This bug report is related to the virtual USB keyboard which is exposed by the iLO4 BMC on HP Proliant servers (system ROM J10, iLO4 version 2.10) when one use the "textcons" command in the IPMI shell. Under 12.1-STABLE (rev 359316) the Shift and Control modifier keys have no effect, they used to correctly operate under 11.3-STABLE (rev 353465). This bug prevents the completion of and upgrade to 12.1, I was forced to rollback to 11.3. The exposed device is described as follows: ugen3.2: <HP Virtual Keyboard> at usbus3, cfg=0 md=HOST spd=FULL (12Mbps) pwr=ON (0mA) bLength = 0x0012 bDescriptorType = 0x0001 bcdUSB = 0x0110 bDeviceClass = 0x0000 <Probed by interface class> bDeviceSubClass = 0x0000 bDeviceProtocol = 0x0000 bMaxPacketSize0 = 0x0040 idVendor = 0x03f0 idProduct = 0x7029 bcdDevice = 0x0002 iManufacturer = 0x0001 <HP > iProduct = 0x0002 <Virtual Keyboard > iSerialNumber = 0x0000 <no string> bNumConfigurations = 0x0001 Configuration index 0 bLength = 0x0009 bDescriptorType = 0x0002 wTotalLength = 0x003b bNumInterfaces = 0x0002 bConfigurationValue = 0x0001 iConfiguration = 0x0000 <no string> bmAttributes = 0x0040 bMaxPower = 0x0000 Interface 0 bLength = 0x0009 bDescriptorType = 0x0004 bInterfaceNumber = 0x0000 bAlternateSetting = 0x0000 bNumEndpoints = 0x0001 bInterfaceClass = 0x0003 <HID device> bInterfaceSubClass = 0x0001 bInterfaceProtocol = 0x0001 iInterface = 0x0010 <Virtual Keyboard > Additional Descriptor bLength = 0x09 bDescriptorType = 0x21 bDescriptorSubType = 0x01 RAW dump: 0x00 | 0x09, 0x21, 0x01, 0x01, 0x21, 0x01, 0x22, 0x41, 0x08 | 0x00 Endpoint 0 bLength = 0x0007 bDescriptorType = 0x0005 bEndpointAddress = 0x0081 <IN> bmAttributes = 0x0003 <INTERRUPT> wMaxPacketSize = 0x0008 bInterval = 0x000a bRefresh = 0x0000 bSynchAddress = 0x0000 Interface 1 bLength = 0x0009 bDescriptorType = 0x0004 bInterfaceNumber = 0x0001 bAlternateSetting = 0x0000 bNumEndpoints = 0x0001 bInterfaceClass = 0x0003 <HID device> bInterfaceSubClass = 0x0001 bInterfaceProtocol = 0x0002 iInterface = 0x0020 <Virtual Mouse> Additional Descriptor bLength = 0x09 bDescriptorType = 0x21 bDescriptorSubType = 0x01 RAW dump: 0x00 | 0x09, 0x21, 0x01, 0x01, 0x21, 0x01, 0x22, 0x3c, 0x08 | 0x00 Endpoint 0 bLength = 0x0007 bDescriptorType = 0x0005 bEndpointAddress = 0x0082 <IN> bmAttributes = 0x0003 <INTERRUPT> wMaxPacketSize = 0x0005 bInterval = 0x000a bRefresh = 0x0000 bSynchAddress = 0x0000
Can you check if this issue is solved by: https://svnweb.freebsd.org/changeset/base/359558 --HPS
I did compile a kernel using svn rev 359586, placed it on a memstick image to test it but I am now blocked but a loader bug. I'll keep you informed of the outcome.
Thank you, the proposed patch do indeed fix the reported bug.
