Hi Dmitry,

>I am really confused about this distinction. Could you please elaborate why wacom driver only supports 0x056a (and, curiously, some Lenovo) devices.
We want 0x2d1F to work with ***ONLY*** with the generic HID driver because the every recent firmware is designed for that; no help is needed from other sides.
In contrast, the most of the devices is required help from other sides. Therefore, the devices with VID 0x2D1F devices are supposed to run alone and separated out from our brand shipped products. 
I don't know how much we can go further to tell you about this -because of our business, but 0x2D1F was obtained such purpose. Your understanding is much appreciated.

Thanks,

Tats

I am really confused about this distinction. Could you please elaborate why wacom driver only supports 0x056a (and, curiously, some Lenovo) devices.

Thanks.

Do these really need to be controlled separately from the main touchcsreen orientation?

We already have touchscreen-inverted-x/y defined in Documentation/devicetree/bindings/input/touchscreen/touchscreen.yaml,
why are they not sufficient?

I am still confused of the notion of flipped distance.

You are still parsing raw data. The point of HID is to provide common framework for scaling raw values.

Thanks.
