Linux kernel source tree
57a063632d
Sometimes it is useful to observe (and maybe modify) data coming from an input device, but only do that if there are other users of such input device. An example is touchpad switching functionality on Lenovo IdeaPad Z570 where it is desirable to suppress events coming from the touchpad if user toggles touchpad on/off button (on this laptop the firmware does not stop the device). Introduce notion of passive observers for input handlers to solve this issue. An input handler marked as passive observer behaves exactly like any other input handler or filter, but with one exception: it does not open/start underlying input device when attaching to it.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
