• Dissable tty echoing while evtest is running.

• Allow evtest to listen to more than one devices.

• The setup.py script now allows the location of the input header files to be overwritten. For example:

  python setup.py build_ext \
  --evdev-headers path/input.h:path/input-event-codes.h \
  --include-dirs  path/ \
  install
  

• Asyncio and async/await support (many thanks to @paulo-raca).
• Add the ability to set the phys property of uinput devices (thanks @paulo-raca).
• Add a generic :func:`InputDevice.set` method (thanks @paulo-raca).
• Distribute the evtest script along with evdev.
• Fix issue with generating :mod:`ecodes.c` in recent kernels (>= 4.4.0).
• Fix absinfo item indexes in :func:`UInput.uinput_create()` (thanks @forsenonlhaimaisentito).
• More robust comparison of :class:`InputDevice` objects (thanks @isia).

• Write access to the input device is no longer mandatory. Evdev will first try to open the device for reading and writing and fallback to read-only. Methods that require write access (e.g. :func:`set_led()`) will raise :class:`EvdevError` if the device is open only for reading.

• Fallback to distutils if setuptools is not available.

• Rework documentation and docstrings once more.
• Fix install on Python 3.4 (works around issue21121).
• Fix :func:`ioctl()` requested buffer size (thanks Jakub Wojciech Klama).

• Add method for returning a list of the currently active keys - :func:`InputDevice.active_keys()` (thanks @spasche).
• Fix a potential buffer overflow in :func:`ioctl_capabilities()` (thanks @spasche).

• Calling :func:`InputDevice.read_one()` should always return None, when there is nothing to be read, even in case of a EAGAIN errno (thanks JPP).

• Silence :class:`OSError` in destructor (thanks @polyphemus).
• Make :func:`InputDevice.close()` work in cases in which stdin (fd 0) has been closed (thanks @polyphemus).

• Rework documentation and docstrings.
• Call :func:`InputDevice.close()` from :func:`InputDevice.__del__()`.

• Fix reference counting in :func:`InputDevice.device_read()`,

:func:`InputDevice.device_read_many()` and :func:`ioctl_capabilities`.

• Add FF_* and FF_STATUS codes to :func:`ecodes` (thanks @bgilbert).

• Reverse event code mappings (ecodes.{KEY,FF,REL,ABS} and etc.) will now map to a list of codes, whenever a value corresponds to multiple codes:

  >>> ecodes.KEY[152]
  ... ['KEY_COFFEE', 'KEY_SCREENLOCK']
  >>> ecodes.KEY[30]
  ... 'KEY_A'
  

• Set the state of a LED through :func:`InputDevice.set_led()` (thanks @accek).

• Open :attr:`InputDevice.fd` in O_RDWR mode from now on.

• Fix segfault in :func:`InputDevice.device_read_many()` (thanks @bgilbert).

• Raise :class:`IOError` from :func:`InputDevice.device_read()` and

:func:`InputDevice.device_read_many()` when :func:`InputDevice.read()` fails.

• Several stability and style changes (thank you debian code reviewers).

• Fix vendor id and product id order in :func:`DeviceInfo` (thanks @kived).

• :func:`InputDevice.read()` will return an empty tuple if the device has nothing to offer (instead of segfaulting).
• Exclude unnecessary package data in sdist and bdist.

• Add ability to set/get auto-repeat settings with EVIOC{SG}REP.
• Add :func:`InputDevice.version` - the value of EVIOCGVERSION.
• Add :func:`InputDevice.read_loop()`.
• Add :func:`InputDevice.grab()` and :func:`InputDevice.ungrab()` - exposes EVIOCGRAB.
• Add :func:`InputDevice.leds` - exposes EVIOCGLED.
• Replace :class:`DeviceInfo` class with a namedtuple.
• Prevent :func:`InputDevice.read_one()` from skipping events.
• Rename :class:`AbsData` to :class:`AbsInfo` (as in struct input_absinfo).

• Add the ability to set arbitrary device capabilities on uinput devices (defaults to all EV_KEY ecodes).
• Add :attr:`UInput.device` which is an open :class:`InputDevice` to the input device that uinput 'spawns'.
• Add :func:`UInput.capabilities()` which is just a shortcut to :func:`UInput.device.capabilities()`.
• Rename :func:`UInput.write()` to :func:`UInput.write_event()`.
• Add a simpler :func:`UInput.write(type, code, value)` method.
• Make all :func:`UInput` constructor arguments optional (default device name is now py-evdev-uinput).
• Add the ability to set absmin, absmax, absfuzz and absflat when specifying the uinput device's capabilities.
• Remove the nophys argument - if a device fails the EVIOCGPHYS ioctl, phys will equal the empty string.
• Make :func:`InputDevice.capabilities()` perform a EVIOCGABS ioctl for devices that support EV_ABS and return that info wrapped in an AbsData namedtuple.
• Split ioctl_devinfo into ioctl_devinfo and ioctl_capabilities.
• Split :func:`UInput.uinput_open()` to :func:`UInput.uinput_open()` and :func:`UInput.uinput_create()`
• Add more uinput usage examples and documentation.
• Rewrite uinput tests.
• Remove mouserel and mouseabs from :class:`UInput`.
• Tie the sphinx version and release to the distutils version.
• Set 'methods-before-attributes' sorting in the docs.
• Remove KEY_CNT and KEY_MAX from :func:`ecodes.keys`.

• Add events.keys, which is a combination of all BTN_ and KEY_ event codes.
• ecodes.c was not generated when installing through pip.
