[PATCH 5.4 19/78] HID: hidraw: Fix returning EPOLLOUT from hidraw_poll
From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Tue Jan 14 2020 - 05:04:38 EST
From: Marcel Holtmann <marcel@xxxxxxxxxxxx>
commit 9f3b61dc1dd7b81e99e7ed23776bb64a35f39e1a upstream.
When polling a connected /dev/hidrawX device, it is useful to get the
EPOLLOUT when writing is possible. Since writing is possible as soon as
the device is connected, always return it.
Right now EPOLLOUT is only returned when there are also input reports
are available. This works if devices start sending reports when
connected, but some HID devices might need an output report first before
sending any input reports. This change will allow using EPOLLOUT here as
well.
