+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #665017 +++ qemu doesn't enqueue mouse events, it just records the latest mouse state. This can cause some lost mouse double clicks if the events are not processed fast enough. In particular, dragging/doubleclicking are impossible on a high latency connection (e.g. Milan->Phoenix->Brno). I'll post patches to upstream QEMU to fix this, based on these xen-unstable qemu.git patches: 28b7599603cc2165cd68961be034979657759f40 Queue some mouse events. bfaaa608ded03c458a970be818cc319f5fe914d7 Try to fix USB HID and make the HID reports readable dd0a0055a99b0226f31b29c14e2c18eeaac757f7 Fix new USB HID queueing
Reproduce the issue on kvm-83-224 Verified the issue on kvm-83-235 steps:( for this case I use the slowest vpn proxy address to test) 1.start win08 guest as followings : eg:/usr/libexec/qemu-kvm -M rhel5.6.0 -m 2048 -smp 4,sockets=4,cores=1,threads=1 -name windows2008_qcow2 -uuid cddeab65-2ded-43db-094a-fd4f8ec2d69f -monitor stdio -localtime -no-kvm-pit-reinjection -boot c -drive file=/home/windows08.qcow2,if=ide,bus=0,unit=0,format=qcow2,cache=none -drive file=/home/en_windows_server_2008_datacenter_enterprise_standard_sp2_x64_dvd_342336.iso,if=ide,media=cdrom,bus=1,unit=0,readonly=on,format=raw -net nic,macaddr=54:52:00:4f:26:51,vlan=0 -net tap,vlan=0 -serial pty -parallel none -usb -usbdevice tablet -vnc :1 -k en-us -balloon none 2.in the guest ,modified the double-click speed to fastest in the control panel. 3,Tried to open some folder or files by using double-click Acutal Results: on kvm-83-224 ,50% times double clicks in the guest does *not* work. on kvm-83-235 ,random times double clicks in the guest does *not* work Based on above ,this issue has been fixed.
Technical note added. If any revisions are required, please edit the "Technical Notes" field accordingly. All revisions will be proofread by the Engineering Content Services team. New Contents: The QEMU emulator did not enqueue mouse events; it simply records the latest mouse state. Prior to this update, double click or dragging mouse events were sometimes lost, especially on high-latency connections. Now, the code for mouse descriptors has been fixed, and lost mouse events occur much less frequently.
