<p class="Pp">The <code class="Nm">kbd</code> driver provides an interface to
the workstation console keyboard. The Sun "type 2", "type
3", "type 4", and "type 5" keyboards are supported.
The "type 5" keyboard is treated as if it were a "type
4". All types generate keycodes encoding the key identity and motion
(up or down) as the keys are pressed and released. The
<code class="Nm">kbd</code> driver either passes the keycodes to an
application as they come in (e.g.) <a class="Xr">Xorg(1)</a>, or translates
them into ASCII characters first according to a set of built-in tables.</p>
<p class="Pp">If the <code class="Nm">kbd</code> is configured as the device to
be used for system console input (see <a class="Xr">sparc/openprom(4)</a>),
it will be internally connected to the <span class="Pa">/dev/console</span>
device special file, which can be used as a <a class="Xr">tty(4)</a>
device.</p>
<p class="Pp">The device special file <span class="Pa">/dev/kbd</span> is used
to get direct access to the keyboard input stream.</p>
<p class="Pp">The following ioctl's are supported (mostly just enough to keep
the <a class="Xr">Xorg(1)</a> server going):</p>
<dl class="Bl-tag">
<dt>KIOCTRANS</dt>
<dd>Set translation mode. The argument is of type <var class="Fa">int *</var>,
the only value supported is <code class="Dv">TR_UNTRANS_EVENT</code>.</dd>
<dt>KIOCGTRANS</dt>
<dd>Get translation mode. The argument is of type <var class="Fa">int *</var>.
<code class="Dv">TR_UNTRANS_EVENT</code> is always returned.</dd>
<dt>KIOCGETKEY</dt>
<dd>Fill in old-style key station translation. The argument is of type
<var class="Fa">struct okiockey *</var>.</dd>
<dt>KIOCCMD</dt>
<dd>Send a command to the keyboard. The argument is of type
<var class="Fa">int *</var>, and can have one of the following values:
<dl class="Bl-tag">
<dt>KBD_CMD_BELL</dt>
<dd>Start the keyboard beeper.</dd>
<dt>KBD_CMD_NOBELL</dt>
<dd>Stop the keyboard beeper.</dd>
<dt>KBD_CMD_CLICK</dt>
<dd>Instruct the keyboard to make extra noise when touching keys.</dd>
<dt>KBD_CMD_NOCLICK</dt>
<dd>Instruct the keyboard to stop making extra noise when touching
keys.</dd>
</dl>
</dd>
<dt>KIOCTYPE</dt>
<dd>Get keyboard type. The argument is of type <var class="Fa">int *</var>, in
which one of the values <code class="Dv">KB_SUN2</code>,
<code class="Dv">KB_SUN3</code> or <code class="Dv">KB_SUN4</code> will be
returned.</dd>
<dt>KIOCSDIRECT</dt>
<dd>Route the keyboard input stream through the SunOS compatible event module.
The argument is of type <var class="Fa">int *</var>, a non-zero value will
put the driver into "event" mode, while a value of zero will
make it return to "ASCII translation" mode.</dd>
<dt>KIOCSKEY</dt>
<dd>Set key station translation. The argument is of type
<var class="Fa">struct kiockey *</var> (see
<span class="Pa">/usr/include/machine/kbio.h</span> <span class="No">for
more details</span>).</dd>
<dt>KIOCGKEY</dt>
<dd>Get key station translation. The argument is of type
<var class="Fa">struct kiockey *</var>.</dd>
<dt>KIOCLAYOUT</dt>
<dd>Get keyboard layout (“type 4” only). The argument is of type
<var class="Fa">int *</var>, in which the uninterpreted result of the
<code class="Dv">KBD_CMD_GLAYOUT</code> keyboard command is returned (on
<code class="Dv">KB_SUN4</code> type keyboards this will be the setting of
a DIP switch bank).</dd>
<dt>KIOCSLED</dt>
<dd>Set LED state (“type 4” only). The argument is of type
<var class="Fa">char *</var>, and is the inclusive OR of the following
flags:
<p class="Pp"></p>
<dl class="Bl-tag Bl-compact">
<dt>LED_NUM_LOCK</dt>
<dd style="width: auto;"> </dd>
<dt>LED_COMPOSE</dt>
<dd style="width: auto;"> </dd>
<dt>LED_SCROLL_LOCK</dt>
<dd style="width: auto;"> </dd>
<dt>LED_CAPS_LOCK</dt>
<dd style="width: auto;"> </dd>
</dl>
<p class="Pp">Each of these flags turn on the LED in the obvious key.</p>
</dd>
<dt>KIOCGLED</dt>
<dd>Get LED state (“type 4” only). The argument is of type
<var class="Fa">char *</var>, in which the current LED state is
returned.</dd>
