Subject: [PATCH] Input: evdev - add ioctl cmd EVIOCGBUFSIZE to get buffer size
Date: Fri, 08 Jan 2016 20:53:08 +0530 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1452266588-3139-1-git-send-email-a.mathur@samsung.com> (raw)
Add ioctl cmd EVIOCGBUFSIZE to get kernel buffer size of device so that
clients can accordingly set the size of userspace buffer and can know
maximum number of events that they are required to read in worst case.
