of the buttons, but just sends the press events. I'm pretty sure that
not even the kernel knows it, otherwise libinput would expose it.
It doesn't need to know it (and probably shouldn't because why would
it). All it
needs to know is how to read the information from the device when
needed ;)
Point is: if the kernel could read the information from the device, it
would know it. I don't think that the kernel knows it, which means I
don't think that the device driver has that.
Libinput is based on libevdev just like good old X11, no?
no idea whether it uses libevdev, but it's of course evdev.
