[PATCH v2 libinput 4/7] touchpad: implement edge-based basic palm detection
Peter Hutterer

Tue Jul 15 22:18:43 PDT 2014
A large part of palm events are situated on the far edges of the touchpad. In
a test run on a T440s while typing a long email all but 2 touch points were
located in the outer ~5% of the touchpad. Define a 5% exclusion zone on the
left and right edges in which new touchpoint is automatically assigned to be a
palm.
A finger may move into that exclusion zone without being marked as palm, it
just can't start in one.
On clickpads, the exclusion zone does not extend into the software buttons.
