<h2 id="_1_input_extension_overview">1. Input Extension Overview</h2>
<div class="sectionbody">
<div class="paragraph"><p>This document defines an extension to the X11 protocol to
support input devices other than the core X keyboard and
pointer. An accompanying document defines a corresponding
extension to Xlib (similar extensions for languages other than
C are anticipated). This first section gives an overview of the
input extension. The next section defines the new protocol
requests defined by the extension. We conclude with a
description of the new input events generated by the additional
input devices.</p></div>
<div class="paragraph"><p>This document only describes the behaviour of servers supporting
up to the X Input Extension 1.5. For servers supporting the X
Input Extensions 2.0, see XI2proto.txt. New clients are discouraged
from using this protocol specification. Instead, the use of XI 2.x
is recommended.</p></div>
<div class="sect2">
<h3 id="_1_1_design_approach">1.1 Design Approach</h3>
<div class="paragraph"><p>The design approach of the extension is to define requests and
events analogous to the core requests and events. This allows
extension input devices to be individually distinguishable from
each other and from the core input devices. These requests and
events make use of a device identifier and support the
reporting of n-dimensional motion data as well as other data
that is not reportable via the core input events.</p></div>
</div>
<div class="sect2">
<h3 id="_1_2_core_input_devices">1.2 Core Input Devices</h3>
<div class="paragraph"><p>The X server core protocol supports two input devices: a
pointer and a keyboard. The pointer device has two major
functions. First, it may be used to generate motion information
that client programs can detect. Second, it may also be used to
indicate the current location and focus of the X keyboard. To
accomplish this, the server echoes a cursor at the current
position of the X pointer. Unless the X keyboard has been
explicitly focused, this cursor also shows the current location
and focus of the X keyboard. The X keyboard is used to generate
input that client programs can detect.</p></div>
<div class="paragraph"><p>In servers supporting XI 1.4 and above, the core pointer and
the core keyboard are virtual devices that do not represent a
physical device connected to the host computer.
In servers supporting XI 2.0 and above, there may be multiple
core pointers and keyboards. Refer to XI2proto.txt for more
information.</p></div>
<div class="paragraph"><p>The X keyboard and X pointer are referred to in this document
as the core devices, and the input events they generate
(KeyPress, KeyRelease, ButtonPress, ButtonRelease, and
MotionNotify) are known as the core input events. All other
input devices are referred to as extension input devices and
the input events they generate are referred to as extension
input events.</p></div>
<div class="paragraph"><p>In servers supporting only XI 1.x, this input extension does
not change the behavior or functionality of the core input
devices, core events, or core protocol requests, with the
exception of the core grab requests. These requests may affect
the synchronization of events from extension devices. See the
explanation in the section titled "Event Synchronization and
Core Grabs".</p></div>
<div class="paragraph"><p>Selection of the physical devices to be initially used by the
server as the core devices is left implementation-dependent.
Requests are defined that allow client programs to change which
physical devices are used as the core devices.</p></div>
</div>
<div class="sect2">
<h3 id="_1_3_extension_input_devices">1.3 Extension Input Devices</h3>
<div class="paragraph"><p>The input extension v1.x controls access to input devices other
than the X keyboard and X pointer. It allows client programs to
select input from these devices independently from each other
and independently from the core devices.</p></div>
<div class="paragraph"><p>A client that wishes to access a specific device must first
determine whether that device is connected to the X server.
This is done through the ListInputDevices request, which will
return a list of all devices that can be opened by the X
server. A client can then open one or more of these devices
using the OpenDevice request, specify what events they are
interested in receiving, and receive and process input events
from extension devices in the same way as events from the X
keyboard and X pointer. Input events from these devices are of
extension types ( DeviceKeyPress, DeviceKeyRelease,
DeviceButtonPress, DeviceButtonRelease, DeviceMotionNotify,
etc.) and contain a device identifier so that events of the
same type coming from different input devices can be
distinguished.</p></div>
<div class="paragraph"><p>Any kind of input device may be used as an extension input
device. Extension input devices may have 0 or more keys, 0 or
more buttons, and may report 0 or more axes of motion. Motion
may be reported as relative movements from a previous position
or as an absolute position. All valuators reporting motion
information for a given extension input device must report the
same kind of motion information (absolute or relative).</p></div>
<div class="paragraph"><p>This extension is designed to accommodate new types of input
devices that may be added in the future. The protocol requests
that refer to specific characteristics of input devices
organize that information by input classes. Server implementors
may add new classes of input devices without changing the
protocol requests. Input classes are unique numbers registered
with the X Consortium. Each extension input device may support
multiple input classes.</p></div>
<div class="paragraph"><p>In XI 1.x, all extension input devices are treated like the
core X keyboard in determining their location and focus. The
server does not track the location of these devices on an
individual basis, and therefore does not echo a cursor to
indicate their current location. Instead, their location is
determined by the location of the core X pointer. Like the core
X keyboard, some may be explicitly focused. If they are not
explicitly focused, their focus is determined by the location
of the core X pointer.</p></div>
<div class="paragraph"><p>Most input events reported by the server to a client are of
fixed size (32 bytes). In order to represent the change in
state of an input device the extension may need to generate a
sequence of input events. A client side library (such as Xlib)
will typically take these raw input events and format them into
a form more convenient to the client.</p></div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
<div class="sect1">
<h2 id="_1_4_event_classes">1.4 Event Classes</h2>
<div class="sectionbody">
<div class="paragraph"><p>In the core protocol a client registers interest in receiving
certain input events directed to a window by modifying that
window&#8217;s event-mask. Most of the bits in the event mask are
already used to specify interest in core X events. The input
extension specifies a different mechanism by which a client can
express interest in events generated by this extension.</p></div>
<div class="paragraph"><p>When a client opens a extension input device via the OpenDevice
request, an XDevice structure is returned. Macros are provided
that extract 32-bit numbers called event classes from that
structure, that a client can use to register interest in
extension events via the SelectExtensionEvent request. The
event class combines the desired event type and device id, and
may be thought of as the equivalent of core event masks.</p></div>
<div class="sect2">
<h3 id="_1_5_input_classes">1.5 Input Classes</h3>
<div class="paragraph"><p>Some of the input extension requests divide input devices into
classes based on their functionality. This is intended to allow
new classes of input devices to be defined at a later time
without changing the semantics of these requests. The following
input device classes are currently defined:</p></div>

