Stop using system properties to publish information about
the key character map path. Instead, we can retrieve it
on demand by asking the window manager.
It was possible to exhaust the supply of system properties
when repeatedly adding and removing input devices.

Bug: 5265529
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.

Calculate the velocity using the most recent touch sample as the
point of reference instead of the oldest. This change more heavily
weights recent touch samples and reduces the sample time window
used for calculation. This significantly improves the accuracy
of fling gesture detection.

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.

Velocity damping proved to be a bad idea because it would

Added a new PointerIcon API (hidden for now) for loading

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.

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.
Change-Id: I7b7ddacc724fb1306e1590dbaebb740d3130d7cd
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.

This patch adds a mechanism for capturing, filtering, transforming
and injecting input events at a very low level before the input
dispatcher attempts to deliver them to applications. At this time,
the mechanism is only intended to be used by the accessibility
system to implement built-in system-level accessibility affordances.
The accessibility input filter is currently just a stub.
It logs the input events receives and reinjects them unchanged,
except that it transforms KEYCODE_Q into KEYCODE_Z.
Currently, the accessibility input filter is installed whenever
accessibility is enabled. We'll probably want to change that
so it only enables the input filter when a screen reader is
installed and we want touch exploration.

The touch screen sometimes reports more than 10 pointers even though that's

Raised the limit to 16 pointers.
Bug: 3331247
The default behavior was to identify all touch devices as touch screens.
External devices that are plugged in are more likely to be touch pads
not attached to a screen. Changed the default to be a touch pad
and renamed some internal constants to avoid confusion.
A certain mouse happens to also behave like a touch pad. That caused
problems because we would see multiple concurrent traces of motion events
coming from the same input device so we would batch them up.
Added code to ensure that we don't batch events unless they come from
the same *source* in addition to coming from the same *device*.
Due to batching or misbehaving drivers, it's possible for the set of
pointer ids to be different from what we expect when it comes time to
split motion events across windows. As a result, we can generate motion
events with 0 pointers. When we try to deliver those events, we cause
an error in the InputTransport so we tear down the InputChannel and kill
the application.
Added code to check out assumption about pointer ids and drop the
event gracefully instead.
Patched up the tests to take into account the change in default behavior
for identifying touch screens and touch pads.

The ShortcutManager used to only receive the key code of the key event
that triggered the shortcut. This change now provides the shortcut
manager with the whole key event so it can look up the associated
character using the correct key character map.
To make this more efficient, added a mechanism for recycling
key events. At the moment it is only used by key events owned by the
system process, since clients of the existing API (such as Views)
might continue to hold on to key events after dispatch has finished so
they would break if the key event were recycled by the framework.

according to the display orientation by adding a new input device
configuration property called "keyboard.orientationAware".
Added a mechanism for overriding the key layout and key character
map in the input device configuration file using the new
"keyboard.layout" and "keyboard.characterMap" properties.
Also added "trackball.orientationAware", "touch.orientationAware" and
"touch.deviceType" configuration properties.
Rewrote the configuration property reading code in native code
so that it can be used by EventHub and other components.
Added basic support for installable idc, kl, and kcm files
in /data/system/devices. However, there is no provision for
copying files there yet.
Disabled long-press character pickers on full keyboards so that
key repeating works as expected.

Added new key maps for external keyboards. These maps are intended to
be shared across devices by inheriting the "keyboards.mk" product
makefile as part of the device's product definition.
One of the trickier changes here was to unwind some code in
MetaKeyKeyListener that assumed that only the low 8 bits of the meta key
state were actually used. The new code abandons bitshifts in favor
of simple conditionals that are probably easier to read anyways.
The special meta key state constants used by MetaKeyKeyListener
are now (@hide) defined in KeyEvent now so as to make it clearer that they
share the same code space even if those codes are not valid for KeyEvents.
The EventHub now takes care of detecting the appropriate key layout
map and key character map when the device is added and sets system
properties accordingly. This avoids having duplicate code in
KeyCharacterMap to probe for the appropriate key character map
although the current probing mechanism has been preserved for legacy
reasons just in case.
Added support for tracking caps lock, num lock and scroll lock and
turning their corresponding LEDs on and off as needed.
The key character map format will need to be updated to correctly support
PC style external keyboard semantics related to modifier keys.
That will come in a later change so caps lock doesn't actually do
anything right now except turn the shiny LEDs on and off...
Added a list of symbolic key names to KeyEvent and improved the toString()
output for debug diagnosis. Having this list in a central place in the
framework also allows us to remove it from Monkey so there is one less
thing to maintain when we add new keycodes.

This change fixes several issues where events would be dropped in the
input dispatch pipeline in such a way that the dispatcher could not
accurately track the state of the input device.
Given more robust tracking, we can now also provide robust cancelation
of input events in cases where an application might otherwise become
out of sync with the event stream due to ANR, app switch, policy decisions,
or forced focus transitions.
Pruned some of the input dispatcher log output.
Moved the responsibility for calling intercept*BeforeQueueing into
the input dispatcher instead of the input reader and added support for
early interception of injected events for events coming from trusted
sources. This enables behaviors like injection of media keys while
the screen is off, haptic feedback of injected virtual keys, so injected
events become more "first class" in a way.

Refactored the input reader so that each raw input protocol is handled

This significantly re-works the native key dispatching code to
allow events to be pre-dispatched to the current IME before
being processed by native code. It introduces one new public
API, which must be called after retrieving an event if the app
wishes for it to be pre-dispatched.
Currently the native code will only do pre-dispatching of
system keys, to avoid significant overhead for gaming input.
This should be improved to be smarted, filtering for only
keys that the IME is interested in. Unfortunately IMEs don't
currently provide this information. :p

And also:

- APIs to tell the app when its window resizes and needs to be redrawn.
- API to tell the app the content rectangle of its window (to layout
around the IME or status bar).
There is still a problem with IME interaction -- we need a way for the
app to deliver events to the IME before it handles them, so that for
example the back key will close the IME instead of finishing the app.
