This allows to assign host input devices to the guest:
qemu -device virtio-input-host-pci,evdev=/dev/input/event<nr>
The guest gets exclusive access to the input device, so be careful
with assigning the keyboard if you have only one connected to your
machine.

This patch adds the virtio-input-hid base class and
virtio-{keyboard,mouse,tablet} subclasses building on the base class.
They are hooked up to the qemu input core and deliver input events
to the guest like all other hid devices (ps/2 kbd, usb tablet, ...).
Using them is as simple as adding "-device virtio-tablet-device" to
your command line, for use all transports except pci. virtio-pci
support comes as separate patch, once virtio-pci got virtio 1.0
support.

This patch adds virtio-input support to qemu. It brings a abstract
base class providing core support, other classes can build on it to
actually implement input devices.
virtio-input basically sends linux input layer events (evdev) over
virtio.
