Dmitry,

Was wondering if you are OK pushing this for 2.6.39-rc3 or whether you are OK
with me doing. It fixes a regression introduced by the last hunk of
5ea5254aa0ad269cfbd2875c973ef25ab5b5e9db

The patch rebase on top of 2.6.39-rc3 looks as so:

(and the patch is in git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/konrad/xen.git stable/bug-fixes-rc3)
commit 876f162fe6831273fc5d678fa066f26f58be4a2c
Author: Igor Mammedov <[email protected]>
Date: Thu Apr 14 17:45:07 2011 +0200

Input: xen-kbdfront: Mouse stuck after save/restore of guest.

Mouse stuck after restore of PV guest but buttons are
in working condition.

If driver has been configured for ABS coordinates at
start it will get XENKBD_TYPE_POS events and then
suddenly after restore it'll start getting
XENKBD_TYPE_MOTION events, that will be dropped later
and they won't get into user-space.

Regression was introduced by hunk 5 and 6 of
5ea5254aa0ad269cfbd2875c973ef25ab5b5e9db
("Input: xen-kbdfront - advertise either absolute or relative coordinates"

Driver on restore should ask xen for request-abs-pointer
again if it's available. So restore parts that did it
before 5ea5254.

Looking through my backlog, I noticed that the patch went also to
[email protected] and is now in various trees already.
So please forward this revert also to [email protected]

OK. The upstream git commit is c36b58e8a9112017c2bcc322cc98e71241814303.

Which stable tree did it go through? 2.6.38 only I presume?

In Fedora 13 it still works (2.6.34.*)

Hello stable-tree maintainers.

Please apply the upstream git commit c36b58e8a9112017c2bcc322cc98e71241814303
(Input: xen-kbdfront - fix mouse getting stuck after save/restore)
which fixes a regression introduced by 8c3c283e6bf463ab498d6e7823aff6c4762314b6
(Input: xen-kbdfront - advertise either absolute or relative coordinates)

The 2.6.38 and 2.6.37 tree both contain the regression.

For convience, attached and inline is the patch for stable tree submission.

commit c36b58e8a9112017c2bcc322cc98e71241814303

Input: xen-kbdfront - fix mouse getting stuck after save/restore

Mouse gets "stuck" after restore of PV guest but buttons are in working
condition.

If driver has been configured for ABS coordinates at start it will get
XENKBD_TYPE_POS events and then suddenly after restore it'll start getting
XENKBD_TYPE_MOTION events, that will be dropped later and they won't get
into user-space.

Regression was introduced by hunk 5 and 6 of
5ea5254aa0ad269cfbd2875c973ef25ab5b5e9db
("Input: xen-kbdfront - advertise either absolute or relative
coordinates").

Driver on restore should ask xen for request-abs-pointer again if it is
available. So restore parts that did it before 5ea5254.

I checked which trees contain the broken commit from mainline:

broken stable trees:

That commit fails to apply on the .38-stable tree, or anything else I
tried. Please provide a backported version if you wish to have it
applied.

Note that the .37-stable tree is now closed, so that doesn't matter
anymore.
