This allows the backend to propery initialize the feedback from options,
as it works with most other drivers. This is the hacky equivalent of
fixing the initialization of pointer acceleration, which would require
changes to most drivers however.

Touchpads that have physical buttons have either LMR or BTN_TOOL_FINGER.
Other buttons in the range evdev recognises shouldn't be taken into account
here - they skew the detection towards touchpads and away from touchscreens.

Because touchscreens only use one button (see EvdevProcessKeyEvent())
EvdevMBEmuFilterEvent() never calls EvdevMBEmuEnable(..., FALSE) to
disable emulation. This results in touchscreen devices incurring a delay
of Emulate3Timeout (typically 50 ms.)
Default to MBEMU_DISABLED for touchscreen devices (unless overwritten by
Xorg.conf.)

When the SwapAxes option is set, the X and Y axes in calibration should
be labelled as the user perceives them -- not as the kernel sends them.
Currently, we apply the X-axis calibration to the X-axis of the input,
and then do the axis swapping so we've actually applied the X-axis
calibration to what the user sees as the Y-axis.
This patch changes the order of the operations, so that the axes are
swapped before the calibration is applied.

We should process all the deltas reported by a relative motion device,
otherwise some devices such as A4Tech X-750F or similar may trigger a
situation when the `v` array contains random values (it isn't
initialized anywhere) and later we process them and in effect the mouse

I'm not sure why, but we also must be sure that the `first` and `last`
variables reflect the axis map, otherwise the mouse cursor "jumps" on
the screen when clicking mouse buttons in some rare cases reported by
Bartek Iwaniec on Bugzilla. That's why a simple initialization of the
`v` array with zeros isn't sufficient.

When checking whether we are dealing with the same device as before
when we try to reopen it evdev should not require exact match of
entire keymap. Users should be allowed to adjust keymaps to better
match their hardware even after X starts. However we don't expect
changes in [BTN_MISC, KEY_OK) range since these codes are reserved for
mice, joysticks, tablets and so forth, so we will limit the check to
this range.
The same goes for absinfo - limits can change and it should not result
in device being disabled.
Also check the length of the data returned by ioctl and don't try to
compare more than we were given.

Parsing of the values was wrong. Given an input of 1 2 3 4, button 1 sets

This also means we need to return BadMatch if the property isn't a multiple

The Xen Virtual Pointer device exports both absolute and relative axes from
the kernel device. Which coordinates are used is a run-time decision and
depends on the host-specific configuration.
0a3657d2ee broke these devices, and they are
now unusable out-of-the-box as there is no configuration to cover them.
This patch converts the IgnoreAbsoluteAxes and the IgnoreRelativeAxes
configuration options into a trinary state.
1. If unset, configure the device as normal by trying to guess the right
axis setup.
2. If set to true, ignore the specific axis type completely (except for
wheel events).
3. If set to false, explicitly 'unignore' the axis type, alwas configuring
it if it is present on the device. This setting introduces seemingly
buggy behaviour (see Bug 21832)
1. and 2. replicate the current driver behaviour.
The result of 3. is that is that if a device has absolute axes and the
options set to false, both axes will be initialized (absolute last to get
clipping right). This requires axis labelling priorty to switch from
relative first to absolute first.
Relative events are forwarded into the server through the absolute axes,
the server scales this into the device absolute range and everyone is happy.

If a read error occurs, remove the block and wakeup handlers for middle

this happened, future removal of the device can lead to a server crash.

The X server cannot deal with devices that have both relative and absolute
axes. Evdev tries to guess wich axes to ignore given the device type and
disables absolute axes for mice and relative axes for tablets, touchscreens
and touchpad. This guess is sometimes wrong and causes exitus felis
domesticae parvulae.
Two new configuration options are provided to explicitly allow ignoring an
axis. Mouse wheel axes are exempt and will work even if relative axes are
ignored. No property, this option must be set in the configuration.

Regression:
If a user has multiple buttons mapped to the same button number, the
number of buttons counted is set to a wrong value. e.g. a button
mapping of 1 1 1 for a mouse with three buttons would only initialize 1
button to the X server.
In the future, the user cannot change this button mapping as the server
only knows about one button.
The user-supplied button map (option ButtonMapping) shouldn't matter when
counting the buttons. Only the driver-internal mapping (BTN_0 -> button 1,
etc.) matters.

Wheel emulation works for both horizontal and vertical axes. Thus, if a
device doesn't move in perfect straight line, scroll events build up on the
respective other axis.
In some clients, scroll wheel events have specific meanings other than
scrolling (e.g. mplayer). In these clients, erroneous scrolling events come
at a high cost.
Thus, if a scroll wheel event is generated for one axis, reset the inertia
of the other axis to 0, avoiding the buildup of these erroneous scrolling
events.

The previous checks for BTN_TOOL_FINGER and BTN_TOUCH reported false

The wheel emulation code needs this API. When the timer expires, the event
must be posted immediately, not enqueued onto the internal event queue.
Otherwise, the emulated middle button press is enqueued only and no event is
sent until the next physical event (and its EV_SYN) arrives.
Since the timer is triggered outside of the SIGIO and SIGIO is blocked
during this period anyway, we could also just enqueue the event and flush by
simulating an EV_SYN. It's easier this way though.

The relevant comment from evdev.c:
We don't allow relative and absolute axes on the same device. The
reason is that some devices (MS Optical Desktop 2000) register both
rel and abs axes for x/y.
The abs axes register min/max; this min/max then also applies to the
relative device (the mouse) and caps it at 0..255 for both axes.
So, unless you have a small screen, you won't be enjoying it much;
consequently, absolute axes are generally ignored.
However, currenly only a device with absolute axes can be registered
as a touch{pad,screen}. Thus, given such a device, absolute axes are
used and relative axes are ignored.
The code for initializing abs/rel axes has been abstracted out into
3 functions, so that initialization in EvdevInit(device) is as easy
as:
if (pEvdev->flags & (EVDEV_TOUCHPAD | EVDEV_TOUCHSCREEN))
EvdevInitTouchDevice(device, pEvdev);
else if (pEvdev->flags & EVDEV_RELATIVE_EVENTS)
EvdevInitRelClass(device, pEvdev);
else if (pEvdev->flags & EVDEV_ABSOLUTE_EVENTS)
EvdevInitAbsClass(device, pEvdev);

This is similar to commit 1f641d75ed.
It provides the same functionality of queuing the (in this case
emulated) events and waiting until an EV_SYN synchronization event is
received before posting them to the server.
This preserves the order of events (both real and emulated) and ensures
that MotionNotify events will always be posted first. It also unifies
the event posting into a few small functions which improves
maintainability.
From this point on, you should never use the xf86Post...Event()
functions in new code, but rather the EvdevPost...Event() versions.

Instead of just posting the button/key press/release events to the
server as soon as they arrive, add them to an internal queue and post
them once we receive an EV_SYN synchronization event.
The motion events are always sent first, followed by the queued events.
There will be one motion event and possibly many queued button/key
events posted every EV_SYN event.
Note that the size of the event queue (EVDEV_MAXQUEUE) is arbitrary and
you may change it. If we receive more events than the queue can handle,
those events are dropped and a warning message printed.
Tested on my Lenovo T400 using evdev for all input devices; keyboard,
touchpad, and trackpoint.
