Thanks for the CC. FTR, this is expected userspace behaviour, the device state is only looked at during SYN_REPORT. Where you send event E=1 and E=0 in the same frame, the state at SYN_REPORT time is 0, the 1 never happened. The only device we (as in: libinput) make an exception for here are keyboards because too many drivers get it wrong and it's too hard to fix all of them. But especially for touch devices (and tablets!) we don't really have any choice but to look at the state of the device at the end of the frame. So, yes, this patch is needed but I agree with Dmitry that you should only send this for the special case that requires it. Cheers, Peter

I'm not really familiar with the input framework, so thanks for the clarification. In that patch _sync() is 'forced' if there is any previous event in the report, but from what you say, I should only sync if one of the previous events is a touch-down, so a transition E=1? right? Regards, Loic

If both touch events and release are part of the same report, userspace will not consider it as a touch-down & touch-up but as a non-action. That can happen on resume when 'buffered' events are dequeued in a row. Make sure that release always causes previous events to be synced before being reported.
