关于筛选输入设备的设备节点

    对于一些输入设备,尤其是热插拔的USB设备,其会自动生成或者关联设备节点--/dev/input/eventX(X = 0,1,2,...),这时候,我们需要找到我们要操作的目标设备节点,下面是一个示例,可以根据输入设备的name域判断.如下:

#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <string.h>
#include <stdint.h>
#include <dirent.h>
#include <fcntl.h>
#include <sys/ioctl.h>
#include <sys/inotify.h>
#include <unistd.h>
#include <sys/poll.h>
#include <linux/input.h>
#include <errno.h>

static int open_input_event(const char *inputpath,int flags)
{
        return open(inputpath,flags);
}

static void close_input_event(int inputfd)
{
        close(inputfd);
}

static int get_inputevent_name(int inputfd,char *event_name,int len)
{
        int ret = -1;

        ret = ioctl(inputfd,EVIOCGNAME(len - 1 ),event_name);
        if(ret < 0)
                perror("Get Event Name Fail:");
        else
                printf("You Are So Lucky.\n");

        return ret;
}

int main(int argc,char **argv)
{
        char event_name[100] = {'\0'};

        int inputfd = -1,ret = -1;

        if(argc != 2)
        {
                printf("Pls Input EventPath,Such As /dev/input/event0/1/2\n");
                exit(1);//return -1;
        }


        inputfd = open_input_event(argv[1],O_RDONLY);
        if(inputfd < 0)
        {
                perror("Open Input Event Fail:");
                exit(1);
        }

        ret = get_inputevent_name(inputfd,event_name,sizeof(event_name));
        if(ret < 0)
                exit(1);

        printf("%s named %s\n",argv[1],event_name);

        close_input_event(inputfd);

        return 0;
}

    可以直接GCC编译,运行如下:

You Are So Lucky.
