Members

private

driver-specific data

event

event handler

connect

called when attaching a handler to an input device

disconnect

disconnects a handler from input device

start

starts handler for given handle. This function is called by input core right after connect method and also when a process that “grabbed” a device releases it

fops

file operations this driver implements

minor

beginning of range of 32 minors for devices this driver can provide

name

name of the handler, to be shown in /proc/bus/input/handlers

id_table

pointer to a table of input_device_ids this driver can handle

blacklist

prointer to a table of input_device_ids this driver should ignore even if they match id_table

h_list

list of input handles associated with the handler

node

for placing the driver onto input_handler_list
