Binary package hint: qemu-kvm

I have set the keyboard layout to German NEO 2 [1] in the host and the client (both current karmic). The caps lock is used as modifier (similar to shift) in NEO. When I press "caps lock" + "t", then the client prints a "t" instead of a "-". It seems that the pressed caps lock is not passed to the client.

[Qemu-devel] [Bug 427612] Re: does not pass pressed caps lock to client

[Benjamin Drung]

I modified qemu-kvm to show what keys it receives (patch attached). I am
using the German NEO layout and I get one press and one release event.
Here's the output, if I first press 'caps lock' and then '#':

sdl_process_key({type=0x2,which=0x0,state=0x1,keysym={scancode=0x42,sym=0x139,mod=0x0,unicode=0x0}})
keycode = 0x3a
kbd_put_keycode(0x3a)
kbd_put_keycode(0xba)

sdl_process_key({type=0x3,which=0x0,state=0x0,keysym={scancode=0x42,sym=0x139,mod=0x0,unicode=0x0}})
keycode = 0x3a
kbd_put_keycode(0x3a)
kbd_put_keycode(0xba)

sdl_process_key({type=0x2,which=0x0,state=0x1,keysym={scancode=0x33,sym=0x139,mod=0x0,unicode=0x0}})
keycode = 0x2b
kbd_put_keycode(0x2b)

[Qemu-devel] [Bug 427612] Re: does not pass pressed caps lock to client

[Serge Hallyn]

Capslock turning on:

sdl_process_key({type=0x2,which=0x0,state=0x1,keysym={scancode=0x42,sym=0x12d,mod=0x2000,unicode=0x0}})
keycode = 0x3a
kbd_put_keycode(0x3a)
kbd_put_keycode(0xba)

capslock turning off:

sdl_process_key({type=0x3,which=0x0,state=0x0,keysym={scancode=0x42,sym=0x12d,mod=0x0,unicode=0x0}})
keycode = 0x3a
kbd_put_keycode(0x3a)
kbd_put_keycode(0xba)

Unlike other keys, everything gets dumped at once at keydown - nothing
new is generated at keyup.

[Qemu-devel] [Bug 427612] Re: does not pass pressed caps lock to client

[Serge Hallyn]

Uh, but capslock works for me!  In the stock 0.12.5 maverick qemu-kvm
package.

(I hadn't noticed before, because I generally keep capslock set as an
additional control).

So this bug is, in fact fix committed.  It sounds like you have a differnet bug relating
to your keyboard layout.  Please do open a new bug for it.

[Qemu-devel] [Bug 427612] Re: kvm sends caps lock key up event twice

[Benjamin Drung]

libsdl1.2 does not send an key up event for the host caps lock key, but
does send the key up event if the physical caps lock key is mapped to
another key (like NEO2 does). qemu-kvm works around this bug by sending
a key up event for every caps lock key event. The attached patch fixes
the bug for me. Can you test, if the caps lock behavior still works for
you?

Right, and when I have capslock mapped to control as I usually do, then
I do get a keyup event:

Capslock turning on:
sdl_process_key({type=0x2,which=0x0,state=0x1,keysym={scancode=0x42,sym=0x12d,mod=0x2000,unicode=0x0}})
keycode = 0x3a
kbd_put_keycode(0x3a)
kbd_put_keycode(0xba)

capslock turning off:

sdl_process_key({type=0x3,which=0x0,state=0x0,keysym={scancode=0x42,sym=0x12d,mod=0x0,unicode=0x0}})
keycode = 0x3a
kbd_put_keycode(0x3a)
kbd_put_keycode(0xba)

Actually, I may not get a chance for another two weeks.  Can we
get someone else to test?

Binary package hint: qemu-kvm

I have set the keyboard layout to German NEO 2 [1] in the host and the client (both current karmic). The caps lock is used as modifier (similar to shift) in NEO. When I press "caps lock" + "t", then the client prints a "t" instead of a "-". It seems that the pressed caps lock is not passed to the client.

You mean "press caps lock" with "capslock turning on" and "release caps
lock" with "capslock turning off"?

[Qemu-devel] [Bug 427612] Re: kvm sends caps lock key up event twice

[Serge Hallyn]

Sorry, Benjamin, I cut-pasted the wrong bit.  When capslock is mapped to control on the
host, then I get:

key press:

sdl_process_key({type=0x2,which=0x0,state=0x1,keysym={scancode=0x42,sym=0x132,mod=0x0,unicode=0x0}})
keycode = 0x3a
kbd_put_keycode(0x3a)
kbd_put_keycode(0xba)

key up:

sdl_process_key({type=0x3,which=0x0,state=0x0,keysym={scancode=0x42,sym=0x132,mod=0x0,unicode=0x0}})
keycode = 0x3a
kbd_put_keycode(0x3a)
kbd_put_keycode(0xba)

Thanks, Benjamin.  I will propose this patch for merge as soon as some
technical difficulties with the natty/qemu-kvm tree are straightened
out.  Hopefully tomorrow.

[Qemu-devel] [Bug 427612] Re: kvm sends caps lock key up event twice

[Serge Hallyn]

Thanks, Benjamin.  I've pushed your fix to a ppa in
https://launchpad.net/~serge-hallyn/+archive/qemu-capslock
for testing.  I'd like someone with a standard keyboard with
capslock not remapped to give this a spin, then I'll propose the
fix for merge into the natty tree (after which it can be SRU'd into
maverick).

