Currently the hidraw module can only read and write feature HID reports on
demand, via dedicated ioctls. Input reports are read from the device through
the read() interface, while output reports are written through the write
interface().This is insufficient; it is desirable in many situations to be able to read and
write input and output reports through the control interface to cover
additional scenarios:- Reading an input report by its report ID, to get initial state
- Writing an input report, to set initial input state in the device
- Reading an output report by its report ID, to obtain current state
- Writing an output report by its report ID, out of bandThis patch adds these missing ioctl requests to read and write the remaining
HID report types. Note that not all HID backends will neccesarily support this
(e.g. while the USB link layer supports setting Input reports, others may not).Also included are documentation and example updates. The current hidraw
documentation states that feature reports read from the device does *not*
include the report ID, however this is not the case and the returned report
will have its report ID prepended by conforming HID devices, as the report data
sent from the device over the control endpoint must be indentical in format to
those sent over the regular transport.Signed-off-by: Dean Camera

Many source files in the tree are missing licensing information, which
makes it harder for compliance tools to determine the correct license.By default all files without license information are under the default
license of the kernel, which is GPL version 2.Update the files which contain no license information with the 'GPL-2.0'
SPDX license identifier. The SPDX identifier is a legally binding
shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler plate text.This patch is based on work done by Thomas Gleixner and Kate Stewart and
Philippe Ombredanne.How this work was done:
Patches were generated and checked against linux-4.14-rc6 for a subset of
the use cases:
- file had no licensing information it it.
- file was a */uapi/* one with no licensing information in it,
- file was a */uapi/* one with existing licensing information,Further patches will be generated in subsequent months to fix up cases
where non-standard license headers were used, and references to license
had to be inferred by heuristics based on keywords.The analysis to determine which SPDX License Identifier to be applied to
a file was done in a spreadsheet of side by side results from of the
output of two independent scanners (ScanCode & Windriver) producing SPDX
tag:value files created by Philippe Ombredanne. Philippe prepared the
base worksheet, and did an initial spot review of a few 1000 files.The 4.13 kernel was the starting point of the analysis with 60,537 files
assessed. Kate Stewart did a file by file comparison of the scanner
results in the spreadsheet to determine which SPDX license identifier(s)
to be applied to the file. She confirmed any determination that was not
immediately clear with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.Criteria used to select files for SPDX license identifier tagging was:
- Files considered eligible had to be source code files.
- Make and config files were included as candidates if they contained >5
lines of source
- File already had some variant of a license header in it (even if

On systems where userspace doesn't have new hidraw.h populated to
/usr/include, the hidraw sample won't compile as it's missing the new
ioctl defitions.Introduce temporary ugly workaround to define the ioctls "manually"
in such cases, just to avoid miscompilation in allmodconfig cases.Reported-by: Stephen Rothwell
