On a serial console, SysRq is BREAK:

I meant to write 'serial console' there. You will note that I carefully
avoided the topic of sysrq on the virtual consoles because I could find
no information on the key combo,
Right, I got totally confused by your two lines starting with "On",
incorrectly assuming the first was for virtual consoles, and the second for
serial consoles...

Amiga keyboards do not have a SysRq key.  We used to implement it
using SHIFT+ALTGR+HELP in the old drivers/char/amikeyb.c, but that
feature was lost with the transition to drivers/input/keyboard/amikbd.c
Thanks - same problem in atakbd.c. What key is 'KEY_102ND'? Does it even
exists on our keyboards?
That is the keycode generated from raw Amiga keycode 0x30?
According to [1] it is present on some international layouts.

Pity - that's useless for sysrq in the general case then.

Does anyone really need the Help key? Should we make that one return the sysrq keycode rather?

Cheers,
