-ioctl wrappers
---------------
-libevdev provides interfaces to query a device's capabilities, providing
-type-safe interfaces to query and set a device's capabilities and state.
-
-SYN_DROPPED handling
---------------------
-SYN_DROPPED is sent by the kernel if userspace cannot keep up with the
-reporting rate of the device. Once the kernel's buffer is full, it will
-issue a SYN_DROPPED event signalling dropped event. The userspace process
-must re-sync the device.
-
-libevdev semi-transparently handles SYN_DROPPED events, providing an
-interface to the caller to sync up device state without having to manually
-compare bitfields. Instead, libevdev sends the 'missing' events to the
-caller, allowing it to use the same event processing paths as it would
-otherwise.
