When I run emacs over ssh terminal (no X) on 3.11-rc3 it often ignores key strokes. I first thought the system was busy or so, but when stracing the emacs it was not blocked.
Andi, More information might help me narrow this down since I can't reproduce this. Is the ssh session remote? Can you reproduce this on a local ssh session? What version of emacs is this? Is it the nox flavor? What distribution/version? What platform?
Here's a typical sequence. select/SIGIO wakes it up, but then FIONREAD returns 0. I'm not fully sure when it started.
In the 3.11 cycle? or could have started back on 3.9 or earlier? Could you try to reproduce this on linux-next?
It does not happen all the time, but is quite frequent. ioctl(3, FIONREAD, [0]) = 0 pselect6(4, [3], [], NULL, {17, 952336932}, {NULL, 8}) = 1 (in [3], left {17, 504942810}) --- SIGIO {si_signo=SIGIO, si_code=SI_KERNEL} --- rt_sigreturn() = 1 ioctl(3, FIONREAD, [0]) = 0 ioctl(3, FIONREAD, [0]) = 0 pselect6(4, [3], [], NULL, {17, 504298807}, {NULL, 8}) = ?

Would you please attach the full strace of emacs from this session?
