Why would not you? Let's say you have a drawing application running in
guest that can make use of tool types. Why would not you want to tell it
that the tool user is currently using is in fact a pen and not finger?

Depends on if you do straight pass-through from the host side or not. If
you stack does palm rejection before passing the data through then you
would not see MT_TOOL_PALM in guest.

evtest would show it to you. Or you can query input device yourself
(EVIOCGABS iotcl).

Please make it
input_set_capability(mtouch, EV_KEY, BTN_TOUCH);

and drop all __set_bit()s.

Does that mean that your backend does not reliably report release of
contacts?

Thanks.
