The Xin-Mo Dual Arcade controller (16c0:05e1) needs this quirk in order
to have the two distinct joysticks working.

Before the change:
$ jstest /dev/input/js0
Joystick (Xin-Mo Xin-Mo Dual Arcade) has 2 axes (X, Y)
...
$ jstest /dev/input/js1
jstest: No such file or directory

After the change:
$ jstest /dev/input/js0
Joystick (Xin-Mo Xin-Mo Dual Arcade) has 2 axes (X, Y)
...
$ jstest /dev/input/js1
Joystick (Xin-Mo Xin-Mo Dual Arcade) has 2 axes (X, Y)
...

Adding Oliver to CC.

Oliver, how come that you didn't need this while working on the inigial 
Xin-Mo Dual Arcade support?

Thanks.

Sorry but I don't believe that XIN_MO is the owner of the 16c0 VID so 
should not be given that ownership in linux.

The "ownership" of 16c0 is a completely orthogonal issue to this patch.

16c0 was already defined (twice actually):
$ grep -i 0x16c0 drivers/hid/hid-ids.h | awk '{ print $2 }'
USB_VENDOR_ID_ATMEL_V_USB
USB_VENDOR_ID_XIN_MO

cheers,
Michele

Because I didn’t mind whether the controller announced itself as two joysticks with two axes each, or one joystick with four axes. In the software I use it for (a MAME for the Raspberry Pi), I can map a single device’s buttons and axes to several players.

I’m a bit surprised with this, though:

> $ jstest /dev/input/js0
> Joystick (Xin-Mo Xin-Mo Dual Arcade) has 2 axes (X, Y)

because in my case I had four axes, at least using evtest (I don’t remember if I tried jstest as well).

What bothered me at the time, though, is that even though the custom driver was made as a kernel module, an entry had to be added in the hid_have_special_driver table in hid-core.c for the kernel to use it, which means, if I understand properly, that the kernel still needs recompiling. Is that normal?

Best regards,
Olivier

Ah that is the crux of the matter. It never showed up with four
axes in my tests (raspbian, kernel 4.1.7), hence I submitted the patch
given that the two joysticks were indistinguishable without it on my
setup.

Which kernel version did you run your tests on? (Maybe some other change
skewed things around?)

I had that line in my kernel prior to my patch:
https://github.com/raspberrypi/linux/blob/rpi-4.1.y/drivers/hid/hid-core.c#L2008

Kind regards,
