+                                QEMU Barrier Client
+
+
+* About
+
+    Barrier is a KVM (Keyboard-Video-Mouse) software forked from Symless's
+    synergy 1.9 codebase.
+
+    See https://github.com/debauchee/barrier
+
+* QEMU usage
+
+    Generally, mouse and keyboard are grabbed through the QEMU video
+    interface emulation.
+
+    But when we want to use a video graphic adapter via a PCI passthrough
+    there is no way to provide the keyboard and mouse inputs to the VM
+    except by plugging a second set of mouse and keyboard to the host
+    or by installing a KVM software in the guest OS.
+
+    The QEMU Barrier client avoids this by implementing directly the Barrier
+    protocol into QEMU.
+
+    This protocol is enabled by adding an input-barrier object to QEMU.
+
+    Syntax: input-barrier,id=<object-id>,name=<guest display name>
+            [,server=<barrier server address>][,port=<barrier server port>]
+            [,x-origin=<x-origin>][,y-origin=<y-origin>]
+            [,width=<width>][,height=<height>]
+
+    The object can be added on the QEMU command line, for instance with:
+
+        ... -object input-barrier,id=barrier0,name=VM-1 ...
+
+    where VM-1 is the name the display configured int the Barrier server
+    on the host providing the mouse and the keyboard events.
+
+    by default <barrier server address> is "localhost", port is 24800,
+    <x-origin> and <y-origin> are set to 0, <width> and <height> to
+    1920 and 1080.
+
+    If Barrier server is stopped QEMU needs to be reconnected manually,
+    by removing and re-adding the input-barrier object, for instance
+    with the help of the HMP monitor:
+
+        (qemu) object_del barrier0
+        (qemu) object_add input-barrier,id=barrier0,name=VM-1
+
+* Message format
+
+    Message format between the server and client is in two parts:
+
+        1- the payload length is a 32bit integer in network endianness,
+        2- the payload
+
+    The payload starts with a 4byte string (without NUL) which is the
+    command. The first command between the server and the client
+    is the only command not encoded on 4 bytes ("Barrier").
+    The remaining part of the payload is decoded according to the command.
+
+* Protocol Description (from barrier/src/lib/barrier/protocol_types.h)
+
+    - barrierCmdHello          "Barrier"
+
+      Direction:  server -> client
+      Parameters: { int16_t minor, int16_t major }
+      Description:

+

+      Description:
+
+          Respond to hello from server
+          minor = protocol major version number supported by client

+          barrierCmdQInfo message.  It must also send this message when the
+          screen's resolution changes.  In this case, the client screen should
+          ignore any barrierCmdDMouseMove messages until it receives a
+          barrierCmdCInfoAck in order to prevent attempts to move the mouse off
+          the new screen area.

+                     toggle modifier key that is activated on entry to the
+                     screen.  the secondary screen should adjust its toggle
+                     modifiers to reflect that state.
