android4.0与2.3版本的触摸屏驱动调试注意 .

android4.0与2.3版本的TP代码区别
在android2.3上调试TP时，只需要把linux驱动调通，android就可以正常使用了，而到android4.0上又有些不同了，针对linux驱动，需添加如下内容：
    1、在手指按下时需调用如下函数上报Key Down：
       input_report_key(struct input_dev *input, BTN_TOUCH, 1);
    2、在手指释放时需调用如下函数上报Key Up:
       input_report_key(struct input_dev *input, BTN_TOUCH, 0);
    这样通过的话，可以在android4.0上看到有鼠标指针（圆圈）可以移动，把触摸屏做成了笔记本电脑上的鼠标触摸屏了，后来再查了下，原来需要添加一个idc文件，具体识别优先级参考：http://source.android.com/tech/input/input-device-configuration-files.html这篇文档，会按下面的顺序识别配置文件：
•/system/usr/idc/Vendor_XXXX_Product_XXXX_Version_XXXX.idc
•/system/usr/idc/Vendor_XXXX_Product_XXXX.idc
•/system/usr/idc/DEVICE_NAME.idc
•/data/system/devices/idc/Vendor_XXXX_Product_XXXX_Version_XXXX.idc
•/data/system/devices/idc/Vendor_XXXX_Product_XXXX.idc
•/data/system/devices/idc/DEVICE_NAME.idc
   为了方便，我直接创建一个“设备名.idc”的文件，直接放到/system/usr/idc/目录下，相应的内容参考如下：
   # Basic Parameters
   touch.deviceType = touchScreen
   touch.orientationAware = 1

   # Size
   touch.size.calibration = diameter
   touch.size.scale = 10
   touch.size.bias = 0
   touch.size.isSummed = 0

   # Pressure
   # Driver reports signal strength as pressure.
   #
   # A normal thumb touch typically registers about 200 signal strength
   # units although we don't expect these values to be accurate.
   touch.pressure.calibration = amplitude
   touch.pressure.scale = 0.005

   # Orientation
   touch.orientation.calibration = none
   这样配置好后，在android4.0上的TP就可以正常使用了，而不会成为滑鼠触屏了。

Input Device Configuration Files
Input device configuration files (.idc files) contain device-specific configuration properties that affect the behavior of input devices.
Input device configuration files are typically not necessary for standard peripherals such as HID keyboards and mice since the default system behavior usually ensures that they will work out of the box. On the other hand, built-in embedded devices, particularly touch screens, almost always require input device configuration files to specify their behavior.
Rationale
Android automatically detects and configures most input device capabilities based on the event types and properties that are reported by the associated Linux kernel input device driver.
For example, if an input device supports the EV_REL event type and codes REL_X and REL_Y as well as the EV_KEY event type and BTN_MOUSE, then Android will classify the input device as a mouse. The default behavior for a mouse is to present an on-screen cursor which tracks the mouse's movements and simulates touches when the mouse is clicked. Although the mouse can be configured differently, the default behavior is usually sufficient for standard mouse peripherals.
Certain classes of input devices are more ambiguous. For example, multi-touch touch screens and touch pads both support theEV_ABS event type and codes ABS_MT_POSITION_X and ABS_MT_POSITION_Y at a minimum. However, the intended uses of these devices are quite different and cannot always be determined automatically. Also, additional information is required to make sense of the pressure and size information reported by touch devices. Hence touch devices, especially built-in touch screens, usually need IDC files.
Location
Input device configuration files are located by USB vendor, product (and optionally version) id or by input device name.
The following paths are consulted in order.
 
 
/system/usr/idc/Vendor_XXXX_Product_XXXX_Version_XXXX.idc
/system/usr/idc/Vendor_XXXX_Product_XXXX.idc
/system/usr/idc/DEVICE_NAME.idc
/data/system/devices/idc/Vendor_XXXX_Product_XXXX_Version_XXXX.idc
/data/system/devices/idc/Vendor_XXXX_Product_XXXX.idc
/data/system/devices/idc/DEVICE_NAME.idc
When constructing a file path that contains the device name, all characters in the device name other than '0'-'9', 'a'-'z', 'A'-'Z', '-' or '_' are replaced by '_'.
Syntax
An input device configuration file is a plain text file consisting of property assignments and comments.
Properties
Property assignments each consist of a property name, an =, a property value, and a new line. Like this:
property = value
Property names are non-empty literal text identifiers. They must not contain whitespace. Each components of the input system defines a set of properties that are used to configure its function.
Property values are non-empty string literals, integers or floating point numbers. They must not contain whitespace or the reserved characters \ or ".
Property names and values are case-sensitive.
Comments
Comment lines begin with '#' and continue to the end of the line. Like this:
# A comment!
Blank lines are ignored.
Example
# This is an example of an input device configuration file.
# It might be used to describe the characteristics of a built-in touch screen.

# This is an internal device, not an external peripheral attached to the USB
# or Bluetooth bus.
device.internal = 1

# The device should behave as a touch screen, which uses the same orientation
# as the built-in display.
touch.deviceType = touchScreen
touch.orientationAware = 1

# Additional calibration properties...
# etc...
Common Properties
The following properties are common to all input device classes.
Refer to the documentation of each input device class for information about the special properties used by each class.
device.internal
Definition: device.internal = 0 | 1
Specifies whether the input device is an internal built-in component as opposed to an externally attached (most likely removable) peripheral.
 
 
If the value is 0, the device is external.
If the value is 1, the device is internal.
If the value is not specified, the default value is 0 for all devices on the USB (BUS_USB) or Bluetooth (BUS_BLUETOOTH) bus, 1 otherwise.
This property determines default policy decisions regarding wake events.
Internal input devices generally do not wake the display from sleep unless explicitly configured to do so in the key layout file or in a hardcoded policy rule. This distinction prevents key presses and touches from spuriously waking up your phone when it is in your pocket. Usually there are only a small handful of wake keys defined.
Conversely, external input devices usually wake the device more aggressively because they are assumed to be turned off or not plugged in during transport. For example, pressing any key on an external keyboard is a good indicator that the user wants the device to wake up and respond.
It is important to ensure that the value of the device.internal property is set correctly for all internal input devices.
Validation
Make sure to validate your input device configuration files using the Validate Keymaps tool.
