[PATCH] Emulate dip switch language layout settings on SUN keyboard
Posted by Henrik Carlqvist 3 years, 9 months ago
SUN Type 4, 5 and 5c keyboards have dip switches to choose the language
layout of the keyboard. Solaris makes an ioctl to query the value of the
dipswitches and uses that value to select keyboard layout. Also the SUN
bios like the one in the file ss5.bin uses this value to support at least
some keyboard layouts. However, the OpenBIOS provided with qemu is
hardcoded to allways use an US keyboard layout.

Before this patch, qemu allways gave dip switch value 0x21 (US keyboard),
this patch uses the command line switch "-k" (keyboard layout) to select
dip switch value. A table is used to lookup values from arguments like:

-k fr
-k es

But the patch also accepts numeric dip switch values directly to the -k
switch:

-k 0x2b
-k 43

Both values above are the same and select swedish keyboard as explained in
table 3-15 at
https://docs.oracle.com/cd/E19683-01/806-6642/new-43/index.html

Unless you want to do a full Solaris installation but happen to have
access to a bios file, the easiest way to test that the patch works is to:

qemu-system-sparc -k sv -bios /path/to/ss5.bin

If you already happen to have a Solaris installation in a qemu disk image
file you can easily try different keyboard layouts after this patch is
applied.

Unfortunately my glib version is too old to compile later versions of qemu
so even though this patch is made from latest git I have only been able to
test it myself with qemu version 4.1.1. I think and hope that this patch will
compile and work also with the latest version of git as it only affects one
file and there hasn't been much changes to that file since tested version
4.1.1.

Best regards Henrik

Ping: [PATCH] Emulate dip switch language layout settings on SUN keyboard
Posted by Henrik Carlqvist 3 years, 8 months ago
Would you please consider my patch which implements the honor of the -k switch
for sparc as a sun keyboard language dip switch setting instead of a hard
coded en-us keyboard layout?

The initial patch mail was sent to the mailing list and the listed maintainers
of escc.c and is also available at
http://patchwork.ozlabs.org/project/qemu-devel/patch/20200710201911.3a3e336c.hc981@poolhem.se/

This ping email is also sent to Gerd Hoffmann who many years ago
(2014) selected the en-us keyboard layout as a hardcoded value in escc.c with
commit 59e7a130054b55fe15cdfdebf284332b04d990ef.

Best regards Henrik

I don't think I have access to push commits to the git repo, or did you mean
that Paolo should make the commit?
