Well, I was wrong -- it is sending a duplicate mouse packets when the mouse wheel is
rotated. The packets correctly represent the mouse buttons state. I just now
discovered that one of my Logitech mice sends continuous mouse events when the wheel
is rotated half a notch and held there. Another Logitech mouse doesn't do that but
does send multiple (6-10) events per notch. A Microsoft mouse sends 2 events per notch.
I don't know where these should be suppressed. Mouse wheel rotation of a host mouse
shouldn't send anything to the emulated Sun mouse. I suspect that the unwanted host
events are propagating down to escc via calls to sunmouse_sync. So is sunmouse_sync
where they should be filtered out? Probably, because the calling code is not specific
to sunmouse and for other mice those calls are needed.
Ah so it's from the events generated by the mouse wheel? I think we can safely assume
that Sun never produced any wheeled serial mice, in which case it should be possible
to filter those events out before they get to the guest.
I should have a bit of time later today to make the relevant changes and send out a
v2 patch.
