The dropped-packet calculation derives the sequence range in signed
int arithmetic. A sequence field whose logical range spans all signed
32-bit values makes the range calculation wrap to zero, so the following
modulo triggers a divide exception.
Do the range and delta calculations in s64, and normalize the delta after
the modulo. Also avoid overflowing value + 1 when the received value is at
the logical maximum.

The dropped-packet calculation derives the sequence range in signed int
arithmetic. A sequence field whose logical range spans all 32-bit values
makes the range calculation wrap to zero, so the following modulo triggers
a divide exception.
Normalize the maximum and current value according to the HID parser's
signedness rule, and keep the sequence state and arithmetic in s64. This
also avoids overflowing value + 1 at the logical maximum.

Changes in v3:
- Replace raw s64 modulo with div64_s64()-based remainder to avoid
__moddi3 link failure on 32-bit architectures (i386, arm32).
Reported by Sashiko AI review.
Changes in v2:
- Normalize logical_maximum/value as unsigned when logical_minimum >= 0,
matching HID parser signedness. Store sequence state as s64.
Fixes unsigned 0..UINT32_MAX range that broke v1.

Generally speaking, I feel like NAK-ing this patch as it currently is.
I'm happy to take a patch that specifically addresses the divide
exception, without expanding the size of sequence_number (mostly
because that particular part is a bit unnecessary with our hardware
unlikely to ever spend more than 32 bits on a sequence number). It
should be possible to introduce a helper function that calculates the
value with a branch rather than explicit division, e.g. something
like:
int wrapped_dist(int after, int before, int min, int max) {
if (after >= before) {
return after - before;
}
else {
return (max - before) + (after - min) + 1;
}
}

The dropped-packet calculation uses a modulo against sequence_size
(logical_maximum - logical_minimum + 1). When a HID descriptor
declares a sequence field whose logical range spans all 32-bit
values, sequence_size wraps to zero and the modulo triggers a
divide exception.
Replace the division-based calculation with a branch that computes
the forward distance through the sequence range directly, as
suggested by Jason Gerecke. This keeps the existing int types and
avoids the divide-by-zero without any 64-bit arithmetic.

Changes in v4:
- Replace s64 arithmetic with a branch-based helper that computes
the forward wrapped distance directly, as suggested by Jason Gerecke.
Keeps sequence_number as int; no type changes needed.
Changes in v3:
- Replace raw s64 modulo with div64_s64()-based remainder to avoid
__moddi3 link failure on 32-bit architectures (i386, arm32).
Changes in v2:
- Normalize logical_maximum/value as unsigned when logical_minimum >= 0,
matching HID parser signedness. Store sequence state as s64.

Now instead of four in the eights place /
you’ve got three, ‘Cause you added one /
(That is to say, eight) to the two, /
But you can’t take seven from three, /
So you look at the sixty-fours....
