The new implementation more accurately tracks the velocity
of flings and takes care to avoid obvious discontinuities.
The main goal is for a fling to appear to be a linear
extension of the movement already in progress. The minimum
fling velocity is set to ensure that flings appear to be
fairly smooth despite being discretized.
Use sequences of repeated key events instead of individual
down/up events to represent continuous motions in one
direction which can be helpful for stopping flings at boundaries
such as when flinging the cursor position within a text view.
Compute the movement thresholds based on the physical
size of the touch pad, if known. If not known, we assume a
nominal size.
Support stopping flings with a tap just like we do for
normal touch events elsewhere in the framework.
Moved the detection of ASSIST swipes into the InputReader
where it belongs. These swipes must be detected globally
to ensure consistent behavior across the all applications.
Added a custom protocol in EventHub to enable input device
drivers to override the timestamp of the following events
in a packet. This change enables input device drivers
that have a better idea of when an input event was actually
generated to pass this information to the input system.
Particularly useful with uinput.

The input system needs to know about the window that has
focus, even if it is on a secondary display. So now we
send it the list of all windows and indicate which display
they are on. We filter the list of windows as necessary
when delivering touch events.
To keep things simple, monitor input channels and input
filters are not supported except on the main display.
We also do not pass the display id to applications; it is
only used inside the input system for now.
Properly scale touch coordinates based on the viewport.
This will be needed to ensure that touch works on external
display as well as when the internal display is being used
to simulate a different resolution.

The window manager is no longer responsible for telling the

Some touch device drivers report the range of
ABS_MT_ORIENTATION as [0,1]. The Linux multitouch protocol
spec says that the 0 value should always be considered vertical.
Add a new 'box' calibration mode for size to handle the case
where width and height are being provided. The 'diameter'
calibration mode is inadequate because it drops one of these
components.

The window manager policy made some incorrect assumptions about the
meaning of the Configuration.keyboard field. We need to be more
careful about distinguishing between built-in and external keyboards.
Most of this change is to move the determination of the parts of
the Configuration related to input devices into the WindowManagerService
leveraging new features of the InputManagerService to good effect.
Then we plumb through the flag that indicates whether a device
is internal or external so that we can be more particular about
how the lid switch effects changes to the Configuration.

Bluetooth devices can be renamed by the user. Make the
input system aware of the user-specified name and transparently
pass it down to applications. This enables the keyboard
layout picker Settings UI to use device names that are
consistent with what the user set in the Bluetooth UI.

Added the concept of a keyboard layout overlay, which is
a key character map file that has "type OVERLAY".
Added support for loading keyboard layout overlays from
resources dynamically. The layouts are reloaded whenever they
are changed in the Settings application or an application
is installed. This is somewhat more aggressive than necessary
so we might want to optimize it later.
Before system-ready, the input system uses just the generic
keyboard layouts that are included on the device system image.
After system-ready, it considers the user's selected keyboard
layout overlay and attempts to load it as necessary. We need to
wait until system-ready before doing this because we need to
be in a state where it is safe to start applications or access
their resources.

Added a getVibrator() method to InputDevice which returns a Vibrator
associated with that input device. Its uses the same API as the
system vibrator which makes it easy for applications to be modified

This change allows the InputManager to keep track of what input
devices are registered with the system and when they change.
It needs to do this so that it can properly clear its cache of
input device properties (especially the key map!) when changes
occur.
Added new API so that applications can register listeners for
input device changes.
Fixed a minor bug in EventHub where it didn't handle EPOLLHUP
properly so it would spam the log about unsupposed epoll events
until inotify noticed that the device was gone and removed it.

Added handling for EV_MSC / MSC_SCAN which typically reports
the HID usage associated with a key. This will enable key maps
to map keys with HID usages that Linux does not natively recognize.
Removed keyCode and flags fields from EventHub RawEvent since
they don't necessarily make sense in isolation now that we
pay attention to HID usage codes too.
Removed the fallback code for mapping keys and axes. In practice,
an input device should be self-sufficient. We should not ever
need to look at the built-in keyboard's key map. In fact, there
usually isn't a built-in keyboard anyhow. This code was originally
working around a problem where we weren't loading the key map
for touch screens with virtual keys, which has long since been fixed.

The purpose of the input device descriptor is to make it possible
to associate persistent settings for each input device, such as the
keyboard layout.
The descriptor is a hash of the information we have about the
device, such as its vendor id, product id, unique id, name,
or location.

