Bug ID: 286155
Summary: hidraw/uhid modes documentation implementation
inconsistency
Product: Base System
Version: 15.0-CURRENT
Hardware: Any
OS: Any
Status: New
Severity: Affects Some People
Priority: ---
Component: usb
Assignee: usb@FreeBSD.org
Reporter: ihor.youw@gmail.com
As per hidraw(4) documentation:
https://github.com/freebsd/freebsd-src/blob/a962800a09a45b8f702ebd1a06b8f20bc84e97b1/share/man/man4/hidraw.4#L266
> In the hidraw mode, the first byte should be set to 0 and the report data itself should begin at the second byte. In the uhid(4) mode, the report data should begin at the first byte. **The modes can be switched with issuing one of HIDIOCGRDESC or HID_GET_REPORT_DESC ioctl(2) accordingly**.
The fact is that HID_GET_REPORT_DESC switches mode to uhid:
https://github.com/freebsd/freebsd-src/blob/d8cf519492523f6dd239ab153029db62749afa52/sys/dev/hid/hidraw.c#L643
but HIDIOCGRDESC doesn't perfom anything like that:
https://github.com/freebsd/freebsd-src/blob/d8cf519492523f6dd239ab153029db62749afa52/sys/dev/hid/hidraw.c#L820
Either documentation or implementation has to be updated.
