In preparation for new protocol support, move the protocol information currently documented in alps.c to Documentation/input/alps.txt, where it can be expanded without cluttering up the driver.

ALPS Touchpad Protocol
|
|
----------------------
|
|
|
|
Introduction
|
|
------------
|
|
|
|
Currently the ALPS touchpad driver supports two protocol versions in use by
|
|
ALPS touchpads, the "old" and "new" protocol versions. Fundamentally these
|
|
differ only in the format of their event packets (in reality many features may
|
|
be found on new protocol devices that aren't found on the old protocol
|
|
devices, but these are handled transparently as feature differences rather
|
|
than protocol differences).
|
|
|
|
Detection
|
|
---------
|
|
|
|
All ALPS touchpads should respond to the "E6 report" command sequence:
|
|
E8-E6-E6-E6-E9. An ALPS touchpad should respond with either 00-00-0A or
|
|
00-00-64.
|
|
|
|
If the E6 report is successful, the touchpad model is identified using the "E7
|
|
report" sequence: E8-E7-E7-E7-E9. The response is the model signature and is
|
|
matched against known models in the alps_model_data_array.
|
|
|
|
Packet Format
|
|
-------------
|
|
|
|
In the following tables, the following notation us used.
|
|
|
|
CAPITALS = stick, miniscules = touchpad
|
|
|
|
?'s can have different meanings on different models, such as wheel rotation,
|
|
extra buttons, stick buttons on a dualpoint, etc.
|
|
|
|
PS/2 packet format
|
|
------------------
|
|
|
|
byte 0: 0 0 YSGN XSGN 1 M R L
|
|
byte 1: X7 X6 X5 X4 X3 X2 X1 X0
|
|
byte 2: Y7 Y6 Y5 Y4 Y3 Y2 Y1 Y0
|
|
|
|
Note that the device never signals overflow condition.
