Thanks.

Yes, that should work... both would end up fuzzed to the same value, for a not-so-obvious reason, IMHO :). It's a bit tricky, and I like it, but is that what you intended by the suggestion? -Daniel > > Thanks. > > -- > Dmitry -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-input" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html

Since this is inherently a problem when using the mt helper functions, turning fuzz off there ought to solve this problem transparently, and for all users. Thanks, Daniel, for reminding me of this year-old glitch. :-) Henrik -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-input" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html

The input fuzz algorithm does a pretty good job filtering out small jitter on input samples. However, there is a subtle problem when fuzz is used with mt drivers that also use input_mt_report_pointer_emulation() to report legacy single touch coordinates. The reported single touch coordinates are taken from the active MT slot with smallest tracking id. However, since the MT data is sent first, it has already had FUZZ applied. Thus, the ST coordinates actually get FUZZ applied a second time, with the just-fuzzed MT value as the 'old value'. It appears that it is non-trivial to fix this in the mt layer/input core, so, for now, just disable fuzz for the synaptics IMAGE_SENSOR path that uses input_mt_report_pointer_emulation().
