The id_table field of the struct usb_device_id is constant in <linux/usb.h> so it is worth to make the initialization data also constant. The semantic match that finds this kind of pattern is as follows: (http://coccinelle.lip6.fr/) // <smpl> @r@ disable decl_init,const_decl_init; identifier I1, I2, x; @@ struct I1 { ... const struct I2 *x; ... }; @s@ identifier r.I1, y; identifier r.x, E; @@ struct I1 y = { .x = E, }; @c@ identifier r.I2; identifier s.E; @@ const struct I2 E[] = ... ; @depends on !c@ identifier r.I2; identifier s.E; @@ + const struct I2 E[] = ...; // </smpl> Signed-off-by: Németh Márton <nm127@freemail.hu> Cc: Julia Lawall <julia@diku.dk> Cc: cocci@diku.dk Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de> |

README
This directory contains the Linux USB Tranzport and Alphatrack Kernel drivers. See http://www.frontierdesign.com for details on these devices. Userspace test code is available from git://toutatis.isc.org/home/d/src/git/frontier.git At present the tranzport does reads/writes of 8 byte cmds to /dev/tranzport0 to control the lights, screen, and wheel. At present the alphatrack accepts reads/writes of 12 byte cmds to /dev/tranzport0 to control the lights, screen, fader and touchpad. The tranzport driver provides a rudimentary sysfs interface for the status of the device and a writable parameter for turning wheel compression on and off. The API is nothing more than the USB commands issued to the device. Why? The control wheel/fader can generate events far too quickly for a typical userspace application to keep up with them via libusb. Input needs to be 100% accurate and fast in order for the alphatrack or tranzport to be useful. UIO would be useful except that usb disconnect events need to be handled correctly. A sysfs interface is perfect for simple userspace apps to do fun things with the lights and screen. But it's fairly lousy for handling input events and very lousy for watching the state of the shuttle wheel. A linux input events interface is great for the input events and shuttle wheel. * It's theoretically OK on LEDs. * A fader can be mapped to an absolute mouse device. * But there is no LCD support at all, or fader feedback support in that API So, thus, these stubby drivers exist. In the end this could be driven by a midi layer, which handles all those cases via a well defined API, but - among other things - is slow, doesn't do flow control, and is a LOT of extra work, none of which is required at the kernel level (probably). Frankly, I'd like to keep the core driver simple because the only realtime work really required is the bottom half interrupt handler and the output overlapping. Exposing some sort of clean api to userspace would be perfect. What that API looks like? Gah. beats me.
