Furthermore, +only a single event can be sent per read() or write(). Pending data is ignored. +If you want to handle multiple events in a single syscall, then use vectored +I/O with readv()/writev(). + +The first thing you should do is sending an UHID_CREATE event. This will +register the device. UHID will respond with an UHID_START event. You can now +start sending data to and reading data from UHID. However, unless UHID sends the +UHID_OPEN event, the internally attached HID Device Driver has no user attached. +That is, you might put your device asleep unless you receive the UHID_OPEN +event. If you receive the UHID_OPEN event, you should start I/O. If the last +user closes the HID device, you will receive an UHID_CLOSE event. This may be +followed by an UHID_OPEN event again and so on. There is no need to perform +reference-counting in user-space. That is, you will never receive multiple +UHID_OPEN events without an UHID_CLOSE event. The HID subsystem performs +ref-counting for you. +You may decide to ignore UHID_OPEN/UHID_CLOSE, though.

If the kernel wants to send data to the device, you will +read an UHID_OUTPUT or UHID_OUTPUT_EV event. + +If your device disconnects, you should send an UHID_DESTROY event. This will +unregister the device. You can now send UHID_CREATE again to register a new +device. +If you close() the fd, the device is automatically unregistered and destroyed +internally. + +write() +------- +write() allows you to modify the state of the device and feed input data into +the kernel. The following types are supported: UHID_CREATE, UHID_DESTROY and +UHID_INPUT. The kernel will parse the event immediately and if the event ID is +not supported, it will return -EOPNOTSUPP. If the payload is invalid, then +-EINVAL is returned, otherwise, the amount of data that was read is returned and +the request was handled successfully. + + UHID_CREATE: + This creates the internal HID device. No I/O is possible until you send this + event to the kernel. The payload is of type struct uhid_create_req and + contains information about your device. You can start I/O now. + + UHID_DESTROY: + This destroys the internal HID device. No further I/O will be accepted. There + may still be pending messages that you can receive with read() but no further + UHID_INPUT events can be sent to the kernel. + You can create a new device by sending UHID_CREATE again. There is no need to + reopen the character device. + + UHID_INPUT: + You must send UHID_CREATE before sending input to the kernel! This event + contains a data-payload. This is the raw data that you read from your device. + The kernel will parse the HID reports and react on it. + + UHID_FEATURE_ANSWER: + If you receive a UHID_FEATURE request you must answer with this request. You + must copy the "id" field from the request into the answer.

These output reports can be of type +UHID_START, UHID_STOP, UHID_OPEN, UHID_CLOSE, UHID_OUTPUT or UHID_OUTPUT_EV.

Consider this as an answer to + UHID_DESTROY. + If the kernel HID device driver closes the device manually (that is, you + didn't send UHID_DESTROY) then you should consider this device closed and send + an UHID_DESTROY event. You may want to reregister your device, though. This is + always the last message that is sent to you unless you reopen the device with + UHID_CREATE. + + UHID_OPEN: + This is sent when the HID device is opened. That is, the data that the HID + device provides is read by some other process. You may ignore this event but + it is useful for power-management. As long as you haven't received this event + there is actually no other process that reads your data so there is no need to + send UHID_INPUT events to the kernel. + + UHID_CLOSE: + This is sent when there are no more processes which read the HID data. It is + the counterpart of UHID_OPEN and you may as well ignore this event. + + UHID_OUTPUT: + This is sent if the HID device driver wants to send raw data to the I/O + device. You should read the payload and forward it to the device. The payload + is of type "struct uhid_data_req". + This may be received even though you haven't received UHID_OPEN, yet. + + UHID_OUTPUT_EV: + Same as UHID_OUTPUT but this contains a "struct input_event" as payload. This + is called for force-feedback, LED or similar events which are received through + an input device by the HID subsystem.
