Bug ID: 282411
Summary: ukbd: apple_swap not enabled on Apple ISO keyboard
Product: Base System
Version: Unspecified
Hardware: Any
OS: Any
Status: New
Severity: Affects Only Me
Priority: ---
Component: usb
Assignee: usb@FreeBSD.org
Reporter: frank.hilgendorf@posteo.de
On my MacBookPro 3,1 with internal ISO keyboard, apple_swap is not enabled
although it is required.
sysadmin@hilschubookBSD:~ $ sudo usbconfig -d ugen5.3 dump_device_desc
ugen5.3: <Apple Computer Apple Internal Keyboard / Trackpad> at usbus5, cfg=0
md=HOST spd=FULL (12Mbps) pwr=ON (40mA)
bLength = 0x0012
bDescriptorType = 0x0001
bcdUSB = 0x0200
bDeviceClass = 0x0000 <Probed by interface class>
bDeviceSubClass = 0x0000
bDeviceProtocol = 0x0000
bMaxPacketSize0 = 0x0008
idVendor = 0x05ac
idProduct = 0x021b
bcdDevice = 0x0018
iManufacturer = 0x0001 <Apple Computer>
iProduct = 0x0002 <Apple Internal Keyboard / Trackpad>
iSerialNumber = 0x0000 <no string>
bNumConfigurations = 0x0001
In ukbd.c, currently apple_swap is enabled when the Eject key is found in the
usage page.
IMO it would be better to enable apple_swap on all ISO keyboards.
In this post
https://stackoverflow.com/questions/3202629/where-can-i-find-a-list-of-mac-virtual-key-codes
the situation is explained, referring to 'Apple toolbox essentials'
https://developer.apple.com/library/archive/documentation/mac/pdf/MacintoshToolboxEssentials.pdf
There, the key swap between ANSI and ISO layouts is depicted on page 2-43.
I have prepared a patch in Pull Request
