Add the rt linux 4.1.3-rt3 as base
Import the rt linux 4.1.3-rt3 as OPNFV kvm base.
It's from git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rt/linux-rt-devel.git linux-4.1.y-rt and
the base is:
commit 0917f823c59692d751951bf5ea699a2d1e2f26a2
Author: Sebastian Andrzej Siewior <bigeasy@linutronix.de>
Date: Sat Jul 25 12:13:34 2015 +0200
Prepare v4.1.3-rt3
Signed-off-by: Sebastian Andrzej Siewior <bigeasy@linutronix.de>
We lose all the git history this way and it's not good. We
should apply another opnfv project repo in future.

The driver can also be optionally built as a module. + +This driver appears to be one of possible 2 Linux USB Input Touchscreen +drivers. Although 3M produces a binary only driver available for +download, I persist in updating this driver since I would like to use the +touchscreen for embedded apps using QTEmbedded, DirectFB, etc. So I feel the +logical choice is to use Linux Input. + +Currently there is no way to calibrate the device via this driver. Even if +the device could be calibrated, the driver pulls to raw coordinate data from +the controller. This means calibration must be performed within the +userspace. + +The controller screen resolution is now 0 to 16384 for both X and Y reporting +the raw touch data. This is the same for the old and new capacitive USB +controllers. + +Perhaps at some point an abstract function will be placed into evdev so +generic functions like calibrations, resets, and vendor information can be +requested from the userspace (And the drivers would handle the vendor specific +tasks). + +TODO: + +Implement a control urb again to handle requests to and from the device +such as calibration, etc once/if it becomes available. + +DISCLAIMER: + +I am not a MicroTouch/3M employee, nor have I ever been. 3M does not support +this driver! If you want touch drivers only supported within X, please go to: + +http://www.3m.com/3MTouchSystems/ + +THANKS: + +A huge thank you to 3M Touch Systems for the EXII-5010UC controllers for +testing! |
