Perhaps Alex can explain his changes in QEMU:

https://github.com/agraf/qemu/commit/26a9dfedd107a8716e833f2e959500c0b8a435e7

But in kernel I see only 2-byte header:

http://lxr.free-electrons.com/source/drivers/macintosh/adb.c#L424
http://lxr.free-electrons.com/source/drivers/macintosh/via-cuda.c#L354

The first byte is ADB_PACKET (0) followed by the ADB command.

ADB command is a 8 bit command packet (4 bit address + 2 bit command + 2
bit register), followed by 2 to 8 bytes data packet.

We can find some pseudo-3-bytes header in AppleCuda source, but it's not:

http://www.opensource.apple.com/tarballs/AppleCuda/AppleCuda-100.0.3.tar.gz

IOReturn IOCudaADBController::setAutoPollEnable ( bool enable )
{
    cuda_request_t cmd;

    adb_init_request(&cmd);
    ADB_BUILD_CMD3(&cmd, ADB_PACKET_PSEUDO,
ADB_PSEUDOCMD_START_STOP_AUTO_POLL, (enable ? 1 : 0));

    return CudaDriver->doSyncRequest(&cmd);
}

But ADB_PACKET_PSEUDO is 1,  ADB_PSEUDOCMD_START_STOP_AUTO_POLL is 1.

In Linux we have:

http://lxr.free-electrons.com/source/drivers/macintosh/via-cuda.c#L137

137     cuda_request(&req, NULL, 3, CUDA_PACKET, CUDA_AUTOPOLL, 1);

where CUDA_PACKET is 1, and CUDA_AUTOPOLL is 1.
So Apple ADB_PACKET_PSEUDO == Linux CUDA_PACKET.

IMHO, it's not 3-byte header for ADB, but for the cuda controller.

In AppleCuda source, ADB read and write are only done with 2-byte header:

IOCudaADBController::readFromDevice ()
...
ADB_BUILD_CMD2(&cmd, ADB_PACKET_ADB,
            (ADB_ADBCMD_READ_ADB | (address << 4) | (adbRegister & 3)));
...
IOCudaADBController::writeToDevice ()
...
ADB_BUILD_CMD2(&cmd, ADB_PACKET_ADB,
            (ADB_ADBCMD_WRITE_ADB | (address << 4) | (adbRegister & 3)));
...
