废话不多说，直接进入主题。在驱动insmod后，我们应用层对input设备如何操作？以下以全志a64为实例。
在/dev/input/eventX下(X的形成为后续会分析),是内核把接口暴露给应用层，一切操作都在这个文件上。
input子系统有两大部分，分别是input_dev和input_handler组成。
这两个的关系与device和driver类似，不同的是device只能对应一个driver，driver可以对应多个devcie，而handler可以对应多个device，device同样可以对应多个handler。
在linux-3.10/include/linux/input.h：
struct input_dev和struct input_handler都包含struct list_head h_list和struct list_head node。
node：device(driver)列表，一旦内核注册了一个input(hander)设备会加入device(driver)列表。
h_list：handl列表，一旦node匹配成功，会加入handle新的列表。
input和hander是通过struct list_head node这个纽带连接起来的，在input_dev中代表device，在input_handler中代表driver。
当input_dev和input_handler匹配成功后会初始化struct input_handle(注意这里不是er!)，这是input子系统的句柄，一切操作都通过handle。
input_handle包含struct list_head d_node和struct list_head h_node。
d_node：连接input_dev的h_list。
h_node：连接input_handler的h_list。
input_handle会记录input_dev和input_handler相关信息。
/----------h_list<-------------->d_node
input_dev----------node |
| |
|<------------->input_handle
| |
input_handler-----node |
\----------h_list<------------>h_node
大概流程知道了，就从代码分析吧！
这里从input子系统的注册开始，代码在linux-3.10/drivers/input/input.c除了初始化函数，还有其他函数，后续分析会调用到。
以下忽略初始化部分冗余代码：
static char *input_devnode(struct device *dev, umode_t *mode)
{
return kasprintf(GFP_KERNEL, "input/%s", dev_name(dev));
} struct class input_class = {
.name = "input",
.devnode = input_devnode,
};
static int __init input_proc_init(void)
{
struct proc_dir_entry *entry; proc_bus_input_dir = proc_mkdir("bus/input", NULL); //input_devices_fileops会调用seq_operations
entry = proc_create("devices", , proc_bus_input_dir,
&input_devices_fileops); entry = proc_create("handlers", , proc_bus_input_dir,
&input_handlers_fileops); return ;
} static int __init input_init(void)
{
int err; err = class_register(&input_class); err = input_proc_init(); err = register_chrdev_region(MKDEV(INPUT_MAJOR, ), //#define INPUT_MAJOR 13
INPUT_MAX_CHAR_DEVICES, "input"); //#define INPUT_MAX_CHAR_DEVICES 1024 return ;
} subsys_initcall(input_init);
module_exit(input_exit);
从初始化的代码看，input_init只干了3件事情。
1：注册input class；
2：在/proc/bus/input创建devices和handlers属性，具体input_devices_fileops不分析，感兴趣可以cat里面的内容分析源码。
3：注册input字符设备。
input子系统初始化后继续分析，先从input_dev这部分看，以下以本人在全志a64平台上写的"my_key"为实例，my_key.c代码如下：

注释已经很明白，重点分析input_register_device，在linux-3.10/drivers/input/input.c定义。
忽略部分代码如下：
int input_register_device(struct input_dev *dev)
{
static atomic_t input_no = ATOMIC_INIT();
struct input_devres *devres = NULL;
struct input_handler *handler;
unsigned int packet_size;
const char *path;
int error; if (dev->devres_managed) {
devres = devres_alloc(devm_input_device_unregister,
sizeof(struct input_devres), GFP_KERNEL);
devres->input = dev;
} /* Every input device generates EV_SYN/SYN_REPORT events. */
__set_bit(EV_SYN, dev->evbit); /* KEY_RESERVED is not supposed to be transmitted to userspace. */
__clear_bit(KEY_RESERVED, dev->keybit); /* Make sure that bitmasks not mentioned in dev->evbit are clean. */
input_cleanse_bitmasks(dev); packet_size = input_estimate_events_per_packet(dev); //估算input_dev上报数据需要多少缓存空间，这里pack_size=8
if (dev->hint_events_per_packet < packet_size)
dev->hint_events_per_packet = packet_size; dev->max_vals = max(dev->hint_events_per_packet, packet_size) + ; //对于my_key，max_vals=10
dev->vals = kcalloc(dev->max_vals, sizeof(*dev->vals), GFP_KERNEL); /*
* If delay and period are pre-set by the driver, then autorepeating
* is handled by the driver itself and we don't do it in input.c.
