Hi Vipul,

Great that you managed to setup a debugging environment. The logs look
very promising: it looks like xenfb.c is handling events as expected.
So it would apparently seem that xen-fbfront.c -> xenfb.c connection is
working.

So the next step is the xenfb.c -> ./ui/vnc.c is working.

It could be that the pixels and mouse events arrive just fine in
xenfb.c, but then there is an issue with exporting them to the vncserver
implementation inside QEMU, which is ./ui/vnc.c. The interesting
functions there are qemu_create_displaysurface,
qemu_create_displaysurface_from, dpy_gfx_replace_surface,
dpy_gfx_update, and dpy_gfx_check_format.

Specifically dpy_gfx_update should cause VNC to render the new area.

qemu_create_displaysurface_from let VNC use the xenfb buffer directly
with VNC, rather than using a secondary buffer and memory copies.
Interestingly, dpy_gfx_check_format should be used to check if it is
appropriate to share the buffer (qemu_create_displaysurface_from) or not
(qemu_create_displaysurface) but we don't call it.

I think it would be good to add a call to dpy_gfx_check_format in
xenfb_update where we call qemu_create_displaysurface_from and also add
a printk.

You can try to disable the buffer sharing by replacing
qemu_create_displaysurface_from with qemu_create_displaysurface. You can
also try to use another QEMU UI like SDL to see if the problem is
specific to VNC only.

Cheers,

Stefano
