We currently used 0.5mm on touchpads as hysteresis value. This causes pointer movement delays, it is likely too high. Reduce it to a kernel-set fuzz value (if any) and see how we go with that. On many touchpads, the fuzz is 8 which would be closer to 0.2mm on e.g. a T440.
Note that the does some defuzzing anyway, but the response of that function is nonlinear, e.g. for a fuzz of 8, the physical deltas map to: phys 0..3 → delta 0 phys 4..7 → delta 1 phys 8..15 → delta 4, 5, 6, 7 phys 16..N → delta 16..N In other words, we never see some logical deltas 2 and 3. While this shouldn't matter given the average touchpad resolution, reducing the hysteresis margin is likely to provide some better response. We never see values 8-15 either which could be the cause of some pointer jumps we've been seeing. see https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=105303 Devices with a fuzz of 0 have the hysteresis margin reduced to 0.25mm (from 0.5mm). https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=105108 Signed-off-by: Peter Hutterer <peter.hutte...@who-t.net> --- src/evdev-mt-touchpad.c | 20 +++++++++++++++----- 1 file changed, 15 insertions(+), 5 deletions(-) diff --git a/src/evdev-mt-touchpad.c b/src/evdev-mt-touchpad.c index 833e5c99..0cd3e79d 100644 --- a/src/evdev-mt-touchpad.c +++ b/src/evdev-mt-touchpad.c @@ -3093,12 +3093,22 @@ tp_init_default_resolution(struct tp_dispatch *tp, static inline void tp_init_hysteresis(struct tp_dispatch *tp) { - int res_x, res_y; + int xmargin, ymargin; + const struct input_absinfo *ax = tp->device->abs.absinfo_x, + *ay = tp->device->abs.absinfo_y; - res_x = tp->device->abs.absinfo_x->resolution; - res_y = tp->device->abs.absinfo_y->resolution; - tp->hysteresis.margin.x = res_x/2; - tp->hysteresis.margin.y = res_y/2; + if (ax->fuzz) + xmargin = ax->fuzz; + else + xmargin = ax->resolution/4; + + if (ay->fuzz) + ymargin = ay->fuzz; + else + ymargin = ay->resolution/4; + + tp->hysteresis.margin.x = xmargin; + tp->hysteresis.margin.y = ymargin; tp->hysteresis.enabled = false; } -- 2.14.3 _______________________________________________ wayland-devel mailing list wayland-devel@lists.freedesktop.org https://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/wayland-devel
