Re: [Qemu-devel] [PATCH 1/4] virtio-serial: use uint32_t to count ports

[Rob Landley]

Speaking of virtio-serial, is there a way to get virtio serial ports to  
attach to qemu's stdin/stdout the way other serial ports can (and which  
is the default with --nographic for conventional serial ports), or do  
you still have to make a magic char device on the host?

I never understood why _using_ virtio serial ports was so different,  
but it's been about a year since I looked at them (because they were so  
different).
