Due to what must've been a copy/paste error many years ago, the license text
for libevdev wasn't actually the MIT license. Let's rectify this, it was
always MIT intended anyway.
To make this more obvious and reduce the chance of copy/paste mistakes, use
the SPDX license identifier in the various source files. The two installed
public header files have the full license text.
All contributors with copyrightable contributions have ACKed the license
change to MIT, either in the MR directly [1] or privately in reply to an
email.

Where at least one touch ends during SYN_DROPPED, we send out two event
frames: one with all applicable touch sequences ending (tracking id -1) and
the second one with the whole device state *and* the applicable touch
sequences starting (tracking id != -1).
This requires us to also update the BTN_TOOL_ bits correctly so that they are
correct after the first frame. For that we count the number of previously
known touches and send a 0 event for the matching BTN_TOOL_ bit, together with
a 1 event for the currently known touches.

For debugging it's more important to be able to quickly run a single test
rather than grouping them together, we don't have thousands of tests here
anyway. So let's add a macro to put every test func into its own TCase,
allowing for test selection via the environment variable CK_RUN_CASE.

With the previous approach, every libevdev_next_event() invocation triggered a
read() on the device fd. This is not efficient, the kernel provides whole
event frames at a time so we're guaranteed to have more events waiting unless
the current event is a SYN_REPORT.
Assuming a fast-enough client and e.g. a touchpad device with multiple axes
per frame, we'd thus trigger several unnecessary read() calls per event frame.
Drop this behavior, instead only trigger the read when our internal queue is
empty and we need more events.
Fallout:
- we don't have any warning about a too-slow sync, i.e. if a SYN_DROPPED
arrives while we're syncing, we don't get a warning in the log anymore.
the test for this was removed.
- the tests that required the specific behavior were rewritten accordingly
- a revoke on a kernel device doesn't return ENODEV until already-received
events have been processed
The above shouldn't be an issue for existing real-world clients.

The kernel ring buffer drops all events on SYN_DROPPED, but then continues to
fill up again. So by the time we read the events, the kernel's client buffer is
essentially like this:
SYN_DROPPED, ev1, ev2, ev3, ...., evN
The kernel's device state represents the device after evN, and that is what
the ioctls return. For EV_KEY, EV_SND, EV_LED and EV_SW the kernel removes
potential duplicates from the client buffer [1], it doesn't do so for EV_ABS.
So we can't actually sync while there are events on the wire because the
events represent an earlier state. So simply discard all events in the kernel
buffer, synchronize, and then start processing again. We lose some granularity
but at least the events are correct.

If the tracking ID changes during SYN_DROPPED, terminate the touch first
In normal mode, we may get double tracking ID events in the same slot, but
only if we either have a user-generated event sequence (uinput) or a malicious
device that tries to send data on a slot > dev->num_slots.
Since the client is unlikely to be able to handle these events, discard the
ABS_MT_TRACKING_ID completely. This is a bug somewhere in the stack, so
complain and hobble on along.
Note: the kernel doesn't allow that, but we cap to num_slots anyway, see
66fee1bec4.

We can't allocate in sync_mt_state since it may be called in the signal
handler. So pre-allocate based on the device's number of slots, store that in
the libevdev struct and use it for the sync process.
This fixes a remaining bug with the handling of ABS_MT_TRACKING_ID. If a
device had > MAX_SLOTS and a slot above that limit would start or stop during
a SYN_DROPPED event, the slot would not be synced, and a subsequent touch in
that slot may double-terminate or double-open a touchpoint in the client.

Most clients can't deal with tracking ID changes unless a -1 is sent first. So
if we notice that the tracking ID has changed during the sync process, send a

the events.

Devices with ABS_MT_SLOT-1 are fake MT devices, they merely overlap the
axis range but don't actually provide slots. The EVIOCGABS ioctl won't work to
retrieve the current value - the kernel does not store values for those axes
and the return value is always 0.
Thus, simply ignore those axes for fake MT devices and instead rely on the
next event to update the caller with the correct state for each axis.

A malicious device may announce N slots but then send a slot index >= N. The
slot state is almost always allocated (definitely the case in libevdev and
true for most callers), so providing a slot number higher than the announced
maximum is likely to lead to invalid dereferences. Don't allow that.
Likewise, don't allow negative slot numbers.
Note that the kernel filters these events anyway, the only way to trigger this
is to change the device fd to something outside the kernel's control.

If the first event after a completed device sync is a SYN_DROPPED, warn the
user that they're not fast enough handling this device.
The test for this is rather complicated since we can't write SYN_DROPPED
through uinput so we have to juggle the device fd and a pipe and switch
between the two at the right time (taking into account that libevdev will read
events from the fd whenever it can).
Signed-off-by: Peter Hutterer <peter.hutterer@who-t.net>
All clients that want to handle SYN_DROPPED correctly need to pass an EV_SYN
through their own handlers before starting with the syn events. Rather than
letting them synthesize that, guarantee that the event is defined the first
time LIBEVDEV_READ_STATUS_SYNC is returned.
This does not change existing behavior, it merely documents it so we can rely
on it.

This way any ABS_MT_ event value that comes in will also be stored in abs_info.
That always corresponds to "current slot", so if a user calls
libevdev_set_event_value() or libevdev_get_event_value() they're actually
modifying the current slot value.
When the current slot changes, sync the state back into the absinfo values.
