Keyboard input does not work on boot

[tyilo]

When using mkinitcpio with the sd-encrypt hook, the dm-crypt password prompt shows asterisks by default, whereas booster doesn't show anything at all.

Given that my keyboard recently stopped working in booster (probably due to systemd/systemd#19191), it would be nice if it was possible to enable showing asterisks when entering the password in booster.

Maybe this can already be done by loading sd-encrypt somehow?

Booster does not use mkinitcpio hook and neither uses any systemd functionality.

It is weird. If the problem in booster exists then it should be debugged. Do you still see this problem with the latest booster? I'll be happy to debug and fix it properly.

Visible asterisks reduce security of the password as it shows how many symbols it contains. But I am fine with having this feature optional e.g. enabling it with TAB pressed.

I think this might be caused by the systemd bug. I will re-test booster when it is fixed.

Yeah that sounds great.

It turns out that the recent changes to linux package [1] break booster keyboard functionality. I am working on a fix for it.

[1] archlinux/svntogit-packages@f0db16b#diff-3e341d2d9c67be01819b25b25d5e53ea3cdf3a38d28846cda85a195eb9b7203a

And it is strange, I just rebuilt image for the latest kernel and it works just fine. The atkbd and serio modules included as expected.

It must be some glich similar to #54.

[anatol]

So I boot into the old kernel:

$ uname -r
5.11.12-arch1-1

This kernel has builtin serio and atkdb modules. In the next kernel version these modules got shipped as loadable *.ko files and it should be added to the output image.

booster handles such case (implemented in #54). It gets information about loadable modules from /sys/modules. So I checked this sys listing at 5.11.12-arch1-1 and it is what I have:

$ ls /sys/module

neither serio nor atkbd is not listed under this sysfs. This is super weird. Does anybody have an idea why it is not here? And what is the best way to get the complete list of builtin modules for the currently running kernel?

[anatol]

And as a workaround for the original keyboard problem either

1. use universal mode
2. add modules: serio,atkbd to the config

[anatol]

@tyilo have you had this problem recently? Should the ticket be closed as obsolete?

[tyilo]

Yes, I thin this is not a problem anymore.

[bjo81]

I switched to booster and my usb-keyboard is not working, so no clue if this was caused by this bug.

[anatol]

@bjo81 could you please provide more information about your setup? what booster version do you use? is there any special about your keyboard (bluetooth??). what kernel do you use?

Could you please also provide output of lsmod and booster -debug?

[bjo81]

Sure. I'm using booster 0.6-1 on Arch.

The keyboard is a usual USB keyboard, nothing special like bluetooth. (046a:0023), modules_force_load: hid_cherry helped as a workaround.

modules_force_load: hid_cherry helped as a workaround.

thank you for this info.

Right now booster uses kernel/drivers/hid/usbhid/ to check the modules that need to be added to image by default. hid_cherry that is located at kernel/drivers/hid thus config modification is needed.

I checked mkinitcpio and I see that it checks for kernel/drivers/hid/hid* modules. I think booster should lookup modules at kernel/drivers/hid/ as well.

@bjo81 Could you please check if this commit 950b1f8 makes your keyboard functional by default without any config modification?

Thanks, keyboard works now by default.
