 xpad - Linux USB driver for Xbox compatible controllers
 =======================================================

 This driver exposes all first-party and third-party Xbox compatible
 controllers. It has a long history and has enjoyed considerable usage
 as Window's xinput library caused most PC games to focus on Xbox
 controller compatibility.

 Due to backwards compatibility all buttons are reported as digital.
 This only effects Original Xbox controllers. All later controller models
 have only digital face buttons.

 Rumble is supported on some models of Xbox 360 controllers but not of
 Original Xbox controllers nor on Xbox One controllers. As of writing
 the Xbox One's rumble protocol has not been reverse engineered but in
 the future could be supported.


 Notes
 =====

 The number of buttons/axes reported varies based on 3 things:

 - if you are using a known controller
 - if you are using a known dance pad
 - if using an unknown device (one not listed below), what you set in the
   module configuration for "Map D-PAD to buttons rather than axes for unknown
   pads" (module option dpad_to_buttons)

 If you set dpad_to_buttons to N and you are using an unknown device
 the driver will map the directional pad to axes (X/Y).
 If you said Y it will map the d-pad to buttons, which is needed for dance
 style games to function correctly. The default is Y.

 dpad_to_buttons has no effect for known pads. A erroneous commit message
 claimed dpad_to_buttons could be used to force behavior on known devices.
 This is not true. Both dpad_to_buttons and triggers_to_buttons only affect
 unknown controllers.


 Normal Controllers
 ------------------

 With a normal controller, the directional pad is mapped to its own X/Y axes.
 The jstest-program from joystick-1.2.15 (jstest-version 2.1.0) will report 8
 axes and 10 buttons.

 All 8 axes work, though they all have the same range (-32768..32767)
 and the zero-setting is not correct for the triggers (I don't know if that
 is some limitation of jstest, since the input device setup should be fine. I
 didn't have a look at jstest itself yet).

 All of the 10 buttons work (in digital mode). The six buttons on the
 right side (A, B, X, Y, black, white) are said to be "analog" and
 report their values as 8 bit unsigned, not sure what this is good for.

 I tested the controller with quake3, and configuration and
 in game functionality were OK. However, I find it rather difficult to
 play first person shooters with a pad. Your mileage may vary.


 Xbox Dance Pads
 ---------------

 When using a known dance pad, jstest will report 6 axes and 14 buttons.

 For dance style pads (like the redoctane pad) several changes
 have been made.  The old driver would map the d-pad to axes, resulting
 in the driver being unable to report when the user was pressing both
 left+right or up+down, making DDR style games unplayable.

 Known dance pads automatically map the d-pad to buttons and will work
 correctly out of the box.

 If your dance pad is recognized by the driver but is using axes instead
 of buttons, see section 0.3 - Unknown Controllers

 I've tested this with Stepmania, and it works quite well.


 Unknown Controllers
 -------------------

 If you have an unknown xbox controller, it should work just fine with
 the default settings.

 HOWEVER if you have an unknown dance pad not listed below, it will not
 work UNLESS you set "dpad_to_buttons" to 1 in the module configuration.


 USB adapters
 ============

 All generations of Xbox controllers speak USB over the wire.

 - Original Xbox controllers use a proprietary connector and require adapters.
 - Wireless Xbox 360 controllers require a 'Xbox 360 Wireless Gaming Receiver
   for Windows'
 - Wired Xbox 360 controllers use standard USB connectors.
 - Xbox One controllers can be wireless but speak Wi-Fi Direct and are not
   yet supported.
 - Xbox One controllers can be wired and use standard Micro-USB connectors.


 Original Xbox USB adapters
 --------------------------

 Using this driver with an Original Xbox controller requires an
 adapter cable to break out the proprietary connector's pins to USB.
 You can buy these online fairly cheap, or build your own.

 Such a cable is pretty easy to build. The Controller itself is a USB
 compound device (a hub with three ports for two expansion slots and
 the controller device) with the only difference in a nonstandard connector
 (5 pins vs. 4 on standard USB 1.0 connectors).

 You just need to solder a USB connector onto the cable and keep the
 yellow wire unconnected. The other pins have the same order on both
 connectors so there is no magic to it. Detailed info on these matters
 can be found on the net ([1]_, [2]_, [3]_).

 Thanks to the trip splitter found on the cable you don't even need to cut the
 original one. You can buy an extension cable and cut that instead. That way,
 you can still use the controller with your X-Box, if you have one ;)


 Driver Installation
 ===================

 Once you have the adapter cable, if needed, and the controller connected
 the xpad module should be auto loaded. To confirm you can cat
 /sys/kernel/debug/usb/devices. There should be an entry like those:

 .. code-block:: none
    :caption: dump from InterAct PowerPad Pro (Germany)

     E:  Ad=02(O) Atr=03(Int.) MxPS=  32 Ivl=4ms


 Supported Controllers
 =====================

 For a full list of supported controllers and associated vendor and product
 IDs see the xpad_device[] array\ [4]_.

 As of the historic version 0.0.6 (2006-10-10) the following devices
 were supported::

  original Microsoft XBOX controller (US),    vendor=0x045e, product=0x0202
  smaller  Microsoft XBOX controller (US),    vendor=0x045e, product=0x0289
  original Microsoft XBOX controller (Japan), vendor=0x045e, product=0x0285
  InterAct PowerPad Pro (Germany),            vendor=0x05fd, product=0x107a
  RedOctane Xbox Dance Pad (US),              vendor=0x0c12, product=0x8809

 Unrecognized models of Xbox controllers should function as Generic
 Xbox controllers. Unrecognized Dance Pad controllers require setting
 the module option 'dpad_to_buttons'.

 If you have an unrecognized controller please see 0.3 - Unknown Controllers


 Manual Testing
 ==============

 To test this driver's functionality you may use 'jstest'.

 For example::

     > modprobe xpad
     > modprobe joydev
     > jstest /dev/js0

 If you're using a normal controller, there should be a single line showing
 18 inputs (8 axes, 10 buttons), and its values should change if you move
 the sticks and push the buttons.  If you're using a dance pad, it should
 show 20 inputs (6 axes, 14 buttons).

 It works? Voila, you're done ;)


 Thanks
 ======

 I have to thank ITO Takayuki for the detailed info on his site
     http://euc.jp/periphs/xbox-controller.ja.html.

 His useful info and both the usb-skeleton as well as the iforce input driver
 (Greg Kroah-Hartmann; Vojtech Pavlik) helped a lot in rapid prototyping
 the basic functionality.
