From b6cbf3ef4f270c0dfe84b26649e4fc0c25bb0844 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Ian Campbell Date: Wed, 1 Jun 2005 02:39:25 -0500 Subject: [PATCH] Input: return correct value when setting up absolute device via uinipt. uinput_alloc_device() is supposed to return the number of bytes read, the value is returned to uinput_write() and from there to userspace. If EV_ABS is set then it returns the value from uinput_validate_absbits() instead, which is zero when everything is ok instead of the count.