Some drivers report one finger as BTN_TOOL_FINGER, two as
BTN_TOOL_DOUBLETAP, three as BTN_TOOL_TRIPLETAP and four
as BTN_TOOL_QUADTAP. Since we care about the tool type,
we need to handle _DOUBLE/_TRIPLE/_QUAD tap in the same way
we handle _FINGER.

Finished stylus support, including support for indirect stylus
and mouse tools.
Added TILT axis. When stylus tilt X/Y is available, it is transformed
into an orientation and tilt inclination which is a more convenient
representation and a simpler extension to the exiting API.
Touch devices now only report touch data using a single input
source. Previously touch devices in pointer mode would report
both absolute touch pad data and cooked pointer gestures.
Now we just pick one. The touch device switches modes as needed
when the focused application enables/disables pointer gestures.
This change greatly simplifies the code and reduces the load
on the input dispatcher.
Fixed an incorrect assumption that the value of ABS_(MT_)DISTANCE
would be zero whenever the stylus was in direct contact. It appears
that the correct way to determine whether the stylus is in direct
contact (rather than hovering) is by checking for a non-zero
reported pressure.
Added code to read the initial state of tool buttons and axis values
when the input devices are initialized or reset. This fixes
problems where the input mapper state might have the wrong initial
state.
Moved responsibility for cancelling pending inputs (keys down,
touches, etc.) to the InputDispatcher by sending it a device reset
notification. This frees the InputReader from having to synthesize
events during reset, which was cumbersome and somewhat brittle
to begin with.
Consolidated more of the common accumulator logic from
SingleTouchInputMapper and MultiTouchInputMapper into
TouchInputMapper.
Improved the PointerLocation output.

Don't clear slot data when slot is no longer in use.
The kernel will not resend absolute slot values if they are
unchanged, even if the slot was previously marked unused.
Because the protocol is stateful, this could cause problems if
evdev drops events (marked by SYN_DROPPED) since we cannot
query the initial values of the slots, but there's nothing
we can do.

This change improves compatibility with standard touch device
drivers. All existing touch device IDC files will need to
be updated because the input system now assumes that the
touch device drivers implement the multitouch input
protocol correctly and use the appropriate axes.

Bug: 5064702
Introduced the concept of an InputListener to further decouple
the InputReader from the InputDispatcher. The InputListener
exposes just the minimum interface that the InputReader needs
to communicate with the outside world. The InputReader
passes arguments to the InputListener by reference, which makes
it easy to queue them up.
Consolidated all of the InputReader locks into one simple global
Mutex. The reason this wasn't done before was due to potential
re-entrance in outbound calls to the InputDispatcher. To fix this,
the InputReader now queues up all of the events it wants to send
using a QueuedInputListener, then flushes them outside of the
critical section after all of the event processing is finished.
Removing all of the InputMapper locks greatly simplifies the
implementation.
Added tests for new stylus features such as buttons, tool types,
and hovering.
Added some helpers to BitSet32 to handle common code patterns
like finding the first marked bit and clearing it.
Fixed a bug in VelocityTracker where the wrong pointer trace
could get cleared when handling ACTION_POINTER_DOWN. Oops.
Changed PointerCoords so it no longer stores useless zero
axis values. Removed editAxisValue because it is not very
useful when all zero value axes are absent and therefore
cannot be edited in place.
Added dispatch of stylus hover events.
Added support for distance and tool types.

The input reader needs this information so that it knows how to
interpolate touches on an external touch screen.
Changed Display so that it asks the WindowManager what the real
display size is (as opposed to the raw display size). This means
it now takes into the forced display size set by
adb shell am display-size.
Replaced all calls to getRealWidth() / getRealHeight() /
getRealMetrics() in the WindowManager and replaced them with direct
usages of the mCurDisplayWidth / mCurDisplayHeight so that the WM
doesn't end up making a reentrant Binder call into itself.
Fixed the table status bar HeightReceiver so that it updates the
height on all configuration changes since it is possible that the
display size changed independently of an external HDMI display
being plugged / unplugged.
Improved the Display class documentation to make the distinctions
betweeen the various sizes clearer.
Change-Id: I3f75de559d3ebffed532ab46c4ae52c5e7f1da2b
Added TOOL_TYPE_ERASER.
Refactored the InputReader to share more code between the
various input mappers that handle button states and to
simplify the accumulator implementations by having each
one only handle a single type of input.
Removed the concept of direct/indirect tool types from the API.
If we add it back, it should be done in a manner that is orthogonal
to the tool type itself, perhaps as a flags field on the pointer.
The device source may well provide sufficient information anyhow.

Made it possible for individual windows to disable pointer gestures
while the window has focus using a private API.
Cleaned up the InputReader configuration code to enable in-place
