Description Laszlo Ersek 2017-06-08 20:15:30 UTC 
qemu-kvm-rhev-2.9.0-8.el7.aarch64 does not have "CONFIG_USB=y" in "default-configs/aarch64-softmmu.mak". Therefore the source file "hw/usb/dev-hid.c" is not built into the aarch64 emulator, and it lacks the "usb-tablet" and "usb-kbd" devices.

Without USB human input devices, virtio-gpu-pci is useless, because the user won't be able to type, and to point n' click, while using the graphical display.

Please enable CONFIG_USB.

(Regarding host controllers, we already have CONFIG_USB_XHCI=y, from bug 1446570.)
