[OSX] Input.GetAxis(Mouse) first given value is wrong after Cursor.lockState is set to CursorLockMode.Locked

Input

-

How to reproduce:
1. Open the attached "New Unity Project 4" project and open "Main" scene
2. Enter playmode
3. Move the mouse to the corner of your screen, the movement in X will be output to the console
4. Press Space button to lock the mouse at the center of the game window
5. Move the mouse slightly

Expected result: Input.GetAxis("Mouse X) returned value is small, since mouse is moved only slightly from center
Actual result: Input.GetAxis("Mouse X") returns a big value, as if movement value would be returned from wherever the mouse cursor were, before it was locked to the center of the game window

Reproduced on 5.4.5f1, 5.5.2p2, 5.6.0f1, 2017.1.0a3

Notes:
1. Issue only happens with first returned value, after setting Cursor.lockState to Locked, the rest of the values seem correct
2. Couldn't reproduce this on Windows 10

  1. Resolution Note:

    We are deprecating old input system bugs as we have moved all resources to the new input system.

    Where is this bug now? I just came across the problem in 2021.1.17f on OSX, no issue on Windows 10.

    Two and half years later the bug is still here.

    Based on testing on OSX:
    - When the mouse is locked (by setting `Cursor.lockState = CursorLockMode.Locked`), the mouse position is immediately updated so that the mouse cursor is now in the center of the game view, although it likely won't see this until the cursor is subsequently unlocked (by setting`Cursor.lockState = CursorLockMode.None`), at which point you'll notice that your mouse position has jumped.
    - It seems that `Input.GetAxis("Mouse X")` and `Input.GetAxis("Mouse Y")` fail to take this jump into account, so that the first one or two result values of `Input.GetAxis()` are off, based on how far of a virtual jump the mouse made