*/
init_timer(&dev->timer);
if (!dev->rep[REP_DELAY] && !dev->rep[REP_PERIOD]) {
dev->timer.data = (long) dev;
dev->timer.function = input_repeat_key;
dev->rep[REP_DELAY] = ;
dev->rep[REP_PERIOD] = ;
} if (!dev->getkeycode)
dev->getkeycode = input_default_getkeycode; if (!dev->setkeycode)
dev->setkeycode = input_default_setkeycode; dev_set_name(&dev->dev, "input%ld",
(unsigned long) atomic_inc_return(&input_no) - ); error = device_add(&dev->dev); path = kobject_get_path(&dev->dev.kobj, GFP_KERNEL);
pr_info("%s as %s\n",
dev->name ? dev->name : "Unspecified device",
path ? path : "N/A");
kfree(path); list_add_tail(&dev->node, &input_dev_list); //把input_dev的node成员插入到全局input_dev_list list_for_each_entry(handler, &input_handler_list, node) //input_dev和input_handler匹配
input_attach_handler(dev, handler); if (dev->devres_managed) {
dev_dbg(dev->dev.parent, "%s: registering %s with devres.\n",
__func__, dev_name(&dev->dev));
devres_add(dev->dev.parent, devres);
}
return ;
}
input_attach_handler的实现后续再分析，现在input_dev(device)已经准备就绪，就差input_handler(driver)。
对应"my_key"的handler在linux3.10/drivers/input/evdev.c，初始化代码如下：
static const struct input_device_id evdev_ids[] = {
{ .driver_info = }, /* Matches all devices */
{ }, /* Terminating zero entry */
};
MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE(input, evdev_ids);
static struct input_handler evdev_handler = {
.event = evdev_event,
.events = evdev_events,
.connect = evdev_connect,
.disconnect = evdev_disconnect,
.legacy_minors = true,
.minor = EVDEV_MINOR_BASE, //#define EVDEV_MINOR_BASE 64
.name = "evdev",
.id_table = evdev_ids,
};
static int __init evdev_init(void)
{
return input_register_handler(&evdev_handler);
}
static void __exit evdev_exit(void)
{
input_unregister_handler(&evdev_handler);
}
module_init(evdev_init);
module_exit(evdev_exit);对于evdev而言，他的次设备是从64开始的。evdev_init只调用了input_register_handler，在linux-3.10/drivers/input/input.c定义。
忽略部分代码：
int input_register_handler(struct input_handler *handler)
{
struct input_dev *dev; INIT_LIST_HEAD(&handler->h_list); //初始化input_handler的h_list list_add_tail(&handler->node, &input_handler_list); //把input_handler的node成员插入到全局input_handler_list list_for_each_entry(dev, &input_dev_list, node)
input_attach_handler(dev, handler); //input_dev和input_handler匹配 return ;
}
这里又出现了input_attach_handler，现在input_dev和input_handler都有了，看看里面如何匹配。
static const struct input_device_id *input_match_device(struct input_handler *handler,
struct input_dev *dev)
{
const struct input_device_id *id; for (id = handler->id_table; id->flags || id->driver_info; id++) { if (id->flags & INPUT_DEVICE_ID_MATCH_BUS)
if (id->bustype != dev->id.bustype)
continue; if (id->flags & INPUT_DEVICE_ID_MATCH_VENDOR)
if (id->vendor != dev->id.vendor)
continue; if (id->flags & INPUT_DEVICE_ID_MATCH_PRODUCT)
if (id->product != dev->id.product)
continue; if (id->flags & INPUT_DEVICE_ID_MATCH_VERSION)
if (id->version != dev->id.version)
continue;
//bitmap_subset：argv1是否是argv2子集，若真返回1，假返回0。argv3是要校验的位数
//这里evdev是空集(id->xxxbit都是0)，是所有input_dev的子集
if (!bitmap_subset(id->evbit, dev->evbit, EV_MAX))
continue; if (!bitmap_subset(id->keybit, dev->keybit, KEY_MAX))
continue; if (!bitmap_subset(id->relbit, dev->relbit, REL_MAX))