<div class="paragraph"><p>Each extension input device may support multiple input classes.
Additional classes may be added in the future. Requests that
support multiple input classes, such as the ListInputDevices
function that lists all available input devices, organize the
data they return by input class. Client programs that use these
requests should not access data unless it matches a class
defined at the time those clients were compiled. In this way,
new classes can be added without forcing existing clients that
use these requests to be recompiled.</p></div>

specified window which are of interest to the client. As with
the core XSelectInput function, multiple clients can select
input on the same window.</p></div>
<div class="paragraph"><p>XSelectExtensionEvent requires a list of event classes. An
event class is a 32-bit number that combines an event type and
device id, and is used to indicate which event a client wishes
to receive and from which device it wishes to receive it.
Macros are provided to obtain event classes from the data
returned by the XOpenDevice request. The names of these macros
correspond to the desired events, i.e. the DeviceKeyPress is
used to obtain the event class for DeviceKeyPress events. The
syntax of the macro invocation is:</p></div>
<div class="literalblock">
<div class="content">
<pre><code>DeviceKeyPress (device, event_type, event_class);
    device: DEVICE
    event_type: INT
    event_class: INT</code></pre>
</div></div>
<div class="paragraph"><p>The value returned in event_type is the value that will be
contained in the event type field of the XDeviceKeyPressEvent
when it is received by the client. The value returned in
event_class is the value that should be passed in making an
XSelectExtensionEvent request to receive DeviceKeyPress events.</p></div>
<div class="paragraph"><p>For DeviceButtonPress events, the client may specify whether or
not an implicit passive grab should be done when the button is
pressed. If the client wants to guarantee that it will receive
a DeviceButtonRelease event for each DeviceButtonPress event it
receives, it should specify the DeviceButtonPressGrab event
class as well as the DeviceButtonPress event class. This
restricts the client in that only one client at a time may
request DeviceButtonPress events from the same device and
window if any client specifies this class.</p></div>
<div class="paragraph"><p>If any client has specified the DeviceButtonPressGrab class,
any requests by any other client that specify the same device
and window and specify DeviceButtonPress or
DeviceButtonPressGrab will cause an Access error to be
generated.</p></div>
<div class="paragraph"><p>If only the DeviceButtonPress class is specified, no implicit
passive grab will be done when a button is pressed on the
device. Multiple clients may use this class to specify the same
device and window combination.</p></div>
<div class="paragraph"><p>A client may also specify the DeviceOwnerGrabButton class. If
it has specified both the DeviceButtonPressGrab and the
DeviceOwnerGrabButton classes, implicit passive grabs will
activate with owner_events set to True. If only the
DeviceButtonPressGrab class is specified, implicit passive
grabs will activate with owner_events set to False.</p></div>
<div class="paragraph"><p>The client may select DeviceMotion events only when a button is
down. It does this by specifying the event classes
Button1Motion through Button5Motion, or ButtonMotion. An input
device will only support as many button motion classes as it
has buttons.</p></div>

devices. The new pointer device may have a different number of
buttons than the old one did, or the new keyboard device may

characteristics. For example, a client program could allocate
an array based on the number of buttons on the pointer device,

indicies into that array. Changing the core devices could cause
such client programs to behave improperly or abnormally

