Compositors will need to keep provide virtual devices of supported
generic device types (pointer, keyboard, touch etc). Events from each
device capable of a certain device type abstraction should be combined
as if it was only one device.
For key and button events this means counting presses of every key or
button. With this patch, libinput provides two new API for doing just
this; libinput_event_pointer_get_seat_button_count() and
libinput_event_keyboard_get_seat_key_count().
With these functions, a compositor can sort out what key or button events
that should be ignored for a virtual device. This could for example
look like:
event = libinput_get_event(libinput);
switch (libinput_event_get_type(event)) {
...
case LIBINPUT_EVENT_POINTER_BUTTON:
device = libinput_event_get_device(event);
seat = libinput_event_get_seat(device);
pevent = libinput_event_get_pointer_event(event);
if (libinput_event_pointer_get_button_state(pevent) &&
libinput_event_pointer_get_seat_button_count(pevent) == 1)
notify_pointer_button_press(seat);
else if (libinput_event_pointer_get_button_state(pevent) &&
libinput_event_pointer_get_seat_button_count(pevent) == 0)
notify_pointer_button_release(seat);
break;
...
}

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.
