[Qemu-devel] [PATCH v3 1/6] chardev: comment details for CLOSED event


From: Peter Xu
Subject: [Qemu-devel] [PATCH v3 1/6] chardev: comment details for CLOSED event
Date: Fri, 15 Jun 2018 09:42:44 +0800

It was unclear before on what does the CLOSED event mean.  Meanwhile we
add a TODO to fix up the CLOSED event in the future when the in/out
ports are different for a chardev.