<div class="paragraph"><p>The following describes the processing that occurs depending on
what constant you pass to the event-mode argument:</p></div>
<div class="ulist"><ul>
<li>
<p>
If the specified device is frozen by the client, event
     processing for that device continues as usual. If the

     of multiple separate grabs, AsyncThisDevice thaws for
     all. AsyncThisDevice has no effect if the specified

     not be grabbed by the client.
</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>
If the specified device is frozen and actively grabbed
     by the client, event processing for that device
     continues normally until the next button or key event is
     reported to the client. At this time, the specified
     device again appears to freeze. However, if the reported
     event causes the grab to be released, the specified
     device does not freeze. SyncThisDevice has no effect if
     the specified device is not frozen by the client or is
     not grabbed by the client.
</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>
If the specified device is actively grabbed by the
     client and is frozen as the result of an event having
     been sent to the client (either from the activation of a
     GrabDeviceButton or from a previous AllowDeviceEvents
     with mode SyncThisDevice, but not from a Grab), the grab
     is released and that event is completely reprocessed.
     This time, however, the request ignores any passive
     grabs at or above (towards the root) the grab-window of
     the grab just released. The request has no effect if the
     specified device is not grabbed by the client or if it
     is not frozen as the result of an event.

<li>
<p>
If the remaining devices are frozen by the client, event
     processing for them continues as usual. If the other
     devices are frozen multiple times by the client on
     behalf of multiple separate grabs, AsyncOtherDevices
     “thaws” for all. AsyncOtherDevices has no effect if the
     devices are not frozen by the client, but those devices
     need not be grabbed by the client.

If all devices are frozen by the client, event
     processing (for all devices) continues normally until
     the next button or key event is reported to the client
     for a grabbed device (button event for the grabbed
     device, key or motion event for the device), at which
     time the devices again appear to freeze. However, if the
     reported event causes the grab to be released, then the
     devices do not freeze (but if any device is still
     grabbed, then a subsequent event for it will still cause
     all devices to freeze). SyncAll has no effect unless all
     devices are frozen by the client. If any device is
     frozen twice by the client on behalf of two separate
     grabs, SyncAll "thaws" for both (but a subsequent freeze
     for SyncAll will only freeze each device once).

If all devices are frozen by the client, event
     processing (for all devices) continues normally. If any

If a window ID is assigned to the focus argument, it

     event from the device would normally be reported to this
     window or to one of its inferiors, the event is reported
     normally. Otherwise, the event is reported relative to
     the focus window.
</p>

<li>
<p>
If you assign PointerRoot to the focus argument, the

     of whatever screen the pointer is on at each input
     event. In this case, the revert-to argument is ignored.
</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>
If you assign FollowKeyboard to the focus argument, the
     focus window is dynamically taken to be the same as the
     focus of the X keyboard at each input event.
     The specified focus window must be viewable at the time
     of the request (else a Match error). If the focus window
     later becomes not viewable, the X server evaluates the
     revert-to argument to determine the new focus window.
</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>
If you assign RevertToParent to the revert-to argument,
     the focus reverts to the parent (or the closest viewable
     ancestor), and the new revert-to value is taken to be
     RevertToNone.
</p>
</li>
<li>

If you assign RevertToPointerRoot,

tablets or touchscreens) to indicate that a stylus has moved
into or out of contact with a positional sensing surface.</p></div>
<div class="paragraph"><p>The “source” of the event is the window the pointer is in. The
window with respect to which the event is normally reported is
found by looking up the hierarchy (starting with the source
window) for the first window on which any client has selected
interest in the event. The actual window used for reporting can
be modified by active grabs and by the focus window.The window
the event is reported with respect to is called the “event”
window.</p></div>
<div class="paragraph"><p>The root is the root window of the “source” window, and root-x
and root-y are the pointer coordinates relative to root&#8217;s
origin at the time of the event. Event is the “event” window.
If the event window is on the same screen as root, then event-x
and event-y are the pointer coordinates relative to the event
window&#8217;s origin. Otherwise, event-x and event-y are zero. If
the source window is an inferior of the event window, then
child is set to the child of the event window that is an
ancestor of (or is) the source window. Otherwise, it is set to
None. The state component gives the logical state of the
buttons on the core X pointer and modifier keys on the core X
keyboard just before the event. The device-state component
gives the state of the buttons and modifiers on the device
generating the event.</p></div>
