Problem:
lockedPtrButtons keeps the state of the buttons locked by a PointerKeys button
press. Unconditionally clearing the bits may cause stuck buttons in this
sequence of events:
1. type Shift + NumLock to enable PointerKeys
2. type 0/Ins on keypad to emulate Button 1 press
→ button1 press event to client
3. press and release button 1 on physical mouse
→ button1 release event to client
Button 1 on the MD is now stuck and cannot be released.
Cause:
XKB PointerKeys button events are posted through the XTEST pointer device.
Once a press is generated, the XTEST device's button is down. The DIX merges
the button state of all attached SDs, hence the MD will have a button down
while the XTEST device has a button down.
PointerKey button events are only generated on the master device to avoid
duplicate events (see XkbFakeDeviceButton()). If the MD has the
lockedPtrButtons bit cleared by a release event on a physical device, no
such event is generated when a keyboard device triggers the PointerKey
ButtonRelease trigger. Since the event - if generated - is posted through
the XTEST pointer device, lack of a generated ButtonRelease event on the
XTEST pointer device means the button is never released, resulting in the
stuck button observed above.
Solution:
This patch merges the MD's lockedPtrButtons with the one of all attached
slave devices on release events. Thus, as long as one attached keyboard has
a lockedPtrButtons bit set, this bit is kept in the MD. Once a PointerKey
button is released on all keyboards, the matching release event is emulated
from the MD through the XTEST pointer device, thus also releasing the button
in the DIX.

X Server
The X server accepts requests from client applications to create windows,
which are (normally rectangular) "virtual screens" that the client program
can draw into.
Windows are then composed on the actual screen by the X server
(or by a separate composite manager) as directed by the window manager,
which usually communicates with the user via graphical controls such as buttons
and draggable titlebars and borders.
