 A set of ABS_MT events with the desired properties is defined. The events
 are divided into categories, to allow for partial implementation.  The
 minimum set consists of ABS_MT_TOUCH_MAJOR, ABS_MT_POSITION_X and
 ABS_MT_POSITION_Y, which allows for multiple fingers to be tracked.  If the
 device supports it, the ABS_MT_WIDTH_MAJOR may be used to provide the size
 of the approaching finger. Anisotropy and direction may be specified with

+Event Computation
+-----------------
+
+The flora of different hardware unavoidably leads to some devices fitting
+better to the MT protocol than others. To simplify and unify the mapping,
+this section gives recipes for how to compute certain events.
+
+For devices reporting contacts as rectangular shapes, signed orientation
+cannot be obtained. Assuming X and Y are the lengths of the sides of the
+touching rectangle, here is a simple formula that retains the most
+information possible:
+
+   ABS_MT_TOUCH_MAJOR := max(X, Y)
+   ABS_MT_TOUCH_MINOR := min(X, Y)
+   ABS_MT_ORIENTATION := bool(X > Y)
+
+The range of ABS_MT_ORIENTATION should be set to [0, 1], to indicate that
+the device can distinguish between a finger along the Y axis (0) and a
+finger along the X axis (1).
