AFAIK there isn't no documentation about xserver evdev driver.

If you take a look at freedesktop git repository you will see 2 modules 
concerning evdev. One of them is 'x-input-evdev' which is an API *very* 
simple and easy to understand. It currently works with Xgl server 
(xgl-0-0-1 branch) if you compile the server with --enable-xevdev argument.

Maybe it will help you.

Yours,
