The man:usbhid[4] driver is now enabled by default, and is used in preference to other USB HID drivers like man:ukbd[4], man:ums[4], and man:uhid[4].
Supported device classes now include:
- Absolute‐positioning mice in virtualized environments via man:hms[4]
- Digitizers and stylus devices via man:hpen[4]
- Compound HID devices, such as keyboards and mice that share
a single USB interface
- Special keyboard function keys (volume, brightness, etc.) via man:hcons[4]
and man:hsctrl[4]
- Game controllers, including Xbox 360 and PS4 gamepads via man:xb360gp[4] and
man:ps4dshock[4], and generic controllers via man:hgame[4]
- Raw HID devices via man:hidraw[4]
FIDO/U2F security tokens continue to be supported through the autoloaded
man:u2f[4] driver. Device names and protocol handling for these devices are
unchanged.
