I do not like ifdefs here, do you think we could write:
client->buffer[client->tail] = (struct input_event) {
.input_event_sec = event->input_event_sec,
.input_event_usec = event->input_event_usec,
.type = EV_SYN,
.code = SYN_DROPPED,
};
to ensure all padded fields are initialized? This is not hot path as we
do not expect queue to overfill too often.
Thanks.