continue; if (!bitmap_subset(id->absbit, dev->absbit, ABS_MAX))
continue; if (!bitmap_subset(id->mscbit, dev->mscbit, MSC_MAX))
continue; if (!bitmap_subset(id->ledbit, dev->ledbit, LED_MAX))
continue; if (!bitmap_subset(id->sndbit, dev->sndbit, SND_MAX))
continue; if (!bitmap_subset(id->ffbit, dev->ffbit, FF_MAX))
continue; if (!bitmap_subset(id->swbit, dev->swbit, SW_MAX))
continue; if (!handler->match || handler->match(handler, dev))
return id;
} return NULL;
} static int input_attach_handler(struct input_dev *dev, struct input_handler *handler)
{
const struct input_device_id *id;
int error; id = input_match_device(handler, dev);
if (!id)
return -ENODEV; error = handler->connect(handler, dev, id);
if (error && error != -ENODEV)
pr_err("failed to attach handler %s to device %s, error: %d\n",
handler->name, kobject_name(&dev->dev.kobj), error); return error;
}
input_attach_handler做了两件事情，匹配和连接相应handler，因evdev_ids匹配所有input_device，所以这里就直接调用handler->connect = evdev_connect。
看看evdev_connect做了什么事情，回到linux3.10/drivers/input/evdev.c，
忽略部分冗余代码，并加上部分源码注释：
static const struct file_operations evdev_fops = {
.owner = THIS_MODULE,
.read = evdev_read,
.write = evdev_write,
.poll = evdev_poll,
.open = evdev_open,
.release = evdev_release,
.unlocked_ioctl = evdev_ioctl,
#ifdef CONFIG_COMPAT
.compat_ioctl = evdev_ioctl_compat,
#endif
.fasync = evdev_fasync,
.flush = evdev_flush,
.llseek = no_llseek,
};
static int evdev_connect(struct input_handler *handler, struct input_dev *dev,
const struct input_device_id *id)
{
struct evdev *evdev;
int minor;
int dev_no;
int error;
//生成64~64+32的次设备号
minor = input_get_new_minor(EVDEV_MINOR_BASE, EVDEV_MINORS, true);
evdev = kzalloc(sizeof(struct evdev), GFP_KERNEL);
INIT_LIST_HEAD(&evdev->client_list);
spin_lock_init(&evdev->client_lock);
mutex_init(&evdev->mutex);
init_waitqueue_head(&evdev->wait);
evdev->exist = true;
dev_no = minor;
/* Normalize device number if it falls into legacy range */
if (dev_no < EVDEV_MINOR_BASE + EVDEV_MINORS)
dev_no -= EVDEV_MINOR_BASE; //次设备号减去偏移
dev_set_name(&evdev->dev, "event%d", dev_no);
//初始化handle
evdev->handle.dev = input_get_device(dev);
evdev->handle.name = dev_name(&evdev->dev);
evdev->handle.handler = handler;
evdev->handle.private = evdev;
//初始化device
evdev->dev.devt = MKDEV(INPUT_MAJOR, minor);
evdev->dev.class = &input_class;
evdev->dev.parent = &dev->dev;
evdev->dev.release = evdev_free;
device_initialize(&evdev->dev);
error = input_register_handle(&evdev->handle);
// int input_register_handle(struct input_handle *handle)
// {
// struct input_handler *handler = handle->handler;
// struct input_dev *dev = handle->dev;
// list_add_tail_rcu(&handle->d_node, &dev->h_list); 把input_handle的d_node加入input_dev的h_list
// list_add_tail_rcu(&handle->h_node, &handler->h_list); 把input_handle的h_node加入input_handler的h_list
// return 0;
// }
// 初始化并注册字符设备
cdev_init(&evdev->cdev, &evdev_fops);
evdev->cdev.kobj.parent = &evdev->dev.kobj;
error = cdev_add(&evdev->cdev, evdev->dev.devt, );
error = device_add(&evdev->dev);
return ;
}比较有趣的evdev_connect并没有用到argv3的struct input_device_id *id，因为evdev这个handler是可以匹配全部device的。
现在handle已经连接好dev和handler并且注册eventX，对eventX的操作都在evdev_fops。
在应用层open&read eventX，eventX到底是如何上报数据的?
