Hi,
These two patches add the missing pieces for HID USI support. First one
adds the HID core changes to support the new Misc events for pen ID,
line color and line style. The second patch adds a BPF program on top of
the HID-BPF driver which adds support for writing the Pen parameters
from userspace, and to add filtering of HID low level events for ELAN
USI controller. The BPF programs are not built by the kernel as of now
(there are no Makefile changes), as there is a plan to most likely
integrate these to a kernel external repository. I have tested these in
my own external build setup though, and I can provide the makefile for
that if needed. Also a sample client program is provided for
communicating with the D-BUS server.
I have also a kernel testing branch available at [1], which contains a
few fix patches on top of Benjamin's HID-BPF driver work, and is rebased
on top of latest hid/for-next. The HID-BPF fixes have been cleaned up a
bit compared to previous setup. There are also a couple of new patches
for adding support for a delayed_work BPF program on top of the
hid-bpf driver; this is used to execute the raw_requests in non-irq
context.

[1] https://github.com/t-kristo/linux/tree/usi-5.16-v5-bpf
Add support for Universal Stylus Interface (USI) style events to the HID
core and input layers.

These samples add HID USI client and server code. These are not compiled
within kernel tree and are provided strictly as RFC only; the target for
these is to build them external to the kernel tree. The provided samples
run HID USI client-server communication over D-BUS.

I had a deeper look at the recordings, and I am very worried in what I
am seeing:
- the USI parameters seems to be transmitted only after the touch
- the USI parameters takes *a lot* of time to be transmitted (2 bytes
every 2 reports)
- the recording of the goodix one starts with a stylus touch without hovering
- the only "reliable" information we get when hovering seems to be the
transducer index
So I am wondering a few things:
- what happens when you switch between pens?
* Do we immediately get a different transducer index?
* Are the values right there or do they also take time to be updated?
- on the goodix one, do you still need to issue a get_report on the
feature to get the USI parameters, even when you change the pen?
Could you give me the following recording (with an updated hid-tools
master branch):
- on the Elan:
* start the recording from a fresh boot (no BPF loaded)
* hover for a few secs the first USI pen you have
* touch it for a few secs
* release, then out of proximity
* approach the other pen
* touch
* release, out of prox
* then once again with the first pen
* then once again with the second pen
- on the goodix: same thing
- on the goodix: same thing but with a BPF program to trigger the
GET_REPORT if you can cook one quickly (not a big issue if you can
not).
The reason I am asking about those recordings is because with the 2
logs you kindly provided, there is no way we can forward the raw
information to userspace. So I am slightly tempted to only rely on a
USI manager, in the form of the BPF program in 2/2 to transmit that
information to userspace.
If this is bulky just for the first event, then the input events might
be OK, we can assume when the application needs those events they will
be there.

Thanks for that. I had a very quick look. I thought we could directly
use the bpf_timer_* functions instead of having to cook another API.
I'll play around with this, but thanks for pushing forward :)
IIRC you asked me when I was counting on submitting the HID BPF work.
So my answer is that I wanted to submit it by the end of 2021, but it
looks like I have only one week to finalize this :/
The current missing points are:
- add selftests for all the new API introduced
- review the entire API to not have to deal with a mistake forever
- rebase against bpf-next
One part of the API I am wondering is whether it is good or not to
have bpf_hid_foreach_rdesc_item(). This function is complex and we
could in theory parse the report descriptor in userspace, even before
we load the program. So all the parameters you need in the various
raw_event functions could be computed in user space, leading to a much
smaller API. The other benefit would be that the API would only deal
with arrays of bytes, which is a small enough and versatile enough API
:)
Cheers,
Benjamin

Yes, there appears to be a very large latency when they are transmitted
from the pen to controller. Apparently the controller queries each
parameter from the pen individually and caches the received values
internally, and then passes these out via input reports.

Yes, however even this one is a static constant of "1" for the current
controllers.
>

No, the transducer index gets re-allocated, effectively the first pen is
going to use transducer index 1, and the second pen is going to re-use
that and still report it as 1. This is a highly annoying feature.
> * Are the values right there or do they also take time to be updated?
They take time to update. If you are using the same pen, the values are
retained in the cache and report correct values immediately, but if you
switch pens, they start updating with the same latency as initial pen touch.

Yes, goodix reports 0xff,0xff,0x77 for the parameters until a GET_REPORT
is issued, after which it notices the parameter that was queried has
changed and updates its cached value. Also, see how it reports 0x77,
instead of an index to the usages array.

See attached tarball. All three logs are in it, I crafted a BPF program
for Goodix controller also. Wasn't that bad actually, a few line change
so it might be possible to use the same program at least for these two
controllers.

Yeah, I am kicked by someone on this so want to proceed. ;)
According to documentation, bpf_timer callbacks are executed in soft-irq
context, so we can't use it at least for sending the raw_requests which
is needed for USI.

Ok, sounds like you want to submit it probably early next year then. I
just wanted to have some sort of ballpark estimate, and this is good
enough for me, thanks.

This might be a good idea. Assuming the BPF programs end up in the
hid-tools repo, there could be a generic library for parsing the rdescs
also which the userspace programs could use.

Looking at the logs you provided, and when you switch pens, it seems
the serial number in the Elan case is updated while hovering (but it
takes 3 seconds to get to that point).
Also, the first time you hovered the pen, the inrange slot was not
long enough to be 3 seconds, so maybe that's the time the controller
needs to manually update the information.
OTOH, on the Goodix one, if you initiated the GET_REPORT after the
first touch, the information came in a few ms.
So I wonder, what if you take the BPF program from the goodix and
start querying the information as soon as the pen is hovering in the
Elan case. Would that accelerate the time it fetches them?

And of course, Goodix doesn't even bother with the serial number.

Ouch. Well, that also means that this is used as an index and if the
controller were to support more than a pen, the index would be 2 for
the second pen when the first is touching...
So this is not reliable for now, but is consistent with a multi-pen scenario.

Well, that also means that we can ignore this field until we see
controllers capable of handling more than one pen.

That is worrying. The serial number is also cached and we don't know
if we are using the same pen or not way too long after the pen touched
the surface.

The 0x77 doesn't bother me too much. This should not trigger an input
event because we are out of the usage range.

I might be wrong, but I am not sure if soft IRQs are incompatible with
hid_hw_raw_request.
Anyway, I gave it a shot today and I am hitting the fact that we lose
the BPF context in the timer callback. So we might actually need a new
API :/

Yeah, sorry for the delay.

Oh. Glad to see that this is something you find interesting. Peter
Hutterer mentioned that idea and I am still not 100% sure about it,
but if you also think it'll make things easier, then why not :)
