* Get rid of the `canToggleGSensor` Device cap, it's now mandatory for `hasGSensor` devices. (This means Kindles can now toggle the gyro, fix#9136).
* This also means that `Device:toggleGSensor` is now implemented by `Generic`.
* Update the Screen & Gyro rotation constants to be clearer (c.f., https://github.com/koreader/koreader-base/pull/1568) (/!\ This might conceivably break some `rotation_map` user-patches).
* Input: Move the platform-specific gyro handling to Device implementations, and let Input only handle a single, custom protocol (`EV_MSC:MSC_GYRO`).
* Input: Refine the `rotation_map` disable method implemented in 43b021d37c. Instead of directly poking at the internal field, use a new method, `disableRotationMap` (/!\ Again, this might break some `rotation_map` user-patches).
* Input: Minor tweaks to event adjust hooks to make them more modular, allowing the Kobo implementation to build and use a single composite hook. API compatibility maintained with wrappers.
Adjust image colors for PocketBook color devices to supply
brighter image colors. Make it a config option so we can
adjust it to a sensible default for all devices later.
Also enable HW Dithering for color devices: the dithering
flag allows us to figure out if what is viewed is an
image or text. This way we can enable color rendering
or not based on the dithering flag.
It possibly historically never made it out of InkView in the past, but
apparently that's no longer the case and/or every other key behaves the
same way anyway, so it's harmless at worst.
Fix#9791
(This involves moving it to the instance object to avoid inheritance).
Pocketbook: Disable rotation_map on the Era (fix#9556)
It would appear that InkView handles the translation for us, now...
Get rid of the doc & seqtext fields, as they are not actually used (nor
are they particularly useful, the event handler's name should be pretty
self-explanatory).
Also, tweak the key_events documentation to highlight the quirks of the
API, especially as far as array nesting is involved...
Random drive-by cleanup of the declarations of key_events & ges_events
to re-use the existing instance object (now that we know they're sane
;p) for tables with a single member (less GC pressure).
* Added a new plugin external-keyboard. It listens to USB events. When keyboard is plugged in or plugged out, it updates device and input configuration accordingly.
* Added new fake events UsbDevicePlugIn and UsbDevicePlugOut that are emitted when a device is connected to a book reader that plays the role of USB host. The usage of the existing events UsbPlugIn and UsbPlugOut has not changed - they are used when a reader is connected to a host. The koreader-base has a related PR for those events.
* Did a small refactoring of initialization for the modules FocusManager and InputText. They check device keyboard capabilities on their when the module is first loaded and store it. Some of the initialization code has been extracted into functions, so that we can re-initialize them when keyboard is (dis)connected.
* Initial implementation centered around text input, and tested with USB keyboards on devices with OTG support.
* Said OTG shenanigans are so far supported on devices with debugfs & the chipidea driver, or sunxi devices.
* Iterate over varargs directly via select if possible
* Use table.pack otherwise (https://github.com/koreader/koreader-base/pull/1535).
* This allows us to simplify a few Logger calls, as logger now handles nil values.
This should be fairly unintrusive, but still noticeable enough without having to watch the battery gauge like a hawk, or resort to actual monitoring via kernel logs and/or usb meter and/or multimeter...
Basically:
* Use `extend` for class definitions
* Use `new` for object instantiations
That includes some minor code cleanups along the way:
* Updated `Widget`'s docs to make the semantics clearer.
* Removed `should_restrict_JIT` (it's been dead code since https://github.com/koreader/android-luajit-launcher/pull/283)
* Minor refactoring of LuaSettings/LuaData/LuaDefaults/DocSettings to behave (mostly, they are instantiated via `open` instead of `new`) like everything else and handle inheritance properly (i.e., DocSettings is now a proper LuaSettings subclass).
* Default to `WidgetContainer` instead of `InputContainer` for stuff that doesn't actually setup key/gesture events.
* Ditto for explicit `*Listener` only classes, make sure they're based on `EventListener` instead of something uselessly fancier.
* Unless absolutely necessary, do not store references in class objects, ever; only values. Instead, always store references in instances, to avoid both sneaky inheritance issues, and sneaky GC pinning of stale references.
* ReaderUI: Fix one such issue with its `active_widgets` array, with critical implications, as it essentially pinned *all* of ReaderUI's modules, including their reference to the `Document` instance (i.e., that was a big-ass leak).
* Terminal: Make sure the shell is killed on plugin teardown.
* InputText: Fix Home/End/Del physical keys to behave sensibly.
