[Qemu-devel] [Bug 1004050] [NEW] qemu-system-ppc64 by default has non-working keyboard

[Richard W.M. Jones]

Public bug reported:

Compile qemu from git and do:

  ./ppc64-softmmu/qemu-system-ppc64

(ie. no parameters).  It boots to an OpenBIOS prompt.  However the
keyboard doesn't work.  After ~10 keypresses, qemu just says:

usb-kbd: warning: key event queue full
usb-kbd: warning: key event queue full
usb-kbd: warning: key event queue full
usb-kbd: warning: key event queue full

There is no indication inside the guest that OpenBIOS is seeing keyboard
events.

Also there's no indication of what type of keyboard devices are
available, nor what we should use.

OpenBIOS/ppc only supports ADB keyboards at this time. ppc64 kernels
don't support ADB though, so -M mac99 has a USB keyboard. -nographic
should work, and so does -M pseries (using SLOF).

I have also experienced the same issue with qemu-system-ppc64. It
appears that ppc64 is not able to communicate with the USB controller.
This issue is not seen with with qemu-system-ppc.

[Thomas Huth]

AFAIK an OHCI driver has been added to OpenBIOS in 2014, so marking this
bug as fixed now. If you still have issues with OpenBIOS, please report
them to the OpenBIOS project instead of the QEMU bug tracker, thanks!
