Hi there,
I am trying to use the gpio-keys driver to inject joystick events.
There seems to be some basic support of it, looking at <linux/gpio_keys.h>.
However, registering the following will trigger a kernel panic in the
kernel:
static struct gpio_keys_button my_buttons[] {
{
.gpio = GPIO_FOO,
.type = EV_ABS,
.code = ABS_HAT0X,
.value = 1,
},
};
(tested on kernel 3.12).
I don't know well the input subsystem, so I have no idea of what is
going wrong. Could anybody try to at least reproduce the issue?
Regards.

It woudl be helpful if you poster the stack trace from panic so we'd
have an idea where the fault happens.
Thanks.

Here is the crash log I get: http://pastebin.com/FzTTGxsR
(I did put it on pastebin because it's huge, 200+ lines).
The first OOPS happen as soon as the GPIO button is pressed; the other
ones seem to happen recursively. I included only a part of the log I
get, as the OOPSes continue to flow until the watchdog kicks in.

Hmm, I have an idea: this driver is one of few that does not use
input_set_abs_info() and this does not allocate memory for absinfo data
that input core uses to handle absolute events.
Does the patch below work for you?
Thanks.

Input: allocate absinfo data when setting ABS capability
From: Dmitry Torokhov <dmitry.torokhov@gmail.com>
We need to make sure we allocate absinfo data when we are setting one of
EV_ABS/ABS_XXX capabilities, otherwise we may bomb when we try to emit this
event.
