[Qemu-devel] [PATCH v3 0/9] serial device hotplug patch series.


From: Gerd Hoffmann
Subject: [Qemu-devel] [PATCH v3 0/9] serial device hotplug patch series.
Date: Mon, 15 Oct 2012 10:06:48 +0200

This patch series tackles serial device hotplug.

The first four patches have been on the list before, they implement
pci-serial devices featuring a hot-pluggable 16550 uart and got some
minor tweaks only.

The next two patches update the usb-serial device.  It will only show up
in the guest when the chardev is open.  You'll see the difference with
socket chardevs:  If you open the chardev (by connecting to the socket)
the device will show up in the guest, on close (disconnect) it will
disappear.

Final three patches cleanup chardev a bit and adds chardev hotplug to
the mix, which makes the other patches alot more useful.  It is the
missing bit needed to really hotplug serial devices:

   (qemu) chardev_add file,id=pciserial,path=/root/hotchardev.log
   (qemu) device_add pci-serial,id=pciserial,chardev=pciserial

And the reverse:

   (qemu) device_del pciserial
   (qemu) chardev_del pciserial

New in v2:
 - added two chardev cleanup patches.
 - switched chardev_{add,del} commands to netdev_{add,del} style.

cheers,
  Gerd
