When an input filter is installed, the 35 * system's behavior changes as follows: 36 * <ul> 37 * <li>Input events are first delivered to the {@link WindowManagerPolicy} 38 * interception methods before queuing as usual. This critical step takes care of managing 39 * the power state of the device and handling wake keys.</li> 40 * <li>Input events are then asynchronously delivered to the input filter's 41 * {@link #onInputEvent(InputEvent)} method instead of being enqueued for dispatch to 42 * applications as usual. The input filter only receives input events that were 43 * generated by an input device; the input filter will not receive input events that were 44 * injected into the system by other means, such as by instrumentation.</li> 45 * <li>The input filter processes and optionally transforms the stream of events. For example, 46 * it may transform a sequence of motion events representing an accessibility gesture into 47 * a different sequence of motion events, key presses or other system-level interactions. 48 * The input filter can send events to be dispatched by calling 49 * {@link #sendInputEvent(InputEvent)} and passing appropriate policy flags for the 50 * input event.</li> 51 * </ul> 52 * </p> 53 * <h3>The importance of input event consistency</h3> 54 * <p> 55 * The input filter mechanism is very low-level. At a minimum, it needs to ensure that it 56 * sends an internally consistent stream of input events to the dispatcher. There are 57 * very important invariants to be maintained. 58 * </p><p> 59 * For example, if a key down is sent, a corresponding key up should also be sent eventually. 60 * Likewise, for touch events, each pointer must individually go down with 61 * {@link MotionEvent#ACTION_DOWN} or {@link MotionEvent#ACTION_POINTER_DOWN} and then 62 * individually go up with {@link MotionEvent#ACTION_POINTER_UP} or {@link MotionEvent#ACTION_UP} 63 * and the sequence of pointer ids used must be consistent throughout the gesture. 64 * </p><p> 65 * Sometimes a filter may wish to cancel a previously dispatched key or motion. It should 66 * use {@link KeyEvent#FLAG_CANCELED} or {@link MotionEvent#ACTION_CANCEL} accordingly. 67 * </p><p> 68 * The input filter must take into account the fact that the input events coming from different 69 * devices or even different sources all consist of distinct streams of input. 70 * Use {@link InputEvent#getDeviceId()} and {@link InputEvent#getSource()} to identify 71 * the source of the event and its semantics. There may be multiple sources of keys, 72 * touches and other input: they must be kept separate. 73 * </p> 74 * <h3>Policy flags</h3> 75 * <p> 76 * Input events received from the dispatcher and sent to the dispatcher have policy flags 77 * associated with them. Policy flags control some functions of the dispatcher. 78 * </p><p> 79 * The early policy interception decides whether an input event should be delivered 80 * to applications or dropped. The policy indicates its decision by setting the 81 * {@link WindowManagerPolicy#FLAG_PASS_TO_USER} policy flag. The input filter may 82 * sometimes receive events that do not have this flag set. It should take note of 83 * the fact that the policy intends to drop the event, clean up its state, and 84 * then send appropriate cancellation events to the dispatcher if needed. 85 * </p><p> 86 * For example, suppose the input filter is processing a gesture and one of the touch events 87 * it receives does not have the {@link WindowManagerPolicy#FLAG_PASS_TO_USER} flag set. 88 * The input filter should clear its internal state about the gesture and then send key or 89 * motion events to the dispatcher to cancel any keys or pointers that are down. 90 * </p><p> 91 * Corollary: Events that get sent to the dispatcher should usually include the 92 * {@link WindowManagerPolicy#FLAG_PASS_TO_USER} flag. Otherwise, they will be dropped! 93 * </p><p> 94 * It may be prudent to disable automatic key repeating for synthetic key events 95 * by setting the {@link WindowManagerPolicy#FLAG_DISABLE_KEY_REPEAT} policy flag. 96 * </p> 97 * 98 * @hide 99 */ 100 public abstract class InputFilter extends IInputFilter.Stub { 101 private static final int MSG_INSTALL = 1; 102 private static final int MSG_UNINSTALL = 2; 103 private static final int MSG_INPUT_EVENT = 3; 104 105 // Consistency verifiers for debugging purposes. 106 private final InputEventConsistencyVerifier mInboundInputEventConsistencyVerifier = 107 InputEventConsistencyVerifier.isInstrumentationEnabled() ? 108 new InputEventConsistencyVerifier(this, 109 InputEventConsistencyVerifier.FLAG_RAW_DEVICE_INPUT, 110 "InputFilter#InboundInputEventConsistencyVerifier") : null; 111 private final InputEventConsistencyVerifier mOutboundInputEventConsistencyVerifier = 112 InputEventConsistencyVerifier.isInstrumentationEnabled() ? 113 new InputEventConsistencyVerifier(this, 114 InputEventConsistencyVerifier.FLAG_RAW_DEVICE_INPUT, 115 "InputFilter#OutboundInputEventConsistencyVerifier") : null; 116 117 private final H mH; 118 119 private IInputFilterHost mHost; 120 121 /** 122 * Creates the input filter. 123 * 124 * @param looper The looper to run callbacks on. 125 */ 126 public InputFilter(Looper looper) { 127 mH = new H(looper); 128 } 129 130 /** 131 * Called when the input filter is installed. 132 * This method is guaranteed to be non-reentrant. 133 * 134 * @param host The input filter host environment. 135 */ 136 public final void install(IInputFilterHost host) { 137 mH.obtainMessage(MSG_INSTALL, host).sendToTarget(); 138 } 139 140 /** 141 * Called when the input filter is uninstalled. 142 * This method is guaranteed to be non-reentrant. 143 */ 144 public final void uninstall() { 145 mH.obtainMessage(MSG_UNINSTALL).sendToTarget(); 146 } 147 148 /** 149 * Called to enqueue the input event for filtering. 150 * The event will be recycled after the input filter processes it. 151 * This method is guaranteed to be non-reentrant. 152 * 153 * @param event The input event to enqueue. 154 */ 155 final public void filterInputEvent(InputEvent event, int policyFlags) { 156 mH.obtainMessage(MSG_INPUT_EVENT, policyFlags, 0, event).sendToTarget(); 157 } 158 159 /** 160 * Sends an input event to the dispatcher. 161 * 162 * @param event The input event to publish. 163 * @param policyFlags The input event policy flags. 164 */ 165 public void sendInputEvent(InputEvent event, int policyFlags) { 166 if (event == null) { 167 throw new IllegalArgumentException("event must not be null"); 168 } 169 if (mHost == null) { 170 throw new IllegalStateException("Cannot send input event because the input filter " + 171 "is not installed."); 172 } 173 if (mOutboundInputEventConsistencyVerifier != null) { 174 mOutboundInputEventConsistencyVerifier.onInputEvent(event, 0); 175 } 176 try { 177 mHost.sendInputEvent(event, policyFlags); 178 } catch (RemoteException re) { 179 /* ignore */ 180 } 181 } 182 183 /** 184 * Called when an input event has been received from the dispatcher. 185 * <p> 186 * The default implementation sends the input event back to the dispatcher, unchanged. 187 * </p><p> 188 * The event will be recycled when this method returns.
