From b5e5a37e36cd4d355b875665312d7aaae4e5833c Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Bastien Nocera Date: Fri, 16 Apr 2010 17:19:50 +0100 Subject: HID: add HID_QUIRK_HIDDEV_FORCE and HID_QUIRK_NO_IGNORE Add two quirks to make it possible for usbhid module options to override whether a device is ignored (HID_QUIRK_NO_IGNORE) and whether to connect a hiddev device (HID_QUIRK_HIDDEV_FORCE). Passing HID_QUIRK_NO_IGNORE for your device means that it will not be ignored by the HID layer, even if present in a blacklist. HID_QUIRK_HIDDEV_FORCE will force the creation of a hiddev for that device, making it accessible from user-space. Tested with an Apple IR Receiver, switching it from using appleir to using lirc's macmini driver.