由以上分析得到evdev_fops.open = evdev_open。
忽略部分冗余代码，并加上部分源码注释：
static int evdev_open(struct inode *inode, struct file *file)
{
struct evdev *evdev = container_of(inode->i_cdev, struct evdev, cdev);
unsigned int bufsize = evdev_compute_buffer_size(evdev->handle.dev); //bufsize=64
// static unsigned int evdev_compute_buffer_size(struct input_dev *dev) 函数定义
// {
// unsigned int n_events =
// max(dev->hint_events_per_packet * EVDEV_BUF_PACKETS, #define EVDEV_BUF_PACKETS 8
// EVDEV_MIN_BUFFER_SIZE); // return roundup_pow_of_two(n_events); 8*8=64刚好是2^6
// }
unsigned int size = sizeof(struct evdev_client) +
bufsize * sizeof(struct input_event);
struct evdev_client *client;
int error; client = kzalloc(size, GFP_KERNEL | __GFP_NOWARN); client->bufsize = bufsize;
spin_lock_init(&client->buffer_lock);
snprintf(client->name, sizeof(client->name), "%s-%d",
dev_name(&evdev->dev), task_tgid_vnr(current));
client->evdev = evdev;
evdev_attach_client(evdev, client); //把client的node插入到evdev的client_list // static void evdev_attach_client(struct evdev *evdev, struct evdev_client *client) 函数定义
// {
// spin_lock(&evdev->client_lock);
// list_add_tail_rcu(&client->node, &evdev->client_list);
// spin_unlock(&evdev->client_lock);
// } error = evdev_open_device(evdev);
// static int evdev_open_device(struct evdev *evdev) 函数定义
// {
// int retval;
// if (!evdev->exist)
// retval = -ENODEV;
// else if (!evdev->open++) { 第一次open才调用input_open_device
// retval = input_open_device(&evdev->handle);
// }
// return retval;
//}
file->private_data = client; //以后操作文件都通过client
return ;
}
注释已经很清晰，如果第一次调用open，需要调用input_open_device，在linux-3.10/drivers/input/input.c定义。
忽略部分冗余代码：
int input_open_device(struct input_handle *handle)
{
struct input_dev *dev = handle->dev;
int retval; handle->open++; if (!dev->users++ && dev->open) //"my_key"的dev->open = NULL，不执行dev->open(dev)
retval = dev->open(dev); return retval;
}
在"my_key"的实例中，input_open_device只干了一件有意义的事情就是handle->open++，到这里open的操作很清晰，主要是初始化client，因为后续的read都是在client操作的。
既然已经open成功了，后面看看evdev_read做了什么。
忽略部分冗余代码，并加上部分源码注释：
static ssize_t evdev_read(struct file *file, char __user *buffer,
size_t count, loff_t *ppos)
{
struct evdev_client *client = file->private_data;
struct evdev *evdev = client->evdev;
struct input_event event;
size_t read = ;
int error; for (;;) {
if (!evdev->exist)
return -ENODEV; if (client->packet_head == client->tail &&
(file->f_flags & O_NONBLOCK))
return -EAGAIN; while (read + input_event_size() <= count &&
evdev_fetch_next_event(client, &event)) { //evdev_fetch_next_event到bufsize次就会逻辑假
// static int evdev_fetch_next_event(struct evdev_client *client, struct input_event *event) 函数定义
// {
// int have_event;
// 通过client->tail &= client->bufsize - 1会使client->packet_head == client->tail
// have_event = client->packet_head != client->tail;
// if (have_event) {
// *event = client->buffer[client->tail++];
// client->tail &= client->bufsize - 1;
// }
// return have_event;
// } if (input_event_to_user(buffer + read, &event)) //copy_to_user多了一层壳而已
return -EFAULT;
// int input_event_to_user(char __user *buffer, const struct input_event *event) 函数定义
// {
// if (copy_to_user(buffer, event, sizeof(struct input_event)))
// return -EFAULT;
// }
read += input_event_size();
} if (read) //如果读到数据
break; if (!(file->f_flags & O_NONBLOCK)) { //如果阻塞
error = wait_event_interruptible(evdev->wait, //唤醒判断client有无数据或者evdev release
client->packet_head != client->tail ||
!evdev->exist);
if (error)
return error;
}
} return read;
}
添加了注释不能理解，这里有两个疑问。
1：什么函数使client->packet_head != client->tail并填充client->buffer?
