[Qemu-devel] [Bug 1586756] Re: "-serial unix:" option of qemu-system-* i

Subject: [Qemu-devel] [Bug 1586756] Re: "-serial unix:" option of qemu-system-* is broken in qemu 2.6.0

Looking at the code in 2.5.0, the qemu_chr_fe_write method would see
EAGAIN too, because the tcp_chr_accept() method would always set the
newly connected client to non-blocking mode. So thre's no obvious change
in behaviour between 2.5 and 2.6 wrt to blocking sockets.

Title:
  "-serial unix:" option of qemu-system-* is broken in qemu 2.6.0

Status in QEMU:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  I found a bug of "-serial unix:PATH_TO_SOCKET" in qemu 2.6.0 (qemu 2.5.1 
works fine).
  Occasionally, a part of the output of qemu disappears in the bug.

  It looks like following commit is the cause:

  char: ensure all clients are in non-blocking mode (Author: Daniel P. Berrange 
<address@hidden>)
  
http://git.qemu.org/?p=qemu.git;a=commitdiff;h=64c800f808748522727847b9cdc73412f22dffb9

  In this commit, UNIX socket is set to non-blocking mode, but 
qemu_chr_fe_write function doesn't handle EAGAIN.
  You should fix code like that:
