HID_GD_Z is mapped to ABS_Z for stylus and pen in hid-input.c. But HID_GD_Z should be used to report ABS_DISTANCE for stylus and pen as described at: Documentation/input/event-codes.rst#n226 * ABS_DISTANCE: - Used to describe the distance of a tool from an interaction surface. This event should only be emitted while the tool is hovering, meaning in close proximity of the device and while the value of the BTN_TOUCH code is 0. If the input device may be used freely in three dimensions, consider ABS_Z instead. - BTN_TOOL_ should be set to 1 when the tool comes into detectable proximity and set to 0 when the tool leaves detectable proximity. BTN_TOOL_ signals the type of tool that is currently detected by the hardware and is otherwise independent of ABS_DISTANCE and/or BTN_TOUCH. This patch makes the correct mapping. The ABS_DISTANCE is currently not mapped by any HID usage in hid-generic driver.
