I was suggested off list to give an explanation on what the patch does.
So please, tell me if I need to clarify more, or make further changes to
the code.
The patch tries to fix two things.
1. Changes in hid_parse_usage_in_page() fixes problems in parsing usages
defined as: * Button %d
hid_parse_usage_in_page():
Previously - With input "Button:Button_1" returns -1
Now - With input "Button:Button_1" returns 589825
In the scenario of parsing Button:Button_1 we will not find a usage name
matching that string. For example Button:Button_1 is defined as
Button %d in the table.
We are still able to calculate the proper usage number in the same way we
are
able to calculate the proper usage name in hid_usage_in_page().
The first step is to identify if usage name is shortened. If it is,
usage will hold a value of -1. Then I try to locate a separator char in the
name as "_".
If a separator char is found I use it to read the value as "_%d" to get the
corresponding usage number
>+ us = pages[k].page_contents[j].usage;
>+ if (us == -1) {
>+ usage_sep = strchr(sep, '_');
>+ if (usage_sep == NULL)
>+ return -1;
>+ if (sscanf(usage_sep, "_%d", &parsed_usage))
>+ return (pages[k].usage << 16) |
>+ parsed_usage;
2. The text-string that is returned by hid_usage_in_page() misses page
information.
So the changes made in hid_usage_in_page() is to make it the inverse of
hid_parse_usage_in_page()
In details what the code previously did and now does.
hid_usage_in_page():
Previously - With input 589825 returns Button_1
Now - With input 589825 returns Button:Button_1
The change just adds a pages[k].name to the string, a format that
hid_parse_usage_in_page() expects it to have.
I make formatting in two steps when us == -1 which it is when usage is
shortened
as for example: * Button %d.
>+ snprintf(fmt, sizeof fmt,
>+ "%%s:%s", pages[k].page_contents[j].name);
>+ snprintf(b, sizeof b, fmt, pages[k].name, i);
The first step is to create a format string that will result in something
like
"%s:Button_%d".
The last step I use the fmt-string to create a complete string that will
result in
"Button:Button_1"
