> 3.Send string "touch abc\n" to the guest:
> virsh send-key rhel7.3 --codeset linux 20 24 22 46 35 57 30 48 46 28
send-key doesn't send strings. It sends key combinations, i.e. all specified keys are pressed at the same time, for things like "Ctrl-C". If you want sent strings you need a sequence of send-key calls.

Description of problem: send-key can not send the string containing the same character to the guest correctly Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): libvirt-3.2.0-14.el7.x86_64 qemu-kvm-rhev-2.9.0-14.el7.x86_64 How reproducible: 100% Steps to reproduce: 1.Start a guest with virtio keyboard: #virsh dumpxml rhel7.3 ... <input type='keyboard' bus='virtio'> <address type='pci' domain='0x0000' bus='0x00' slot='0x04' function='0x0'/> </input> ... 2.Login in the guest and run a terminal in the guest; 3.Send string "touch abc\n" to the guest: virsh send-key rhel7.3 --codeset linux 20 24 22 46 35 57 30 48 46 28 4.Check the terminal in the guest: #touch ab Check the file created: # ll ab -rw-r--r--. 1 root root 0 Jul 3 17:17 ab Actual results: Only "touch ab\n" was sent to the guest.The second 'c' in the string was not sent to thet guest, a file named 'ab' created in the guest. Expected results: Should send 'touch abc\n" correctly to the guest and will create a file named 'abc' in the guest. Additional info: 1.With the usb keyboard, it will send "touch a" to the guest. And with the ps2 keyboard, the issue can not be reproduced everytime. 2.Check the log in the libvirtd.log: 2017-07-03 09:36:08.171+0000: 18513: debug : qemuMonitorSendKey:3403 : holdtime=0, nkeycodes=10 2017-07-03 09:36:08.171+0000: 18513: debug : qemuMonitorSendKey:3405 : mon:0x7f97000830d0 vm:0x7f96a42acb00 json:1 fd:27 2017-07-03 09:36:08.171+0000: 18513: debug : virJSONValueToString:1904 : result={"execute":"send-key","arguments":{"keys":[{"type":"number","data":20},{"type":"number","data":24},{"type":"number","data":22},{"type":"number","data":46},{"type":"number","data":35},{"type":"number","data":57},{"type":"number","data":30},{"type":"number","data":48},{"type":"number","data":46},{"type":"number","data":28}]},"id":"libvirt-35"} 2017-07-03 09:36:08.171+0000: 18513: debug : qemuMonitorJSONCommandWithFd:298 : Send command '{"execute":"send-key","arguments":{"keys":[{"type":"number","data":20},{"type":"number","data":24},{"type":"number","data":22},{"type":"number","data":46},{"type":"number","data":35},{"type":"number","data":57},{"type":"number","data":30},{"type":"number","data":48},{"type":"number","data":46},{"type":"number","data":28}]},"id":"libvirt-35"}' for write with FD -1 2017-07-03 09:36:08.171+0000: 18513: info : qemuMonitorSend:1034 : QEMU_MONITOR_SEND_MSG: mon=0x7f97000830d0 msg={"execute":"send-key","arguments":{"keys":[{"type":"number","data":20},{"type":"number","data":24},{"type":"number","data":22},{"type":"number","data":46},{"type":"number","data":35},{"type":"number","data":57},{"type":"number","data":30},{"type":"number","data":48},{"type":"number","data":46},{"type":"number","data":28}]},"id":"libvirt-35"} 2017-07-03 09:36:08.171+0000: 18512: info : qemuMonitorIOWrite:536 : QEMU_MONITOR_IO_WRITE: mon=0x7f97000830d0 buf={"execute":"send-key","arguments":{"keys":[{"type":"number","data":20},{"type":"number","data":24},{"type":"number","data":22},{"type":"number","data":46},{"type":"number","data":35},{"type":"number","data":57},{"type":"number","data":30},{"type":"number","data":48},{"type":"number","data":46},{"type":"number","data":28}]},"id":"libvirt-35"} 2017-07-03 09:36:08.173+0000: 18513: debug : virThreadJobClear:121 : Thread 18513 (virNetServerHandleJob) finished job remoteDispatchDomainSendKey with ret=0