* InputContainer/WidgetContainer: If necessary, compute self.dimen at paintTo time (previously, only InputContainers did, which might have had something to do with random widgets unconcerned about input using it as a baseclass instead of WidgetContainer...).
* OverlapGroup: Compute self.dimen at *init* time, because for some reason it needs to do that, but do it directly in OverlapGroup instead of going through a weird WidgetContainer method that it was the sole user of.
* ReaderCropping: Under no circumstances should a Document instance member (here, self.bbox) risk being `nil`ed!
* Kobo: Minor code cleanups.
* UIManager: Support more specialized update modes for corner-cases:
* A2, which we'll use for the VirtualKeyboards keys (they'd... inadvertently switched to UI with the highlight refactor).
* NO_MERGE variants of ui & partial (for sunxi). Use `[ui]` in ReaderHighlight's popup, because of a Sage kernel bug that could otherwise make it translucent, sometimes completely so (*sigh*).
* UIManager: Assorted code cleanups & simplifications.
* Logger & dbg: Unify logging style, and code cleanups.
* SDL: Unbreak suspend/resume outside of the emulator (fix#9567).
* NetworkMgr: Cache the network status, and allow it to be queried. (Used by AutoSuspend to avoid repeatedly poking the system when computing the standby schedule delay).
* OneTimeMigration: Don't forget about `NETWORK_PROXY` & `STARDICT_DATA_DIR` when migrating `defaults.persistent.lua` (fix#9573)
* WakeupMgr: Workaround an apparent limitation of the RTC found on i.MX5 Kobo devices, where setting a wakealarm further than UINT16_MAX seconds in the future would apparently overflow and wraparound... (fix#8039, many thanks to @yfede for the extensive deep-dive and for actually accurately pinpointing the issue!).
* Kobo: Handle standby transitions at full CPU clock speeds, in order to limit the latency hit.
* UIManager: Properly quit on reboot & exit. This ensures our exit code is preserved, as we exit on our own terms (instead of being killed by the init system). This is important on platforms where exit codes are semantically meaningful (e.g., Kobo).
* UIManager: Speaking of reboot & exit, make sure the Screensaver shows in all circumstances (e.g., autoshutdown, re: #9542)), and that there aren't any extraneous refreshes triggered. (Additionally, fix a minor regression since #9448 about tracking this very transient state on Kobo & Cervantes).
* Kindle: ID the upcoming Scribe.
* Bump base (https://github.com/koreader/koreader-base/pull/1524)
* Handle the power button input device
* Handle the charging LED properly
* Handle the new Wi-Fi chip properly
* Handle frontlight warmth adjustments
* Handle the battery gauge properly
* Bump base (a lot of third-party updates) [https://github.com/koreader/koreader-base/pull/1523]
* Bump android-luajit-launcher to match the LuaJIT update [https://github.com/koreader/android-luajit-launcher/pull/386]
Fix#9552 (many thanks to @Bartvelp for bearing with my stupid tests ;)).
* This removes support for the following deprecated constants: `DTAP_ZONE_FLIPPING`, `DTAP_ZONE_BOOKMARK`, `DCREREADER_CONFIG_DEFAULT_FONT_GAMMA`
* The "Advanced settings" panel now highlights modified values in bold (think about:config in Firefox ;)).
* LuaData: Isolate global table lookup shenanigans, and fix a few issues in unused-in-prod codepaths.
* CodeStyle: Require module locals for Lua/C modules, too.
* ScreenSaver: Actually garbage collect our widget on close (ScreenSaver itself is not an instantiated object).
* DateTimeWidget: Code cleanups to ensure child widgets can be GC'ed.
* ImageViewer: Minor code cleanups
* GestureDetector: Fix the `distance` field of `two_finger_pan` & `two_finger_swipe` gestures so that it's no longer the double of the actual distance traveled. Get rid of existing workarounds throughout the codebase that had to deal with this quirk.
* Android: Make sure sdcv can find the STL
* DocCache: Be less greedy when serializing to disk, and only do that for the *current* document ;).
* CanvasContext: Explicitly document API quirks.
* Fontlist: Switch the on-disk Persist format to zstd (it's ever so slightly faster).
* Bump base for https://github.com/koreader/koreader-base/pull/1515 (fix#9506)
* Kobo: Make sure checkUnexpectedWakeup won't run between scheduled
suspend calls
Because of the suspend_wait_timeout, a previously scheduled check *could* shortcircuit a suspend scheduled a tiny bit later by a real Power event.
This led to fun breakage when you plugged/unplugged a "sleeping" device, for instance.
Fix#9457
* And clear up the unexpected_wakeup_count semantics
Bits of an older design seeped through and were causing weird corner-cases...
