Does this platform requires the not lid_reliable check as per this
series? Because if it doesn't, then we should not care.

That doesn't matter. What matters is the state of the switch, not the
event. So if user space receives (in case we marked the switch as not
reliable) several close events, all user space will do is realize that
the state is still closed and will act accordingly.

Case 5 is broken anyway and needs to be handled specially. It was not
targeted in this WIP series.

This doesn't work and should be avoided. The state of the input switch
is known to the input layer only, and given there are spinlocks, you can
not know if the state is actually the one you expected beforehand.
You can however add frequency checks in the input handler, but that
would assume the input layer is not doing its job properly and so should
be avoided.

Again, we don't care if the "event" comes from ACPI, the driver itself or
user space (libinput). All that matters is the current state of the
input node switch, that needs to match the physical world at any time.

Well, that's already a patch on its own :/

You can put it that way. I prefer putting it: "when we export the LID
switch input node, you are guaranteed to have the proper state".

I do not care about systemd or the suspend lopps introduced by systemd.
All I care is that the kernel provides correct behavior. If systemd can
work around some issues we see because we are too lazy to fix them in
the kernel (this is not a personal attack, sometimes being lazy is the
right solution), fine. But the current state of this driver doesn't
follow the specification of the input subsystem on some platform, and
this is what this series fixes.

As long as the kernel lies, we should not even remotely envision asking
user space to change.

I haven't decided how to solve case 5 completely. So please do not take
this case into account yet.

> So why do we need to remove this feature (ACPI SW_LID) from Surface Pro 1?
Well, with this change, if you mark the surface pro 1 as unreliable, the
event will be forwarded to user space correctly. Just that there is a
systemd bug in which the state is not synced when the device appears.
So yes, it'll expose a new bug in userspace, but given the blacklist of
unreliable LID switches will be handled in userspace, user space can
make sure this will not show up before systemd can handle it.
> If you really want to propose an ABI change for user space.
> Why don't you do this in input layer by defining SW_LID as tristate?
Because this proposal is not a kABI change, and the kABI change you
propose is just not doable. We have too many users of EV_SW to be able
to say that we change the semantic. A solution would be to add a new
EV_* event, but we don't really need.
