Subject: Poll rate change and closing indication to polled input device
Date: Fri, 09 Oct 2009 15:02:59 +0300	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1255089779.28243.24.camel@4fid08082> (raw)

Hi

I would like to change the polling rate of the polled input device
on the fly depending on the use case. One possible way is to directly
modify poll_interval from my driver. However, I would like to introduce
functions which can be used to set / get polling rate like 

input_polled_device_set_rate(...)

input_polled_device_get_rate(...)

Another missing thing is an indication when the polled device is closed.
This can be used to turn off the HW which is not used anymore.

What do you think, is it ok to introduce these additions to the polled
input device?
