    scripts: update makeheader script for the _EVDEVK keysym defines As of xorgproto commit 5dbb5b76597f [1], the 0x10081XXX keycode range is defined for direct evdev kernel keycode mapping. For example, KEY_MACRO1 (0x290) is mapped to 0x10081290. The format of the #define lines for these keys is stable to allow for parsing: #define XF86XK_FooBar _EVDEVK(0x123) /* optional comment */ Update our script so we detect these new lines. Our keysym generation is a two-step process: makeheader and then makekeys. Replacing the key with its full value in the makeheader script means we don't have to update makekeys to handle the _EVDEVK macro and our header file is fully resolved.

  • libxkbcommon

    libxkbcommon is a keyboard keymap compiler and support library which processes a reduced subset of keymaps as defined by the XKB (X Keyboard Extension) specification. It also contains a module for handling Compose and dead keys and a separate library for listing available keyboard layouts.

    Quick Guide

    See Quick Guide.

    Building

    libxkbcommon is built with Meson:

    meson setup build
    ninja -C build

    To build for use with Wayland, you can disable X11 support while still using the X11 keyboard configuration resource files thusly:

    meson setup build \
        -Denable-x11=false \
        -Dxkb-config-root=/usr/share/X11/xkb \
        -Dx-locale-root=/usr/share/X11/locale
    ninja -C build

    API

    While libxkbcommon’s API is somewhat derived from the classic XKB API as found in X11/extensions/XKB.h and friends, it has been substantially reworked to expose fewer internal details to clients.

    See the API Documentation.

    Dataset

    libxkbcommon does not distribute a keymap dataset itself, other than for testing purposes. The most common dataset is xkeyboard-config, which is used by all current distributions for their X11 XKB data. More information on xkeyboard-config is available here:

    https://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Software/XKeyboardConfig

    The dataset for Compose is distributed in libX11, as part of the X locale data.

    Relation to X11