If noone gets to it before then, I can test it next week.  This week,
unfortunately, I can't do it myself.

The patch might fix part of the problem, but there remain more issues:

* SDL also sends an SDL_KEYUP event for caps lock when the
   environment variable SDL_DISABLE_LOCK_KEYS is set.
   This mode is very useful but currently unsupported by qemu/kvm.

* Num lock and caps lock are handled in a similar way by SDL.
   The patch only handles caps lock. Maybe this is less important
   because keyboard layouts which remap num lock are rare
   (I don't know any).

* The keyboard status LEDs and the qemu client's keyboard status
   can become unsynchronized if the input focus changes from qemu
   to other applications.

Regards,

Stefan Weil

I have set the keyboard layout to German NEO 2 [1] in the host and the client (both current karmic). The caps lock is used as modifier (similar to shift) in NEO. When I press "caps lock" + "t", then the client prints a "t" instead of a "-". A caps lock key up event is sent to the client before I release the caps lock key.

[Qemu-devel] [Bug 427612] Re: kvm sends caps lock key up event twice

[Benjamin Drung]

Attached a new version of my patch. You find two branches linked to this
bug for maverick and natty. The patch sets SDL_DISABLE_LOCK_KEYS and get
rid of the complete workaround in qemu-kvm. This requires SDL >= 1.2.14.

Is this a regression of my patch or is it the case for the unpatched
qemu too?

For newer versions of SDL (those which use SDL_DISABLE_LOCK_KEYS
to disable special handling of the lock keys), your patch looks ok.
It is a working solution for maintainers of the latest Ubuntu releases.

But what about older versions? For those, your patch will make QEMU's
keyboard emulation unusable. Most older versions don't know
SDL_DISABLE_LOCK_KEYS. As far as I know, some SDL versions (from Debian
and Ubuntu) even used SDL_DISABLE_LOCK_KEYS with an inverted meaning.

I don't think we can simply ignore old or incompatible versions of SDL.
Therefore I suggest adding a runtime version check, so the emulation
can either use the old code (SDL < 1.2.14) or your new code (SDL >= 1.2.14).

The crucial point is whether "old" versions must be supported or not.
This is something which the QEMU community should decide.

That is no regression, but a weakness which existed from the
beginning. Your patch neither makes it better nor makes it worse.

Just a small remark:
Inline patches (instead of links) are preferred on qemu-devel
because they make reading easier, and it's also easier for reviewers
to add comments.

This bug was fixed in the package qemu-kvm - 0.13.0+noroms-0ubuntu8

---------------
qemu-kvm (0.13.0+noroms-0ubuntu8) natty; urgency=low

  * Add caps-lock-key-up-event.patch to enable normal up/down events for
    Caps-Lock and Num-Lock keys by setting SDL_DISABLE_LOCK_KEYS (which
    requires SDL > 1.2.14). This fixes handling of capslock when capslock is
    mapped to something else in host system. (LP: #427612)

Yes, that's better than not supporting older SDL versions.

I don't know if it can really fixed for all keyboard layout
combinations. Imagine using two keyboard layouts that have the caps lock
key mapped on different keys. How do you want to keep the caps lock
synchronized?

You request a new feature for Launchpad, because I used Launchpad to
attach my patch. Look at https://launchpad.net/bugs/427612 . All
comments for bugs in the qemu-kvm Ubuntu package are forwarded to the

I have set the keyboard layout to German NEO 2 [1] in the host and the client (both current karmic). The caps lock is used as modifier (similar to shift) in NEO. When I press "caps lock" + "t", then the client prints a "t" instead of a "-". A caps lock key up event is sent to the client before I release the caps lock key.

[Qemu-devel] [Bug 427612] Re: kvm sends caps lock key up event twice

[Launchpad Bug Tracker]

This bug was fixed in the package qemu-kvm - 0.12.5+noroms-0ubuntu7.1

---------------
qemu-kvm (0.12.5+noroms-0ubuntu7.1) maverick-proposed; urgency=low

  * Add caps-lock-key-up-event.patch to enable normal up/down events for
    Caps-Lock and Num-Lock keys by setting SDL_DISABLE_LOCK_KEYS (which
    requires SDL > 1.2.14). This fixes handling of capslock when capslock is
    mapped to something else in host system. (LP: #427612)

[Qemu-devel] [PATCH 0.14] ui/sdl: Fix handling of caps lock and num lock keys

[Stefan Weil]

Starting with SDL version 1.2.14, caps lock and num lock keys
will send a SDL_KEYUP when SDL_DISABLE_LOCK_KEYS=1 is set in
the environment.

The new code sets the environment unconditionally
(it won't harm old versions which do not know it).

The workaround for SDL_KEYUP is only compiled with old SDL versions.

A similar patch without handling of old SDL versions was already
published by Benjamin Drung for Ubuntu.

  I have set the keyboard layout to German NEO 2 [1] in the host and the
  client (both current karmic). The caps lock is used as modifier
  (similar to shift) in NEO. When I press "caps lock" + "t", then the
  client prints a "t" instead of a "-". A caps lock key up event is sent
  to the client before I release the caps lock key.
