.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
|
The
|
|
.Nm
|
|
library provides routines to extract data from USB Human Interface Devices.
|
|
.Ss INTRODUCTION
|
|
USB HID devices send and receive data layed out in a device dependent
|
|
way. The
|
|
.Nm
|
|
library contains routines to extract the
|
|
.Em report descriptor
|
|
which contains the data layout information and then use this information.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The routines can be divided into four parts: extraction of the descriptor,
|
|
parsing of the descriptor, translating to/from symbolic names, and
|
|
data manipulation.
|
|
.Ss DESCRIPTOR FUNCTIONS
|
|
A report descriptor can be obtained by calling
|
|
.Fn hid_get_report_desc
|
|
with a file descriptor obtained by opening a
|
|
.Xr uhid 4
|
|
device. Alternatively a data buffer containing the report descriptor can be
|
|
passed into
|
|
.Fn hid_use_report_desc .
|
|
The data is copied into an internal structure. When the report descriptor
|
|
is no longer needed it should be freed by calling
|
|
.Fn hid_dispose_report_desc .
|
|
The type
|
|
.Fa report_desc_t
|
|
is opaque and should be used when calling the parsing functions.
|
|
If
|
|
.Fn hid_dispose_report_desc
|
|
fails it will return
|
|
.Fa NULL .
|
|
.Ss DESCRIPTOR PARSING FUNCTIONS
|
|
To parse the report descriptor the
|
|
.Fn hid_start_parse
|
|
function should be called with a report descriptor and a set that
|
|
describes which items that are interesting. The set is obtained
|
|
by or-ing together values
|
|
.Fa "(1 << k)"
|
|
where
|
|
.Fa k
|
|
is an item of type
|
|
.Fa hid_kind_t .
|
|
The function returns
|
|
.Fa NULL
|
|
if the initialization fails, otherwise an opaque value to be used
|
|
in subsequent calls.
|
|
After parsing the
|
|
.Fn hid_end_parse
|
|
function should be called to free internal data structures.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
To iterate through all the items in the report descriptor
|
|
.Fn hid_get_item
|
|
should be called while it returns a value greater than 0.
|
|
When the report descriptor ends it will returns 0; a syntax
|
|
error within the report descriptor will cause a return value less
|
|
than 0.
|
|
The struct pointed to by
|
|
.Fa h
|
|
will be filled with the relevant data for the item.
|
|
The definition of
|
|
.Fa hid_item_t
|
|
can be found in
|
|
.Pa <libusb.h>
|
|
and the meaning of the components in the USB HID documentation.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
Data should be read/written to the device in the size of
|
|
the report. The size of a report (of a certain kind) can be
|
|
computed by the
|
|
.Fn hid_report_size
|
|
function.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
To locate a single item the
|
|
.Fn hid_locate
|
|
function can be used. It should be given the usage code of
|
|
the item and its kind and it will fill the item and return
|
|
non-zero if the item was found.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
.Ss NAME TRANSLATION FUNCTIONS
|
|
The function
|
|
.Fn hid_usage_page
|
|
will return the symbolic name of a usage page, and the function
|
|
.Fn hid_usage_in_page
|
|
will return the symbolic name of the usage within the page.
|
|
Both these functions may return a pointer to static data.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The functions
|
|
.Fn hid_parse_usage_page
|
|
and
|
|
.Fn hid_parse_usage_in_page
|
|
are the inverses of
|
|
.Fn hid_usage_page
|
|
and
|
|
.Fn hid_usage_in_page .
|
|
They take a usage string and return the number of the usage, or -1
|
|
if it cannot be found.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
Before any of these functions can be called the usage table
|
|
must be parsed, this is done by calling
|
|
.Fn hid_init
|
|
with the name of the table. Passing
|
|
.Fa NULL
|
|
to this function will cause it to use the default table.
|
|
.Ss DATA EXTRACTION FUNCTIONS
|
|
Given the data obtained from a HID device and an item in the
|
|
report descriptor the
|
|
.Fn hid_get_data
|
|
function extracts the value of the item.
|
|
Conversely
|
|
.Fn hid_set_data
|
|
can be used to put data into a report (which must be zeroed first).
