Subject: [PATCH AUTOSEL 6.19-5.15] HID: magicmouse: fix battery reporting for Apple Magic Trackpad 2
Date: Tue, 10 Mar 2026 05:01:36 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260310090145.2709021-36-sashal@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260310090145.2709021-1-sashal@kernel.org>

From: Julius Lehmann <lehmanju@devpi.de>

[ Upstream commit 5f3518d77419255f8b12bb23c8ec22acbeb6bc5b ]

Battery reporting does not work for the Apple Magic Trackpad 2 if it is
connected via USB. The current hid descriptor fixup code checks for a
hid descriptor length of exactly 83 bytes. If the hid descriptor is
larger, which is the case for newer apple mice, the fixup is not
applied.

This fix checks for hid descriptor sizes greater/equal 83 bytes which
applies the fixup for newer devices as well.

LLM Generated explanations, may be completely bogus:

## Analysis

### Problem
Battery reporting doesn't work for Apple Magic Trackpad 2 when connected
via USB if the HID descriptor is larger than exactly 83 bytes. Newer
Apple devices have expanded HID descriptors, so the original strict
equality check (`*rsize == 83`) causes the battery report fixup to be
silently skipped.

### The Fix
A single-character change: `*rsize == 83` becomes `*rsize >= 83`. This
allows the descriptor fixup to apply for newer devices with larger
descriptors.

### Safety Analysis
The fix is safe because:
1. The `>= 83` check still guarantees the descriptor is at least 83
   bytes, so accessing `rdesc[46]` and `rdesc[58]` is within bounds.
2. The additional content checks (`rdesc[46] == 0x84 && rdesc[58] ==
   0x85`) still validate the descriptor format before applying any
   modification.
3. The device type is still checked (`is_usb_magicmouse2` or
   `is_usb_magictrackpad2`), so unrelated devices are unaffected.

### Stable Criteria Assessment
- **Fixes a real bug**: Yes — battery reporting completely broken for
  newer Apple trackpad/mouse devices over USB.
- **Obviously correct**: Yes — the original check was overly
  restrictive; the `>=` check is the natural fix while maintaining
  safety through the other validation checks.
- **Small and contained**: Yes — single character change in one file,
  one driver.
- **No new features**: Correct — just enables existing battery reporting
  functionality for devices it should already work with.
- **Low regression risk**: Very low — only affects Apple Magic Mouse 2 /
  Magic Trackpad 2 USB devices, and the content validation guards
  against incorrect application.

### User Impact
Apple Magic Mouse 2 and Magic Trackpad 2 are widely used peripherals.
Users connecting via USB (e.g., for charging) lose battery level
reporting without this fix. This affects real hardware that many people
use daily.

### Verification
- `git blame` confirmed the original `*rsize == 83` check was introduced
  in commit `0b91b4e4dae63` ("HID: magicmouse: Report battery level over
  USB", Nov 2021), so the bug has existed since then.
- Read the surrounding code (lines 973-1006) to confirm the `rdesc[46]`
  and `rdesc[58]` access is safe with `>= 83` guard.
- `git log --grep` confirmed multiple battery-related fixes to this
  driver, indicating ongoing maintenance and real user interest.
- The device checks (`is_usb_magicmouse2`, `is_usb_magictrackpad2`)
  limit scope to specific Apple products only.
- The fix is self-contained with no dependencies on other commits.

**YES**
