Why This File Exists
Repeatable hardware-adapter layer. Deep compatibility for every driver is out of scope; this atlas records patterns, probe lifecycles, bus glue, IRQ/DMA usage, and links back to core abstractions.

config INPUT
tristate "Generic input layer (needed for keyboard, mouse, ...)" if EXPERT
default y
help
Say Y here if you have any input device (mouse, keyboard, tablet,
joystick, steering wheel ...) connected to your system and want
it to be available to applications. This includes standard PS/2
keyboard and mouse.
Say N here if you have a headless (no monitor, no keyboard) system.
More information is available: <file:Documentation/input/input.rst>
If unsure, say Y.
To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the
module will be called input.
if INPUT
config INPUT_LEDS
tristate "Export input device LEDs in sysfs"
depends on LEDS_CLASS
default INPUT
help
Say Y here if you would like to export LEDs on input devices
as standard LED class devices in sysfs.
If unsure, say Y.
To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the
module will be called input-leds.
config INPUT_FF_MEMLESS
tristate "Support for memoryless force-feedback devices"
help
Say Y here if you have memoryless force-feedback input device
such as Logitech WingMan Force 3D, ThrustMaster FireStorm Dual
Power 2, or similar. You will also need to enable hardware-specific
driver.
If unsure, say N.
To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the
module will be called ff-memless.
config INPUT_SPARSEKMAP
tristate "Sparse keymap support library"
help
Say Y here if you are using a driver for an input
device that uses sparse keymap. This option is only
useful for out-of-tree drivers since in-tree drivers
select it automatically.
If unsure, say N.
To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the
module will be called sparse-keymap.
config INPUT_MATRIXKMAP
tristate "Matrix keymap support library"
help
Say Y here if you are using a driver for an input

- Atlas domain: Driver Families / drivers/input.
- Implementation status: atlas-only.
Implementation Notes
- This generated page is the file-by-file coverage layer; curated subsystem chapters should link here when they synthesize a multi-file control flow.
- Core OS pages should be promoted from atlas-only to deep-reviewed when they explain data structures, invariants, locking, lifecycle, and C implementation snippets.
- Driver-family pages are intentionally pattern-oriented unless they are part of the selected PCIe/NVMe representative device path.
