This causes the state of buttons represented in byte 2 of the controller data packet to be incorrect until the next valid input packet. Wireless Xbox 360 controllers are not affected. Writing a new value to the LED device while holding the Start button and running jstest is sufficient to reproduce this bug. An event will come through with the Start button released. Xboxdrv also won't attempt to read controller input from a packet where byte 0 is non-zero. It also checks that byte 1 is 0x14, but that value differs between wired and wireless controllers and this code is shared by both. I think just checking byte 0 is enough to eliminate unwanted packets. The following are some examples of 3-byte status packets I saw: 01 03 02 02 03 00 03 03 03 08 03 00 Signed-off-by: Cameron Gutman --- drivers/input/joystick/xpad.c | 4 ++++ 1 file changed, 4 insertions(+) diff --git a/drivers/input/joystick/xpad.c b/drivers/input/joystick/xpad.c index 6727954..8b8ed9f 100644 --- a/drivers/input/joystick/xpad.c +++ b/drivers/input/joystick/xpad.c @@ -455,6 +455,10 @@ static void xpad_process_packet(struct usb_xpad *xpad, u16 cmd, unsigned char *d static void xpad360_process_packet(struct usb_xpad *xpad, struct input_dev *dev, u16 cmd, unsigned char *data) { + /* valid pad data */ + if (data[0] != 0x00) + return; + /* digital pad */ if (xpad->mapping & MAP_DPAD_TO_BUTTONS) { /* dpad as buttons (left, right, up, down) */ -- 2.5.0
