nirenjan 92b0eb584f Allow overriding the vendor command functionality
This change allows for a test framework to override the functionality of
libx52_vendor_command. By doing so, it can build tests that change the
libx52_device structure, and therefore, not need to rely on libusbx52 to
get the commands written.

This allows for tests that can be built and run on other OSes as well,
since the libusbx52 based tests cannot run on OSX and have not been
tested on BSD systems.

Saitek X52Pro joystick driver for Linux

Build Status

This project adds a new driver for the Saitek/MadCatz X52 Pro flight control system. The X52 pro is a HOTAS (hand on throttle and stick) with 7 axes, 39 buttons, 1 hat and 1 thumbstick and a multi-function display which is programmable.

Currently, only Windows drivers are available from Saitek PLC, which led me to develop a new Linux driver which can program the MFD and the individual LEDs on the joystick. The standard usbhid driver is capable of reading the joystick, but it cannot control the MFD or LEDs.

Most of the extra functionality can be handled from userspace. See the individual folders for README information.
