To support this feature, the input dispatcher now allows input
events to be acknowledged out-of-order. As a result, the
consumer can choose to defer handling an input event from one
device (because it is building a big batch) while continuing
to handle input events from other devices.
The InputEventReceiver now sends a notification when a batch
is pending. The ViewRoot handles this notification by scheduling
a draw on the next sync. When the draw happens, the InputEventReceiver
is instructed to consume all pending batched input events, the
input event queue is fully processed (as much as possible),
and then the ViewRoot performs traversals as usual.
With these changes in place, the input dispatch latency is
consistently less than one frame as long as the application itself
isn't stalled. Input events are delivered to the application
as soon as possible and are handled as soon as possible. In practice,
it is no longer possible for an application to build up a huge
backlog of touch events.
This is part of a series of changes to improve input system pipelining.

This change enables the input dispatcher to send multiple touch
events to an application without waiting for them to be acknowledged.
Essentially this is a variation on the old streaming optimization
but it is much more comprehensive. Event dispatch will stall as
soon as 0.5sec of unacknowledged events are accumulated or a
focused event (such as a key event) needs to be delivered.
Streaming input events makes a tremendous difference in application
performance. The next step will be to enable batching of input
events on the client side once again.

Rewrote the velocity tracker to fit a polynomial curve
to pointer movements using least squares linear regression.
The velocity is simply the first derivative of this polynomial.
Clients can also obtain an Estimator that describes the
complete terms of the estimating polynomial including
the coefficient of determination which provides a measure
of the quality of the fit (confidence).
Enhanced PointerLocation to display the movement curve predicted
by the estimator in addition to the velocity vector.
By default, the algorithm computes a 2nd degree (quadratic)
polynomial based on a 100ms recent history horizon.

Bug: 5064702
Introduced the concept of an InputListener to further decouple
the InputReader from the InputDispatcher. The InputListener
exposes just the minimum interface that the InputReader needs
to communicate with the outside world. The InputReader
passes arguments to the InputListener by reference, which makes
it easy to queue them up.
Consolidated all of the InputReader locks into one simple global
Mutex. The reason this wasn't done before was due to potential
re-entrance in outbound calls to the InputDispatcher. To fix this,
the InputReader now queues up all of the events it wants to send
using a QueuedInputListener, then flushes them outside of the
critical section after all of the event processing is finished.
Removing all of the InputMapper locks greatly simplifies the
implementation.
Added tests for new stylus features such as buttons, tool types,
and hovering.
Added some helpers to BitSet32 to handle common code patterns
like finding the first marked bit and clearing it.
Fixed a bug in VelocityTracker where the wrong pointer trace
could get cleared when handling ACTION_POINTER_DOWN. Oops.
Changed PointerCoords so it no longer stores useless zero
axis values. Removed editAxisValue because it is not very
useful when all zero value axes are absent and therefore
cannot be edited in place.
Added dispatch of stylus hover events.
Added support for distance and tool types.

This change fixes how the Android EGL layer overrides the size and
format of an ANativeWindow in eglCreateWindowSurface. The new behavior
is to leave the size untouched when overriding the format. The previous
behavior was to reset the ANativeWindow to use the default size set by
the ANativeWindow implementation.
It also adds two new 'perform' methods to the ANativeWindow interface:
set_buffers_dimensions and set_buffers_format, and redefines the
behavior of set_buffers_geometry to be the combination of these two new
methods.
Additionally, this change adds an error check for the return value of
the new native_window_set_buffers_format call, which required adding a
(stub) handler for to FramebufferNativeWindow.

- renderscript now calls EGL directly instead of relying on this function
- surfaceflinger also does its own EGLConfig selection
- selectConfigForPixelFormat stays for legacy reason (many tests use it) but
it now only tries to match the alpha channel of the format rather than the
format itself.
this will allow implementations who don't support the exact formats
defined in the HAL to work properly.

Fixed a starvation problem in the native Looper's sendMessage
implementation which caused new messages to be posted ahead
of old messages sent with sendMessageDelayed.
Redesigned the touch pad gestures to be defined in terms of
more fluid finger / spot movements. The objective is to reinforce
the natural mapping between fingers and spots which means there
must not be any discontinuities in spot motion relative to
the fingers.
Removed the SpotController stub and folded its responsibilities
into PointerController.

