Hi,

use udev rules to set WL_OUTPUT property on the input device to the
output name. Weston uses libinput_device_get_output_name() to fetch it.

Looks like this is now documented nowhere, and
libinput_device_get_output_name() is listed as discouraged. It should
still work though, but may not be portable outside Weston.

I filed https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/wayland/weston/issues/283 to
improve documentation.


Thanks,