2：若读阻塞，什么函数唤醒队列?
回到my_key.c，当按键触发中断的时候，会调用：
松开input_report_key(input_mykey_dev, KEY_ENTER, 1);input_sync(input_mykey_dev)；
按下input_report_key(input_mykey_dev, KEY_ENTER, 0);input_sync(input_mykey_dev)；
input_report_key和input_sync均在linux-3.10/drivers/input/input.c定义。
static inline void input_report_key(struct input_dev *dev, unsigned int code, int value)
{
input_event(dev, EV_KEY, code, !!value);
} static inline void input_sync(struct input_dev *dev)
{
input_event(dev, EV_SYN, SYN_REPORT, );
}
可见最终还是调用input_event，其在linux-3.10/drivers/input/input.c定义。
忽略部分冗余代码，并加上部分源码注释：

}
从以上源码可以得知，单一调用input_report_key(input_mykey_dev, KEY_ENTER, 0/1)，无法上报，因为没有EV_SYN刷新。
除了evdev_events的源码没分析外，我们仍然不能解决我们上面提的两个问题，那么解决那两个问题肯定是在evdev_events里面。
evdev_events在linux3.10/drivers/input/evdev.c定义。
忽略部分冗余代码，并加上部分源码注释：
static void evdev_events(struct input_handle *handle,
const struct input_value *vals, unsigned int count)
{
struct evdev *evdev = handle->private;
struct evdev_client *client;
ktime_t time_mono, time_real; time_mono = ktime_get();
time_real = ktime_sub(time_mono, ktime_get_monotonic_offset()); client = rcu_dereference(evdev->grab); //这里evdev->grab=0，可以通过EVIOCGRAB ioctl改变 if (client)
evdev_pass_values(client, vals, count, time_mono, time_real);
else
list_for_each_entry_rcu(client, &evdev->client_list, node)
evdev_pass_values(client, vals, count, time_mono, time_real);
//static void evdev_pass_values(struct evdev_client *client, const struct input_value *vals, unsigned int count,
// ktime_t mono, ktime_t real) 函数定义
//{
// struct evdev *evdev = client->evdev;
// const struct input_value *v;
// struct input_event event;
// bool wakeup = false; // event.time = ktime_to_timeval(client->clkid == CLOCK_MONOTONIC ? mono : real); // for (v = vals; v != vals + count; v++) {
// event.type = v->type;
// event.code = v->code;
// event.value = v->value;
// __pass_event(client, &event);
// static void __pass_event(struct evdev_client *client, const struct input_event *event)
// {
// client->buffer[client->head++] = *event; 这里head比tail领先
// client->head &= client->bufsize - 1; // if (unlikely(client->head == client->tail)) { 太久没同步client->head饶了一圈
// /*
// * This effectively "drops" all unconsumed events, leaving
// * EV_SYN/SYN_DROPPED plus the newest event in the queue.
// */
// client->tail = (client->head - 2) & (client->bufsize - 1); // client->buffer[client->tail].time = event->time;
// client->buffer[client->tail].type = EV_SYN;
// client->buffer[client->tail].code = SYN_DROPPED;
// client->buffer[client->tail].value = 0; // client->packet_head = client->tail;
// } // if (event->type == EV_SYN && event->code == SYN_REPORT) {
// client->packet_head = client->head; 问题1：改变packet_head
// kill_fasync(&client->fasync, SIGIO, POLL_IN); 异步通知应用
// }
// }
// if (v->type == EV_SYN && v->code == SYN_REPORT)
// wakeup = true;
// }
//
// if (wakeup)
// wake_up_interruptible(&evdev->wait); 问题2：在这里唤醒
//} }
解决以上两个问题都在__pass_event，对于第一个问题这里需要注意的是client->packet_head领先于client->tail，client->tail追赶client->packet_head。
总结上报过程(前提已经打开设备，这样才会生成client)：input_report_key--->input_event--->input_handle_event--->等待input_sync执行
input_sync--->input_event--->input_handle_event--->input_pass_values--->input_to_handler--->evdev_events--->__pass_event
