[PATCH v3] i8042: Add debug_kbd option

From: cpaul
Date: Fri Jun 26 2015 - 18:28:49 EST


From: Stephen Chandler Paul <cpaul@xxxxxxxxxx>

A big problem with the current i8042 debugging option is that it outputs
data going to and from the keyboard by default. As a result, many dmesg
logs uploaded by users will unintentionally contain sensitive information
such as their password, as such it's probably a good idea not to output
data coming from the keyboard unless specifically enabled by the user.

That patch was not working at all like I thought it was, the results on the
machine I tested it on were very misleading so I apologize for any trouble that
may have caused! I've done more thorough testing of this, and it should work
perfectly on any machine.

Changes
* Bus structs are shared between devices, whoops. Now when the notifier goes
off we check two things:
* That the device actually belongs to the i8042 platform driver. This is
something that's difficult to reproduce, since devices on the i8042 bus
are usually handled by the plaform driver. If they don't happen to be
however (which currently I've only seen with ps2emu, a kernel module I'm
working on to replay PS/2 devices in the kernel), then we make the false
assumption the port_data variable points to an i8042_port struct, and
very likely crash the machine or worse.
* That the IRQ of the port is equivalent to that of the KBD port, so that
we only mask the interrupts coming from the keyboard.
