Tools default to 1% lower threshold (tip up) and 5% upper threshold (tip
down). But our distance vs pressure exclusion would reset the distance
for *any* pressure value, regardless how low that value was and how high
distance was in comparison.
A very low pressure value of less than 1% would then result in a
normalized pressure of 0, so we'd effectively just reset the distance to
zero and do nothing with the pressure. This can cause distance jumps
when the tool arbitrarily sends low pressure values while hovering as
seen in https://github.com/libsdl-org/SDL/pull/5481#issuecomment-1118969064
Commit 61bdc05fb0 from Dec 2017
"tablet: set the tip-up pressure threshold to 1%"
was presumably to address this but no longer (?) works.
Fix this by addressing multiple issues at the same time:
- anything under that 1% threshold is now considered as zero pressure
and any distance value is kept as-is. Once pressure reaches 1%,
distance is always zero.
- axis normalization is now from 1% to 100% (previously: upper threshold
to 100%). So a tip down event should always have ~4% pressure and we
may get tablet motion events with nonzero pressure before the tip down
event.
From memory, this was always intended anyway since a tip event should
require some significant pressure, maybe too high compared to e.g.
pressure-sensitive painting
- where a tablet has an offset, add the same 1%/5% thresholds, on top of
that offset. And keep adjusting those thresholds as we change the
offset. Assuming that the offset is the absolute minimum a worn-out
pen can reach, this gives us the same behaviour as a new pen. The
calculation here uses a simple approach so the actual range is
slightly larger than 5% but it'll do.
Previously, the lower threshold for an offset pen was the axis minimum
but that can never be reached. So there was probably an undiscovered
bug in there.
And fix a bunch of comments that were either wrong, confusing or
incomplete, e.g. the pressure thresholds were already in device
coordinates.

This fixes a format string vulnerabilty.
evdev_log_message() composes a format string consisting of a fixed
prefix (including the rendered device name) and the passed-in format
buffer. This format string is then passed with the arguments to the
actual log handler, which usually and eventually ends up being printf.
If the device name contains a printf-style format directive, these ended
up in the format string and thus get interpreted correctly, e.g. for a
device "Foo%sBar" the log message vs printf invocation ends up being:
evdev_log_message(device, "some message %s", "some argument");
printf("event9 - Foo%sBar: some message %s", "some argument");
This can enable an attacker to execute malicious code with the
privileges of the process using libinput.
To exploit this, an attacker needs to be able to create a kernel device
with a malicious name, e.g. through /dev/uinput or a Bluetooth device.
To fix this, convert any potential format directives in the device name
by duplicating percentages.
Pre-rendering the device to avoid the issue altogether would be nicer
but the current log level hooks do not easily allow for this. The device
name is the only user-controlled part of the format string.
A second potential issue is the sysname of the device which is also
sanitized.
This issue was found by Albin Eldstål-Ahrens and Benjamin Svensson from
Assured AB, and independently by Lukas Lamster.

Since cd4f2f32b5 ("fallback: disable mouse scroll wheel while middle
button is pressed") the mouse wheel is inhibited while the mouse wheel
is pressed.
The original intention of this feature was to avoid unintended scroll
while pressing the scroll wheel. However, now that high-resolution
scroll is fully integrated in libinput we can improve this feature and
filter unintended scroll (below half a detent) and allow it when it is
intended (over half a detent).
Remove the "WHEEL_STATE_PRESSED" state from the wheel state machine and
let the general heuristics handle this case.
Also, remove the specific tests for this feature as now it is covered
by the general test cases.

Mice with high-resolution support can generate deltas when the finger is
put on the wheel or when the user tries to click the wheel.
To avoid sending involuntary scroll events, add an extra state the the
wheel state machine to accumulate scroll deltas.
While the accumulated scroll is lower than a certain threshold, ignore
them until the threshold is reached.
Since no finish event is sent by the mouse, reset the state machine
after a period of scroll inactivity.

If a touchpad is removed before its dwt-paired keyboard, we're leaking
the keyboard struct. Fix this by cleaning up properly when our device is
removed.
This is the cause of many failed tests in the udev backend tests during
the CI valgrind run. Because we're testing the udev backend it will add
any devices created by tests run in parallel, some of which are keyboard
devices. Depening on the test completions, the keyboards may or may not

Starting with kernel v5.0 two new axes are available for high-resolution wheel
scrolling: REL_WHEEL_HI_RES and REL_HWHEEL_HI_RES. Both axes send data in
fractions of 120 where each multiple of 120 amounts to one logical scroll
event. Fractions of 120 indicate a wheel movement less than one detent.
This commit adds a new API for scroll events. Three new event types that encode
the axis source in the event type name and a new API to get a normalized-to-120
value that also used by Windows and the kernel (each multiple of 120 represents
a logical scroll click).
This addresses a main shortcoming with the existing API - it was unreliable to
calculate the click angle based on the axis value+discrete events and thus any
caller using the axis value alone would be left with some ambiguity. With the
v120 API it's now possible to (usually) calculate the click angle, but more
importantly it provides the simplest hw-independent way of scrolling by a
click or a fraction of a click.
A new event type is required, the only way to integrate the v120 value
otherwise was to start sending events with a discrete value of 0. This
would break existing xf86-input-libinput (divide by zero, fixed in 0.28.2) and
weston (general confusion). mutter, kwin are unaffected.
With the new API, the old POINTER_AXIS event are deprecated - callers should use
the new API where available and discard any POINTER_AXIS events.
Notable: REL_WHEEL/REL_HWHEEL are emulated by the kernel but there's no
guarantee that they'll come every accumulated 120 values, e.g. Logitech mice
often send events that don't add up to 120 per detent.
We use the kernel's wheel click emulation instead of doing our own.
libinput guarantees high-resolution events even on pre-5.0 kernels.

3d3d9b7f69 got rid of the need for a tmp

used inside a block without curly braces, e.g.
if (condition)
list_for_each_safe()

The assignment preceding the actual loop would result in the code
reading as:

This assumption dates back roughly a decade when INPUT_PROP_BUTTONPAD was
introduced into the kernel. To my knowledge, devices right now erroneously
advertise INPUT_PROP_BUTTONPAD when they are not a clickpad (but then they
have BTN_RIGHT) or they lack INPUT_PROP_BUTTONPAD (and only have BTN_LEFT).
So let's change our assumption here - if a clickpad has a right button log the
kernel bug and continue with the assumption the device is a touchpad with
physical buttons.
To disable that warning, fix the kernel or add an AttrInputPropDisable quirk
for the device.

There is only one touchpad with a physical left button but no right button and
that is the old Apple touchpad, discontinued in 2008. Not a huge number of

So let's change our assumptions because these days the vast majority of
touchpads are clickpads - any touchpad that only has a left button is treated
as clickpad, even where the kernel doesn't set the INPUT_PROP_BUTTONPAD.
We do need to check for BTN_LEFT as well though, because Wacom touchpads (i.e.
the touch part of non-integrated Wacom tablets) don't have a left button
