If a touch is in TOUCH_NONE, there is nothing to see here, please move along.
In the case of bug 105696, we were accessing the speed.exceeded_count of a
touch that was released previously, erroneously detecting a speed-based thumb.
The sequence was:
- touch down in slot 0, speed.exceeded_count is reset to 0
- move touch until exceeded_count is greater than our threshold
- touch up in slot 0
- touch down in slot 1 [1]
- touch down in slot 2 (more than 25mm away)
- we counted the slot 0 speed.exceeded_count, labeling the slot 2 touch as
speed-based thumb
[1] peculiar behavior only observed on this device, usually slots get re-used
at the first opportunity so having an inactive slot followed by higher slots
being used is unusual.

libinput
libinput is a library that handles input devices for display servers and other applications that need to directly deal with input devices.
It provides device detection, device handling, input device event processing and abstraction so minimize the amount of custom input code the user of libinput need to provide the common set of functionality that users expect. Input event processing includes scaling touch coordinates, generating pointer events from touchpads, pointer acceleration, etc.
libinput originates from weston, the Wayland reference compositor.
Architecture
libinput is not used directly by applications, rather it is used by the xf86-input-libinput X.Org driver or wayland compositors. The typical software stack for a system running Wayland is:
@dotfile libinput-stack-wayland.gv
Where the Wayland compositor may be Weston, mutter, KWin, etc. Note that Wayland encourages the use of toolkits, so the Wayland client (your application) does not usually talk directly to the compositor but rather employs a toolkit (e.g. GTK) to do so.
The simplified software stack for a system running X.Org is:
@dotfile libinput-stack-xorg.gv
Again, on a modern system the application does not usually talk directly to the X server using Xlib but rather employs a toolkit to do so.

Reporting Bugs
Bugs can be filed in the libinput component of Wayland: https://bugs.freedesktop.org/enter_bug.cgi?product=Wayland&component=libinput
Where possible, please provide an evemu recording of the input device and/or the event sequence in question.
