It looks like a bunch of devices do not like to be polled for their reports at init time. When you look into the details, it seems that for those that are requiring the quirk HID_QUIRK_NO_INIT_REPORTS, the driver fails to retrieve part of the features/inputs while others (more generic) work. IMO, it should be acceptable to remove the need for the quirk in the general case. On the small amount of cases where we actually need to read the current values, the driver in charge (hid-mt or wacom) already retrieves the features manually. There are 2 cases where we might need to retrieve the reports at init: 1. hiddev devices with specific use-space tool 2. a device that would require the driver to fetch a specific feature/input at plug For case 2, I have seen this a few time on hid-multitouch. It is solved in hid-multitouch directly by fetching the feature. I hope it won't be too common and this can be solved on a per-case basis (crossing fingers). For case 1, we moved the implementation of HID_QUIRK_NO_INIT_REPORTS in hiddev. When somebody starts calling ioctls that needs an initial update, the hiddev device will fetch the initial state of the reports to mimic the current behavior. This adds a small amount of time during the first HIDIOCGUSAGE(S), but it should be acceptable in most cases. To keep the currently known broken devices, we have to keep around HID_QUIRK_NO_INIT_REPORTS, but the scope will only be for hiddev. Note that I don't think hidraw would be affected and I checked that the FF drivers that need to interact with the report fields are all using output reports, which are not initialized by usbhid_init_reports(). NO_INIT_INPUT_REPORTS is then replaced by HID_QUIRK_NO_INIT_REPORTS: there is no point keeping it for just one device.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
