2011-07-23qemu-char: Print strerror message on failureKevin Wolf
The only way for chardev drivers to communicate an error was to return a NULL pointer, which resulted in an error message that said _that_ something went wrong, but not _why_. This patch changes the interface to return 0/-errno and updates qemu_chr_open_opts to use strerror to display a more helpful error message.

2011-06-06spice-qemu-char: Fix flow control in client -> guest directionHans de Goede
In the old spice-vmc device we used to have: last_out = virtio_serial_write(&svc->port, p, MIN(len, VMC_MAX_HOST_WRITE)); if (last_out > 0) ... Now in the chardev backend we have: last_out = MIN(len, VMC_MAX_HOST_WRITE); qemu_chr_read(scd->chr, p, last_out); if (last_out > 0) { ... Which causes us to no longer detect if the virtio port is not ready to receive data from us. chardev actually has a mechanism to detect this, but it requires a separate call to qemu_chr_can_read, before calling qemu_chr_read (which return void). This patch uses qemu_chr_can_read to fix the flow control from client to guest. Signed-off-by: Hans de Goede <hdegoede@redhat.com>
2011-04-28spice-chardev: listen to frontend guest open / closeHans de Goede
Note the vmc_register_interface() in spice_chr_write is left in place in case someone uses spice-chardev with a frontend which does not have guest open / close notification.

2011-01-24spice: add chardev (v5)Alon Levy
Adding a chardev backend for spice, where spice determines what to do with it based on the name attribute given during chardev creation. For usage by spice vdagent in conjunction with a properly named virtio-serial device, and future smartcard channel usage. Example usage: qemu -device virtio-serial -chardev spicevmc,name=vdagent,id=vdagent \ -device virtserialport,chardev=vdagent,name=com.redhat.spice.0 v4->v5: * add tracing events * fix missing comma * fix help string to show debug is optional v3->v4: * updated commit message v1->v3 changes: (v2 had a wrong commit message) * removed spice-qemu-char.h, folded into ui/qemu-spice.h * removed dead IOCTL code * removed comment * removed ifdef CONFIG_SPICE from qemu-config.c and qemu-options.hx help.
