Re: [PATCH] kbdmux(4) update

Markus,

[...]

Great work! With this patch I'm currently working since half an hour with
a PS/2 mouse, a Bluetooth mouse, a PS/2 keyboard and a Bluetooth mouse in
parallel without any ill effects. Without it, the machine froze within
seconds.

cool, thanks for the report. btw, did you mean "ps/2 keyboard and a
bluetooth keyboard" (not mouse) above? or you really have 2 bluetooth
mice going at the same time?

Actually I meant "ps/2 keyboard and a bluetooth keyboard", but I did a little bit of further testing and now have:

- one Logitech ps/2 mouse
- one Logitech MX1000 bluetooth mouse
- two Logitech MX900 bluetooth mice
- one Cherry ps/2 keyboard
- one Logitech MX5000 bluetooth keyboard

working in parallel flawlessly :) I would say: Awesome work Maksim!

did you have all these things connected at once? :) if so, then this is quite an impressive collections :)

please give yourself a credit too. you picked up where i left with bthidd(8), found and fixed silly typos etc. thank you for doing this.

Btw: I'm getting LORs from vkbd(4) when working with the bluetooth
keyboard (6-STABLE from about an hour ago with the kndmux patch):

thanks for reporting this. it has nothing to do with the kdbmux(4)
patch. it has been there for quite a long time. i will fix it.

Thanks!

could you please give a try to the following vkbd(4) patch?

http://people.freebsd.org/~emax/vkbd.c.diff.txt

this patch essentially removes custom locking from the vkbd(4) and makes it rely on Giant mutex (just like the rest of keyboard drivers and syscons(4) do).

thanks,
max