Some drivers report individual finger updates one at a time
instead of all at once. When 10 fingers are down, this can
cause the framework to have to handle 10 times as many events
each with 10 times as much data. Applications like
PointerLocation would get significantly bogged down by all
of the redundant samples.
This change coalesces samples that are closely spaced in time,
before they are dispatched, as part of the motion event batching
protocol.
Increased the size of the InputChannel shared memory buffer so
that applications can catch up faster if they accumulate a
backlog of samples.

Replaced VelocityTracker with a faster and more accurate
native implementation. This avoids the duplicate maintenance
overhead of having two implementations.
The new algorithm requires that the sample duration be at least
10ms in order to contribute to the velocity calculation. This
ensures that the velocity is not severely overestimated when
samples arrive in bursts.
The new algorithm computes the exponentially weighted moving
average using weights based on the relative duration of successive
sample periods.
The new algorithm is also more careful about how it handles
individual pointers going down or up and their effects on the
collected movement traces. The intent is to preserve the last
known velocity of pointers as they go up while also ensuring
that other motion samples do not count twice in that case.

1. Single finger tap performs a click.
2. Single finger movement moves the pointer (hovers).
3. Button press plus movement performs click or drag.
While dragging, the pointer follows the finger that is moving
fastest. This is important if there are additional fingers
down on the touch pad for the purpose of applying force
to an integrated button underneath.
4. Two fingers near each other moving in the same direction
are coalesced as a swipe gesture under the pointer.
5. Two or more fingers moving in arbitrary directions are
transformed into touches in the vicinity of the pointer.
This makes scale/zoom and rotate gestures possible.
Added a native VelocityTracker implementation to enable intelligent
switching of the active pointer during drags.

Added the concept of pointer properties in a MotionEvent.
This is currently used to track the pointer tool type to enable
applications to distinguish finger touches from a stylus.
Button states are also reported to application as part of touch events.
There are no new actions for detecting changes in button states.
The application should instead query the button state from the
MotionEvent and take appropriate action as needed.
A good time to check the button state is on ACTION_DOWN.
As a side-effect, applications that do not support multiple buttons
will treat primary, secondary and tertiary buttons identically
for all touch events.
The back button on the mouse is mapped to KEYCODE_BACK
and the forward button is mapped to KEYCODE_FORWARD.
Added basic plumbing for the secondary mouse button to invoke
the context menu, particularly in lists.
Added clamp and split methods on MotionEvent to take care of
common filtering operations so we don't have them scattered
in multiple places across the framework.

First step of improving app screen size compatibility mode. When
running in compat mode, an application's windows are scaled up on
the screen rather than being small with 1:1 pixels.
Currently we scale the application to fill the entire screen, so
don't use an even pixel scaling. Though this may have some
negative impact on the appearance (it looks okay to me), it has a
big benefit of allowing us to now treat these apps as normal
full-screens apps and do the normal transition animations as you
move in and out and around in them.
This introduces fun stuff in the input system to take care of
modifying pointer coordinates to account for the app window
surface scaling. The input dispatcher is told about the scale
that is being applied to each window and, when there is one,
adjusts pointer events appropriately as they are being sent
to the transport.
Also modified is CompatibilityInfo, which has been greatly
simplified to not be so insane and incomprehendible. It is
now simple -- when constructed it determines if the given app
is compatible with the current screen size and density, and
that is that.
There are new APIs on ActivityManagerService to put applications
that we would traditionally consider compatible with larger screens
in compatibility mode. This is the start of a facility to have
a UI affordance for a user to switch apps in and out of
compatibility.
To test switching of modes, there is a new variation of the "am"
command to do this: am screen-compat [on|off] [package]
This mode switching has the fundamentals of restarting activities
when it is changed, though the state still needs to be persisted
and the overall mode switch cleaned up.
For the few small apps I have tested, things mostly seem to be
working well. I know of one problem with the text selection
handles being drawn at the wrong position because at some point
the window offset is being scaled incorrectly. There are
probably other similar issues around the interaction between
two windows because the different window coordinate spaces are
done in a hacky way instead of being formally integrated into
the window manager layout process.
