frontends should avoid accessing CharDriver struct where possible Signed-off-by: Anton Nefedov <anton.nefedov@virtuozzo.com> Reviewed-by: Vladimir Sementsov-Ogievskiy <vsementsov@virtuozzo.com> Reviewed-by: Marc-André Lureau <marcandre.lureau@redhat.com> Message-Id: <1499342940-56739-6-git-send-email-anton.nefedov@virtuozzo.com> Signed-off-by: Paolo Bonzini <pbonzini@redhat.com>
2017-07-14char: forbid direct chardevice access for hotswap devicesAnton Nefedov1-0/+7
qemu_chr_fe_get_driver() is unsafe, frontends with hotswap support should not access CharDriver ptr directly as CharDriver might change.

2017-07-14char: add backend hotswap handlerAnton Nefedov1-1/+3
Frontends should have an interface to setup the handler of a backend change. The interface will be used in the next commits Signed-off-by: Anton Nefedov <anton.nefedov@virtuozzo.com> Reviewed-by: Vladimir Sementsov-Ogievskiy <vsementsov@virtuozzo.com> Reviewed-by: Marc-André Lureau <marcandre.lureau@redhat.com> Message-Id: <1499342940-56739-3-git-send-email-anton.nefedov@virtuozzo.com> Signed-off-by: Paolo Bonzini <pbonzini@redhat.com>
2017-06-02char: make chr_fe_deinit() optionaly delete backendMarc-André Lureau1-1/+4
This simplifies removing a backend for a frontend user (no need to retrieve the associated driver and separate delete call etc). NB: many frontends have questionable handling of ending a chardev. They should probably delete the backend to prevent broken reusage. Signed-off-by: Marc-André Lureau <marcandre.lureau@redhat.com> Reviewed-by: Philippe Mathieu-Daudé <f4bug@amsat.org>
2017-06-02char: move CharBackend handling in char-fe unitMarc-André Lureau1-0/+358
Move all the frontend struct and methods to a seperate unit. This avoids accidentally mixing backend and frontend calls, and helps with readabilty. Make qemu_chr_replay() a macro shared by both char and char-fe. Export qemu_chr_write(), and use a macro for qemu_chr_write_all() (nb: yes, CharBackend is for char frontend :) Signed-off-by: Marc-André Lureau <marcandre.lureau@redhat.com> Reviewed-by: Philippe Mathieu-Daudé <f4bug@amsat.org>
