Fn + [KEYS] question

Fn + [KEYS] question

[Xiangfu Liu]

Hi

I know in the IBM laptop, you use Fn + F1 to do something.
I want [Fn + U = 7] in my device. 
when you press Fn + U in the terminal it will display '7'.


I look into the keyboard.c file.
but don't know which function is handle the Fn key?

there is [1] in the keyboard.h file. I don't know 
which Fn key belong. is it KT_SHIFT???

thanks for any advice. 


[1] -------------
#define KT_LATIN	0	/* we depend on this being zero */
#define KT_LETTER	11	/* symbol that can be acted upon by CapsLock */
#define KT_FN		1
#define KT_SPEC		2
#define KT_PAD		3
#define KT_DEAD		4
#define KT_CONS		5
#define KT_CUR		6
#define KT_SHIFT	7
#define KT_META		8
#define KT_ASCII	9
#define KT_LOCK		10
#define KT_SLOCK	12
#define KT_DEAD2	13
#define KT_BRL		14

Fn in laptops usually handled by firmware (OS does not see the scancode
for Fn at all). In your driver you will probably have to handle it
manually and adjust which keycode you emit (KEY_Y or KEY_7) depending on
whether Fn is active or not. I'd recommend not hardcoding KEY_* but
actually "shift" to different part of driver keymap so userspace could
change the keycodes if it wishes to do so.

Hi Dmitry
 thanks for the reply.
see [1], I change the [Red arrow] key to [ALTGR] then I can easy change the 
defkeymap.map. make all the red keys work.

but for the [Blue Fn] key. I don't know how to make it work in keymap?
there is [SHIFT] [CONTROL] [SHIFT] [ALTGR] four modifier keys.
all used. so I can not may the [Fn] to those four modifier keys.

can I make the leftAlt and rightAlt generate different keys?
like:
 LeftAlt + 'U' = Alt + 'U'
 RightAlt + 'U' = '7'

thanks for help.

Keyboard driver supports 9 modifiers total, you should be able use one
of these for your numeric buttons.

oh. can you give me some tips on the other modifiers.
how to define them? 
can I just change the defkeymap.map file?
or I must change the source code?

Hi Dmitry I found this[1] in the 'man keymaps', three are 9 modifiers.
but the in defkaymap.map, there is alwasy like:

control keycode  53 = Delete

there is no ctrll in the defkeymap.map.
how to implement this?
ShiftL + u = U
ShiflR + u = 7

thansk for help


[1]
Which  of  the  actions bound to a given key is taken when it is pressed depends on what modifiers are in effect at
       that moment.  The keyboard driver supports 9 modifiers. These modifiers are labeled (completely arbitrarily) Shift,
       AltGr,  Control, Alt, ShiftL, ShiftR, CtrlL, CtrlR and CapsShift.  Each of these modifiers has an associated weight
       of power of two according to the following table:

              modifier                weight

              Shift                     1
              AltGr                     2
              Control                   4
              Alt                       8
              ShiftL                   16
              ShiftR                   32
              CtrlL                    64
              CtrlR                   128
              CapsShift               256

The same as with AltGr you need to do

keycode XX = CtrlR

and then

keycode YY = u
shift keycode YY = U
ctrlr keycode YY = seven

Let me know if this works.

Hi Dmitry
thanks for the reply. I test this, it's not work. 
----------
$ loadkeys -m defkeymap.map > defkeymap.c && rm defkeymap.o
loadkeys: defkeymap.map:71: adding map 64 violates explicit keymaps line


I look into the keyboard.c,  in the kbd_keycode function
seems this "keysym = key_map[keycode];" make the CtrlL and CtrlR 
map to the Ctrl. so I change the keyboard.c[1] code like:

1. when press CtrlR pass, change back the Ctrl to CtrlR. 
2. in the k_shift function set a sign [shift_right] to 1
3. change the CtrlR to Ctrl in k_shift funtion. other code 
   will only know the Ctrl. not the CtrlR. 
4. when press "u" and [shift_right] is true change the keysym to "1"
   others are same.

_I think the code is not good. so if someone have any idea._
_just let me know._

thanks.

the line 71 is the "ctrlr ....", so I think the defkeymap.map not support 
the "ctrlr".

Please look at the very beginning of the file where there is "keymaps"
statement - you need to enable keymap 64.
