Hi,
I thought I would try to push this [1] protocol along, as it's what
would be needed for wayland client gamepad input. There is still no
client-side "libgamepadinput", so clients are on their own when it comes
to handling these devices.
Here is a basic proof-of-concept implementation for weston:
https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/ascent/weston/tree/inputfd
It's a little rough around the edges, and a more complete implementation
would add some configurability. It just gives every device to whichever
client has the keyboard focus.
There is a very basic test client which just reports which devices it
receives, but doesn't currently do anything else with them.
The only oddity I noticed was there is a 'serial' argument to
zwp_inputfd_device_evdev_v1.focus_in which has no description and
doesn't seem to serve any purpose. A follow up version of this protocol
should remove that.
