+# Changes since v0.9.1 up to v0.9.2
+
+This is a maintenance release of xpadneo v0.9 to fix several issues found in
+the current v0.10 development branch.
+
+Thanks to contributors Emil Velikov, @PetitMote, @Mikaka27 and @rdrms, we now
+have better compatibility with kernels 5.12 or later, latest DKMS versions, and
+improved documentation.
+
+We also fixed an issue conforming to the Linux input spec better which improves
+compatibility with jinput and probably also the Chrome browser by not exposing
+keyboard mapping bits on a joystick device. Thanks to @markpaters for pointing
+that out.
+
+Also, the current firmware generation seems to be unstable with our previous
+rumble throttling interval and we had to increase this to 50ms. This actually
+matches what the kernel is supposed to use for ff-memless emulation (but
+apparently it may still send rumble commands faster). Thus, it's recommended
+that anybody updates to this driver version.
+
+Current kernels seem to cache devices when rebinding drivers. This affects our
+udev rules, and needed fixups won't be properly applied because the original
+VID/PID is no longer visible to us. We fixed this by reverting to the original
+VID/PID on device unbinding.
+
+Due to the various compatibility fixes, this is a highly recommended update.
+
+
+## Compatibility issues
+
+We found an issue with the OpenRGB and QMK Firmware projects which enabled
+world read/write permissions on rawhid devices unconditionally. While this may
+be a security issue on its own, it also enabled SDL to access our hidraw device
+in an incompatible way, leading to mapping problems for both axes and buttons,
+and also rumble instabilities. Both projects seem to have fixed this issue
+meanwhile but you may want to double-check you're updated to the latest
+versions, especially if you're experiencing issues with Steam Proton games.
+
+
+## Heads-up for package maintainers
+
+Distributions shipping kernels 5.12 or later should no longer disable Bluetooth
+ERTM unconditionally. In fact, it may even harm connection stability when
+rumble is in use. For better stability, it's generally recommended to upgrade
+controllers to the new BLE firmware variant (version 5.x and above) for
+improved connection stability. To ease support, the firmware version will now
+be logged to dmesg with a warning if an old unstable firmware is found.
+
+You should also inform users who experience input or rumble latency issues to
+adjust the Bluetooth latency parameters but this may be fixed in later bluez
+versions.
