2009-09-11switch chardev to QemuOpts: infrastructure, null deviceGerd Hoffmann
start switching chardevs to QemuOpts. This patch adds the infrastructure and converts the null device. The patch brings two new functions: qemu_chr_open_opts() same as qemu_chr_open(), but uses QemuOpts instead of a option char string. qemu_chr_parse_compat() accepts a traditional chardev option string, returns the corresponding QemuOpts instance, to handle backward compatibility. The patch also adds a new -chardev switch which can be used to create named+unconnected chardevs, like this: -chardev null,id=test This uses the new qemu_chr_open_opts. Thus with this patch alone only the null device works. The other devices will follow ... Signed-off-by: Gerd Hoffmann <kraxel@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Anthony Liguori <aliguori@us.ibm.com>

2009-07-27Add SCM_RIGHTS support to unix socket character devicesMark McLoughlin
If a file descriptor is passed via a message with SCM_RIGHTS ancillary data on a unix socket, store the file descriptor for use in the chr_read() handler. Close the file descriptor if it was not used. The qemu_chr_get_msgfd() API provides access to the passed descriptor.

2009-03-05monitor: Improve mux'ed console experience (Jan Kiszka)aliguori
Up to now, you never really knew if you already switched the console after pressing CTRL-A C or if you mistyped it again. This patch clarifies the situation by providing a prompt in a new line and injecting a linebreak when switching away again. For this purpose, the two events CHR_EVENT_MUX_IN and CHR_EVENT_MUX_OUT are introduced and distributed on focus switches.

2009-03-05monitor: Rework API (Jan Kiszka)aliguori
Refactor the monitor API and prepare it for decoupled terminals: term_print functions are renamed to monitor_* and all monitor services gain a new parameter (mon) that will once refer to the monitor instance the output is supposed to appear on. However, the argument remains unused for now. All monitor command callbacks are also extended by a mon parameter so that command handlers are able to pass an appropriate reference to monitor output services. For the case that monitor outputs so far happen without clearly identifiable context, the global variable cur_mon is introduced that shall once provide a pointer either to the current active monitor (while processing commands) or to the default one. On the mid or long term, those use case will be obsoleted so that this variable can be removed again. Due to the broad usage of the monitor interface, this patch mostly deals with converting users of the monitor API. A few of them are already extended to pass 'mon' from the command handler further down to internal functions that invoke monitor_printf. At this chance, monitor-related prototypes are moved from console.h to a new monitor.h. The same is done for the readline API.

2009-03-05char: Fix initial reset (Jan Kiszka)aliguori
Recent changes to the graphical console initialization broke the initial CHR_EVENT_RESET distribution. The reset BHs generated on char device initialization are now already consumed during machine init (ide init ... -> qemu_aio_wait -> qemu_bh_poll). Therefore, this patch moves the initial qemu_chr_reset calls into a separate funtion which is called after machine init.

The goal of this series is to move the CharDriverState code out of vl.c and into its own file, qemu-char.c. This patch moves around some declarations so the next patch can be pure code motion.

2008-10-31Implement "info chardev" command. (Gerd Hoffmann)aliguori
This patch makes qemu keep track of the character devices in use and implements a "info chardev" monitor command to print a list. qemu_chr_open() sticks the devices into a linked list now. It got a new argument (label), so there is a name for each device. It also assigns a filename to each character device. By default it just copyes the filename passed in. Individual drivers can fill in something else though. qemu_chr_open_pty() sets the filename to name of the pseudo tty allocated. Output looks like this: (qemu) info chardev monitor: filename=unix:/tmp/run.sh-26827/monitor,server,nowait serial0: filename=unix:/tmp/run.sh-26827/console,server serial1: filename=pty:/dev/pts/5 parallel0: filename=vc:640x480 Signed-off-by: Gerd Hoffmann <kraxel@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Anthony Liguori <aliguori@us.ibm.com> git-svn-id: svn://svn.savannah.nongnu.org/qemu/trunk@5575 c046a42c-6fe2-441c-8c8c-71466251a162

2008-08-22Parallel Port Direction Fixaurel32
The direction bit in the control register should not be directly set using PPWCONTROL. The kernel gives the following debug message. parport0 (ppdev0): use data_reverse for this! More over setting the data pins to forward mode does not work, perhaps a bug in the Linux PP driver. The right way to do this is to use PPDATADIR to set the direction. The patch checks if the user is toggling the direction bit, and invokes PPDATADIR to do the job.

2008-08-11Upgrade emulated UART to 16550A (Stefano Stabellini)aliguori
This patch upgrades the emulated UART to 16550A, the code comes from xen-unstable. The main improvement was introduced with the following patch and subsequent email thread: http://lists.xensource.com/archives/html/xen-devel/2007-12/msg00129.html The changes compared to previous version are: - change clock_gettime to qemu_get_clock - no token bucket anymore; - fixed a small bug handling IRQs; this was the problem that prevented kgdb to work over the serial (thanks to Jason Wessel for the help spotting and reproducing this bug). - many many style fixes; - savevm version number increased; - not including termios.h and sys/ioctl.h anymore, declaring static constants in qemu-char.h instead; Signed-off-by: Stefano Stabellini <stefano.stabellini@eu.citrix.com> Signed-off-by: Anthony Liguori <aliguori@us.ibm.com> git-svn-id: svn://svn.savannah.nongnu.org/qemu/trunk@4993 c046a42c-6fe2-441c-8c8c-71466251a162
