CYAPA(4) Kernel Interfaces Manual CYAPA(4) NAME cyapa -- Cypress APA trackpad with I2C interface driver SYNOPSIS To compile this driver into the kernel, place the following lines into the kernel configuration file: device cyapa device ig4 device iicbus Alternatively, to load the driver as a module at boot time, place the following line in loader.conf(5): cyapa_load="YES" ig4_load="YES" On many Chromebook models this driver can be automatically configured with the help of the chromebook_platform(4) driver. Alternatively, the cyapa driver can be manually configured in /boot/device.hints: hint.cyapa.0.at="iicbus0" hint.cyapa.0.addr="0xCE" hint.cyapa.1.at="iicbus1" hint.cyapa.1.addr="0xCE" DESCRIPTION The cyapa driver provides support for the Cypress APA trackpad. It em- ulates the IntelliMouse PS/2 protocol. It supports basic mouse ioctls, so that moused(8) is supported properly. Trackpad layout 2/3 1/3 +--------------------+------------+ | | Middle | | | Button | | Left | | | Button +------------+ | | Right | | | Button | +--------------------+............| | Thumb/Button Area | 15% +---------------------------------+ Trackpad features Two finger scrolling Use two fingers for Z axis scrolling. Button down/second finger While one finger clicks and holds down the touchpad, the sec- ond finger can be used to move the mouse cursor. This can be useful for drawing or selecting text. Thumb/Button area The lower 15% of the trackpad will not affect the mouse cur- sor position. This allows for high precision clicking, by controlling the cursor with the index finger and push- ing/holding the pad down with the thumb. Trackpad button Push physical button. The left two thirds of the pad issues a LEFT button event. The upper right corner issues a MIDDLE button event. The lower right corner issues a RIGHT button. Optionally, tap to click can be enabled (see below). On a system using device.hints(5), these values are configurable for cyapa: hint.cyapa.%d.at target iicbus(4). hint.cyapa.%d.addr cyapa i2c address on the iicbus(4). SYSCTL VARIABLES These sysctl(8) variables are available: debug.cyapa_idle_freq Scan frequency in idle mode, the default is 1. debug.cyapa_slow_freq Scan frequency in slow mode, the default is 20. debug.cyapa_norm_freq Scan frequency in normal mode, the default is 100. debug.cyapa_minpressure Minimum pressure to detect a finger, the default is 12. debug.cyapa_enable_tapclick Controls tap to click. Possible values: 0 Tap to click is disabled. This is the default value. 1 Tap to click always generates a left mouse button event. 2 Tap to click generates left mouse button event if the left 2/3rds of the pad are tapped and a right mouse button event otherwise. 3 Tap to click generates mouse button events as if the physical button was pressed (see "DESCRIPTION" above). debug.cyapa_tapclick_min_ticks Minimum tap duration in ticks to create a click, the default is 1. debug.cyapa_tapclick_max_ticks Maximum tap duration in ticks to create a click, the default is 8. debug.cyapa_move_min_ticks Minimum ticks before cursor movement occurs, the default is 4. debug.cyapa_scroll_wait_ticks Ticks to wait before starting to scroll, the default is 0. debug.cyapa_scroll_stick_ticks Ticks while preventing cursor movement on single finger after scroll, the default is 15. debug.cyapa_thumbarea_percent Size of bottom thumb area in percent, the default is 15. debug.cyapa_debug Setting this to a non-zero value enables debug output to con- sole and syslog, the default is 0. debug.cyapa_reset Setting this to a non-zero value reinitializes the device. The sysctl resets to zero immediately. FILES cyapa creates /dev/cyapa0, which presents the mouse as an IntelliMouse PS/2 device. It supports moused(8) levels 0 through 2, level 1 is used by default. EXAMPLES To use cyapa with moused(8), add the following lines to the rc.conf(5) file: moused_enable="YES" moused_port="/dev/cyapa0" If vertical scrolling is not desired, add moused_flags="-l0" to rc.conf(5). Enable tap to click for the left and the right mouse button and disable the thumb area by adding these lines to the sysctl.conf(5) file: debug.cyapa_thumbarea_percent=0 debug.cyapa_enable_tapclick=2 SEE ALSO chromebook_platform(4), ig4(4), iicbus(4), sysmouse(4), moused(8) AUTHORS The original cyapa driver was written for DragonFly by Matthew Dillon. It has been ported, modified, and enhanced for FreeBSD by Michael Gmelin <freebsd@grem.de>. This manual page was written by Michael Gmelin <freebsd@grem.de>. BUGS The cyapa driver detects the device from the I2C address. This might have unforeseen consequences if the initialization sequence is sent to an unknown device at that address.
