RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit).

  /usr/libexec/qemu-kvm -m 4G -smp 2 -cpu cpu64-rhel6,+x2apic -drive file=/home/win2008r2-1,format=qcow2,if=none,id=drive-ide0-0-0,werror=stop,rerror=stop,cache=none  -device ide-drive,bus=ide.0,unit=0,drive=drive-ide0-0-0,id=ide0-0-0 -netdev tap,id=hostnet0,script=/etc/qemu-ifup -device virtio-net-pci,netdev=hostnet0,mac=00:10:20:2d:31:21,bus=pci.0,addr=0x4,id=net0 -boot order=cdn -uuid 3290efd3-7c9e-44f9-b5f7-af0f3a1b3066 -rtc-td-hack -no-kvm-pit-reinjection -monitor stdio -name 2008SP2-64 -spice port=5830,disable-ticketing -vga qxl -usb -device usb-tablet -device usb-kbd,id=kbd1

Steps to Reproduce:
1.boot a win2008(64bit) guest with '-usb -device usb-kbd,id=kbd1'
2.input any character in a txt file

  
Actual results:

usb-kbd: warning: key event queue full
usb-kbd: warning: key event queue full
usb-kbd: warning: key event queue full


Expected results:
  the key-board can work normally


Additional info:
1)the rhel guest is ok for this.
2)when open 'device manager' ,press 'keyboard',you found
"Stardard Ps/2 Keyboard"
"HID compliant keyboard"
.this  senario ,the keyboard works correctly,can type characters in guest
