Linux mainline fork with MSM8998 patches | https://mainline.space | Currently supported devices:
OnePlus 5/5T, Xiaomi Mi 6, F(x)tec Pro¹ (2019 QX1000 model) & Sony Xperia XZ Premium (UNTESTED!)
When a scancode is manually remapped that previously was not handled as key, then the old usage type was incorrectly reused. This caused issues on a "04b3:301b IBM Corp. SK-8815 Keyboard" which has marked some of its keys with an invalid HID usage. These invalid usage keys are being ignored since support for USB programmable buttons was added. The scancodes are however remapped explicitly by the systemd hwdb to the keycodes that are printed on the physical buttons. During this mapping step the existing usage is retrieved which will be found with a default type of 0 (EV_SYN) instead of EV_KEY. The events with the correct code but EV_SYN type are not forwarded to userspace. This also leads to a kernel oops when trying to print the report descriptor via debugfs. hid_resolv_event() tries to resolve a EV_SYN event with an EV_KEY code which leads to an out-of-bounds access in the EV_SYN names array.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
