion on how to
proceed?

I'm leaning towards using the input core autorepeat, since it seems to
get the closest to typical key behavior.

As far as I know, the only key that could be like that (not yet
mapped, but I've seen it somewhere) is a "Camera Autofocus Key". For
this key we don't really care about "repeating", we just need to send
"press" and "release" events correctly, and userspace will keep
adjusting the autofocus while the key is pressed.

I really don't think dropping sparse-keymap for a single key on a
single model is a good idea.

On my side I'd have used another keycode for 0xea events, and reported
press and release events as they come, since it's more a "two-in-one"
key than a key with hardware autorepeat.

But since Dmitry and Chris seems to prefer the autorepeat approach
with a single key code, if it works then it's ok, we just need to set
REP_DELAY, report press and release events, and drop 0xea events.

New patches follow. I didn't set REP_DELAY (or REP_PERIOD) because the
input core interprets this to mean that the driver will handle the
autorepeat itself. There's always EVIOCSREP to change the delay and
repeat period from userspace.

Changes since v2:

 - Fixed incorrect types of key_filter() arguments
 - Use a single key code, KEY_CONFIG, for this button
 - Simplify filtering to only emit events for press and release
 - Added a patch to enable autorepeat for hotkey input device

This is required for the T101MT home key, which behaves differently

[PATCH v3 2/3] eeepc-wmi: Add support for T101MT Home/Express Gate key

[Seth Forshee]

This key is different than other hotkeys, having seperate scan
codes for press, release, and hold, so it requires some special
filtering. Press and release events are passed on, and hold events
are ignored since sparse-keymap does not support hardware
autorepeat.

Note that "Home" in the context of this button doesn't mean the
same thing as the usual Home key, and it really isn't clear at
all what is meant by "Home". The manufacurer's description of the
button indicates that it should launch some sort of touch screen
settings interface on short press and apply a desktop rotation on
long press.

[PATCH v3 3/3] asus-wmi: Enable autorepeat for hotkey input device

[Seth Forshee]

The T101MT Home/Express Gate key autorepeats in hardware, but
sparse-keymap does not support hardware autorepeat. Enable the
input core's software autorepeat to emulate the hardware behavior.
Normal hotkeys are autoreleased, so the behavior of these keys
will not be affected.

Just an FYI: it is perfectly fine to set custom REP_DELAY and REP_PERIOD
after registering an input device.

Thanks.

What X11 key is mapped to KEY_CONFIG ?

I think this version is ok,

Matthew, do you think this should be delayed for 2.6.40 (merge window
will close soon, so now it's probably time for fix only) ?

XF86Tools.

I'm still not 100% confident in that choice though. It's one of the two
suggested by Dmitry. The other (KEY_DASHBOARD) only seems to be used for
the key on Mac keyboards that displays the OS X dashboard, which is some
kind of widget overlay on top of the desktop.

The other option I considered was KEY_CYCLEWINDOWS, which maps to
XF86RotateWindows. No one seemed to know for sure what its intended
purpose is, but in some cases at least it appears to be used to rotate
the desktop.

Yeah, I'd lean towards this being .40 material.

Seth, I've added your (rebased) patch to my tree, I'll re-send them
with others for .40.
Thanks !
