For example, when booting a NetBSD installation CD-ROM, the menu looks like this: 1. Install NetBSD 2. Install NetBSD (no ACPI) 3. Install NetBSD (no ACPI, no SMP) 4. Drop to boot prompt Choose an option; RETURN for default; SPACE to stop countdown. Option 1 will be chosen in 30 seconds. When booting NetBSD in a recent qemu using an emulated serial console, making this menu selection no longer works: when you type the selected number, the keyboard input is ignored, and the 30-second countdown continues. In older versions of qemu, it works. To reproduce the problem, run: wget http://ftp.netbsd.org/pub/NetBSD/NetBSD-7.1.1/amd64/installation/cdrom/boot-com.iso qemu-system-x86_64 -nographic -cdrom boot-com.iso During the 30-second countdown, press 4 Expected behavior: The countdown stops and you get a ">" prompt Incorrect behavior: The countdown continues There may also be some corruption of the terminal output; for example, "Option 1 will be chosen in 30 seconds" may be displayed as "Option 1 will be chosen in p0 seconds". Using bisection, I have determined that the problem appeared with qemu commit 083fab0290f2c40d3d04f7f22eed9c8f2d5b6787, in which seabios was updated to 1.11 prerelease, and the problem is still there as of commit 7398166ddf7c6dbbc9cae6ac69bb2feda14b40ac. The host operating system used for the tests was Debian 9 x86_64. Credit for discovering this bug goes to Paul Goyette.
