[Qemu-devel] [PATCH 00/23] switch sockets+chardev to QemuOpts.

[Gerd Hoffmann]

  Hi,

This patch series switches the chardev initialization to QemuOpts,
brings a few improvements and paves the way for qdev-ifying devices
which need a chardev on the host side (i.e. serial ports + friends).

Changes:
  * switch sockets to QemuOpts.
  * switch chardevs to QemuOpts.
  * new -chardev switch, create named and unconnected chardevs.
  * lookup chardevs by name.
  * IPv6 support for udp chardev.
  * A few cleanups and fixes along the way.

Check the individual patches for all the details.

cheers,
  Gerd
