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 reStructuredText 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.

Commit d469647b ("Input: simplify event handling logic") introduced code that would set handler->events() method to either input_handler_events_filter() or input_handler_events_default() or input_handler_events_null(), depending on the kind of input handler (a filter or a regular one) we are dealing with. Unfortunately this breaks cases when we try to re-register the same filter (as is the case with sysrq handler): after initial registration the handler will have 2 event handling methods defined, and will run afoul of the check in input_handler_check_methods(): input: input_handler_check_methods: only one event processing method can be defined (sysrq) sysrq: Failed to register input handler, error -22 Fix this by adding handle_events() method to input_handle structure and setting it up when registering a new input handle according to event handling methods defined in associated input_handler structure, thus avoiding modifying the input_handler structure.
