.Nd workstation keyboard
|
|
.Sh SYNOPSIS
|
|
.Cd "pseudo-device kbd"
|
|
.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
|
The
|
|
.Nm
|
|
driver provides an interface to the workstation console keyboard.
|
|
.Dq type 2 ,
|
|
.Dq type 3 ,
|
|
and
|
|
.Dq type 4
|
|
keyboards are supported. All types generate keycodes encoding the
|
|
key identity and motion (up or down) as the keys are pressed and released.
|
|
The
|
|
.Nm
|
|
driver either passes the keycodes to an application as they come in, or
|
|
translates them into ASCII characters first according to a set of built-in
|
|
tables.
|
|
If the keyboard is configured as the device
|
|
to be used for system console input
|
|
.Pq see Xr openprom 4 ,
|
|
it will be internally connected to the
|
|
.Pa /dev/console
|
|
device special file, which can be used as a
|
|
.Xr tty 4
|
|
device.
|
|
The device special file
|
|
.Pa /dev/kbd
|
|
is used to get direct access to the keyboard input stream. The following
|
|
ioctl's are supported (mostly just enough to keep the X11 server going):
|
|
.Bl -tag -width KIOCSDIRECT
|
|
.It KIOCTRANS
|
|
Set translation mode. The argument is of type
|
|
.Fa "int *" ,
|
|
the only value supported is
|
|
.Dv TR_UNTRANS_EVENT .
|
|
.It KIOCGTRANS
|
|
Get translation mode. The argument is of type
|
|
.Fa "int *" .
|
|
.Dv TR_UNTRANS_EVENT
|
|
is always returned.
|
|
.It KIOCGETKEY
|
|
Fill in old-style key station translation. The argument is of type
|
|
.Fa "struct okiockey *" .
|
|
.It KIOCCMD
|
|
Send a command to the keyboard. The argument is of type
|
|
.Fa "int *" ,

|
|

|
will be returned.
|
|
.It KIOCSDIRECT
|
|
Route the keyboard input stream through the (SunOS) compatible event module.
|
|
The argument is of type
|
|
.Fa "int *" ,
|
|
a non-zero value will put the driver into

|
.Dq event

.Dq ASCII translation
|
|
mode.
|
|
