hid-nintendo as DKMS module? #6

I've tried to use the joycond made by you in my Manjaro setup, but after failing, I've noticed that the hid-nintendo module is still not yet in the kernel officially. Since I'm sort of noob with any of the building stuff, are there any chances this gets ported temporarly as DKMS module? Or maybe could you provide instructions on how to handle something like that? Great works btw, best regards!

I have considered adding an out-of-tree module build option in the past. I just submitted a new patchset to the mailing list. I suspect it's pretty close to being merged in. I've removed the IMU patch for now, since that's where most of the needed work is.
If the feedback on my latest patchset looks like it'll be awhile still, I may mess around with an out-of-tree option to put on the aur in the meantime.

https://github.com/nicman23/dkms-hid-nintendo

i did a junk dkms module that works - 0 idea how to make it default to the hid-nintendo

currently needs something like

echo 0003:057E:2009.000A > /sys/class/input/js0/device/device/driver/unbind
echo 0003:057E:2009.000A > /sys/bus/hid/drivers/nintendo/bind

e: lol nvm forgot depmod

do you have any readme how to install the dkms module?
Yes an AUR package would be fantastic as well!

nicman23 commented Mar 25, 2020

clone the repo; cd into it

sudo dkms add .; sudo dkms build nintendo -v 1.0

it is generic so i did not bother with it

i ll probably make a pkgbuild when i have time

cheers!

the gyroscope of the joycons are not working yet with the driver, right?

it does but it is a different device

also just pushed hid-nintendo-dkms to the aur

@nicman23 thanks for you work!

i have connected succesfully the joycons via bluetooth and evtest lists them as devices. however the gyro does not raise any events. also I have no extra device listed.

may you give a short tutorial how to get the gyro running? thx

@nicman23

no idea - i am not the original creator and have only messed with the pro controller

if you get it running please tell me how

@DanielOgorchock

@mattrei Are you running evtest as root? I think the IMU evdevs don't get picked up by uinput for changing permissions.

Note that I haven't done much testing yet with the gyro support, and I removed it from the latest submission to the mailing list. I do have that in-progress patch still up in this repo, which in theory works, but there's some issues I need to fix with it still.

fyi the dkms modules has it

@DanielOgorchock oh yes the Joy-Con IMU is popping up on evtest with root privileges. is there a way to have it also for non-root users?

my main wish for getting joycons gyro to work is playing Super Mario Galaxy on the dolphin emulator on linux 💯

@mattrei You can set a udev rule (recommended) or put yourself in the input group (not recommended for daily use since it also exposes keyboard, etc to all user apps)

I should probably add that to the joycond udev rules
edit: I did

@mpawlowski7

Hi, If anyone is still interested I did a dkms module for this driver a while ago adding udev rules and sdl2 mapping:
https://github.com/mpawlowski7/NXControllers
I also improved player led counting so it's now working as on the switch.

This BUG halt was reported a while back, but the patch somehow got
missed:

It appears that the side effect that starts the shutdown timer was processed
multiple times, which can happen as multiple paths can trigger it.  This of
course leads to the BUG halt in add_timer getting called.

Fix seems pretty straightforward, just check before the timer is added if its
already been started.  If it has mod the timer instead to min(current
expiration, new expiration)

Its been tested but not confirmed to fix the problem, as the issue has only
occured in production environments where test kernels are enjoined from being
installed.  It appears to be a sane fix to me though.  Also, recentely,
Jere found a reproducer posted on list to confirm that this resolves the
issues

commit 18c850f upstream.

There's long existed a lockdep splat because we open our bdev's under
the ->device_list_mutex at mount time, which acquires the bd_mutex.
Usually this goes unnoticed, but if you do loopback devices at all
suddenly the bd_mutex comes with a whole host of other dependencies,
which results in the splat when you mount a btrfs file system.

RIP: 0033:0x7fa3972fdbfe
Code: Bad RIP value.

Fix this by not holding the ->device_list_mutex at this point.  The
device_list_mutex exists to protect us from modifying the device list
while the file system is running.

However it can also be modified by doing a scan on a device.  But this
action is specifically protected by the uuid_mutex, which we are holding
here.  We cannot race with opening at this point because we have the
->s_mount lock held during the mount.  Not having the
->device_list_mutex here is perfectly safe as we're not going to change
the devices at this point.

[ Upstream commit 1101c87 ]

We received an error report that perf-record caused 'Segmentation fault'
on a newly system (e.g. on the new installed ubuntu).

  (gdb) backtrace
  #0  __read_once_size (size=4, res=<synthetic pointer>, p=0x14) at /root/0-jinyao/acme/tools/include/linux/compiler.h:139

  #6  0x00007fad7823c103 in clone () at ../sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/x86_64/clone.S:95

The root cause is, evlist__add_bpf_sb_event() just returns 0 if
HAVE_LIBBPF_SUPPORT is not defined (inline function path). So it will
not create a valid evsel for side-band event.

But perf-record still creates BPF side band thread to process the
side-band event, then the error happpens.

We can reproduce this issue by removing the libelf-dev. e.g.
1. apt-get remove libelf-dev
2. perf record -a -- sleep 1

  root@test:~# ./perf record -a -- sleep 1
  perf: Segmentation fault
  Obtained 6 stack frames.

  Segmentation fault (core dumped)

To fix this issue,

1. We either install the missing libraries to let HAVE_LIBBPF_SUPPORT
   be defined.
   e.g. apt-get install libelf-dev and install other related libraries.

2. Use this patch to skip the side-band event setup if HAVE_LIBBPF_SUPPORT
   is not set.

Committer notes:

The side band thread is not used just with BPF, it is also used with
--switch-output-event, so narrow the ifdef to the BPF specific part.

Fixes: 23cbb41 ("perf record: Move side band evlist setup to separate routine")
