+ * EVIOCGMASK - Retrieve current event mask
+ *
+ * This ioctl allows user to retrieve the current event mask for specific
+ * event type. The argument must be of type "struct input_mask" and
+ * specifies the event type to query, the address of the receive buffer and
+ * the size of the receive buffer.
+ *
+ * The event mask is a per-client mask that specifies which events are
+ * forwarded to the client. Each event code is represented by a single bit
+ * in the event mask. If the bit is set, the event is passed to the client
+ * normally. Otherwise, the event is filtered and will never be queued on
+ * the client's receive buffer.
+ *
+ * Event masks do not affect global state of the input device. They only
+ * affect the file descriptor they are applied to.
+ *
+ * The default event mask for a client has all bits set, i.e. all events
+ * are forwarded to the client. If the kernel is queried for an unknown
+ * event type or if the receive buffer is larger than the number of
+ * event codes known to the kernel, the kernel returns all zeroes for those
+ * codes.
+ *
+ * At maximum, codes_size bytes are copied.
+ *
+ * This ioctl may fail with ENODEV in case the file is revoked, EFAULT
+ * if the receive-buffer points to invalid memory, or EINVAL if the kernel
+ * does not implement the ioctl.

+ * EVIOCSMASK - Set event mask
+ *
+ * This ioctl is the counterpart to EVIOCGMASK. Instead of receiving the
+ * current event mask, this changes the client's event mask for a specific
+ * type.  See EVIOCGMASK for a description of event-masks and the
+ * argument-type.
+ *
+ * This ioctl provides full forward compatibility. If the passed event type
+ * is unknown to the kernel, or if the number of event codes specified in
+ * the mask is bigger than what is known to the kernel, the ioctl is still
+ * accepted and applied. However, any unknown codes are left untouched and
+ * stay cleared. That means, the kernel always filters unknown codes
+ * regardless of what the client requests.  If the new mask doesn't cover
+ * all known event-codes, all remaining codes are automatically cleared and
+ * thus filtered.
+ *
+ * This ioctl may fail with ENODEV in case the file is revoked. EFAULT is
+ * returned if the receive-buffer points to invalid memory. EINVAL is returned
+ * if the kernel does not implement the ioctl.
