Subject: [PATCH 2/3] xen/kbdif: Add unique input device identifier
Date: Wed, 23 May 2018 09:19:22 +0300 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20180523061923.2036-2-andr2000@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20180523061923.2036-1-andr2000@gmail.com>
From: Oleksandr Andrushchenko <oleksandr_andrushchenko@epam.com>
If frontend is configured to expose multiple input device instances
then backend may require a way to uniquely identify concrete input
device within the frontend. This is useful for use-cases where
virtual input device needs to be matched to physical input device.
Add XenBus "unique-id" node parameter, so this sort of use-cases can
be implemented.
