Bug 104041

evemu-record /dev/input/event3

I'm on Arch Linux and ASUS E202SA laptop. This laptop (like many ASUSes) has a dedicated button to turn the wireless devices on and off. This button is Fn+F2, but it's actually a separate input device provided by asus_wireless kernel module.

This button works fine in X11 with libinput 1.9.2 although some patching of xkeyboard-config is required: https://patchwork.freedesktop.org/patch/155965/ (I have no clue why this change is still not upstreamed, but I have patched it locally). This xkeyboard-config patch is required for X11 to recognize KEY_RFKILL that is sent by asus_wireless driver.

However, libinput 1.9.3 introduced a regression: this button no longer works in X11. Faulty is the combination of libinput 1.9.3 and asus_wireless's input device. If I either use libinput 1.9.2 or press KEY_RFKILL on the atkbd (I remapped a key with udev to test that), it gets delivered to X11 and shows up as XF86WLAN. But for some reason, libinput 1.9.3 ignores asus_wireless's "keyboard".
