Description Olivier Crete (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2008-04-06 20:22:26 UTC 
I need that file to build userspace apps using hidraw.
Comment 1 SpanKY gentoo-dev 2008-04-06 22:58:30 UTC 
linux/hidraw.h has never been installed

please e-mail linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org and linux-input@vger.kernel.org to see if that's what they want to do
Comment 2 Olivier Crete (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2008-04-06 23:11:20 UTC 
It is a new API just merged into kernel 2.6.24 (it will replace hiddev). There are clear indications in it that it should be included in userspace headers and other distributions (Fedora rawhide and debian experimental at least) include it in their header package.
Comment 3 SpanKY gentoo-dev 2008-04-08 03:16:39 UTC 
that doesnt preclude checking with upstream and/or sending them a patch ... hidraw.h also needs hid.h
Comment 4 SpanKY gentoo-dev 2008-04-12 23:06:52 UTC 
2.6.25 will be released shortly and my patch should be part of that
