[Qemu-devel] [RFC PATCH 00/15] input: rewrite qemu input layer

[Gerd Hoffmann]

  Hi,

This patch series is the first draft of a input layer rewrite.
New core code is largely in place.  There is some windup for
the legacy functions, to keep things working while switching
over users one by one.

Some ui code is converted to make clear how the new input layer
should be used.

No work on the device emulation side of things yet.

Main motivation for this is multihead support.  Thats why
QemuConsole is passed everythere, even though the code doesn't
use it (yet).  But some day the input layer has the should
be able to process/route events depending on the source.

Easy monitor integration is on the radar too, even though
none if this is coded up yet.  I wanna test the data structures
more before even thinking about exposing them via qmp.

In general the new way of handling events should more flexible
and be easier to extend than the old code we have right now.
We might want add touch support for example ...

Reviews?  Comments?

cheers,
  Gerd
