2010-11-17qemu-char: Introduce Memory driverLuiz Capitulino1-0/+7
This driver handles in-memory chardev operations. That's, all writes to this driver are stored in an internal buffer and it doesn't talk to the external world in any way. Right now it's very simple: it supports only writes. But it can be easily extended to support more operations. This is going to be used by the monitor's "HMP passthrough via QMP" feature, which needs to run monitor handlers without a backing device. Signed-off-by: Luiz Capitulino <lcapitulino@redhat.com>

2010-08-10RESEND: Inter-VM shared memory PCI deviceCam Macdonell1-0/+3
resend for bug fix related to removal of irqfd Support an inter-vm shared memory device that maps a shared-memory object as a PCI device in the guest. This patch also supports interrupts between guest by communicating over a unix domain socket. This patch applies to the qemu-kvm repository. -device ivshmem,size=<size in format accepted by -m>[,shm=<shm name>] Interrupts are supported between multiple VMs by using a shared memory server by using a chardev socket. -device ivshmem,size=<size in format accepted by -m>[,shm=<shm name>] [,chardev=<id>][,msi=on][,ioeventfd=on][,vectors=n][,role=peer|master] -chardev socket,path=<path>,id=<id> The shared memory server, sample programs and init scripts are in a git repo here: www.gitorious.org/nahanni Signed-off-by: Cam Macdonell <cam@cs.ualberta.ca> Signed-off-by: Anthony Liguori <aliguori@us.ibm.com>
2010-04-09Always notify consumers of char devices if they're openAlexander Graf1-0/+1
When using virtio-console on s390, the input doesn't work. The root of the problem is rather simple. What happens is the following: 1) create character device for stdio 2) char device is done creating, sends OPENED event 3) virtio-console adds handlers 4) no event comes because the char device is open already 5) virtio-console doesn't accept input because it didn't receive an OPENED event To make that sure virtio-console gets notified that the character device is open even when it's been open from the beginning, this patch introduces a variable that keeps track of the opened state. If the device is open when the event handlers get installed, we just notify the handler. This fixes input with virtio-console on s390.

2009-11-17char: Remove special init_reset handlingAmit Shah1-1/+0
The initial_reset sent to chardevs doesn't do much other than setting a bool to true. Char devices are interested in the open event and that gets sent whenever the device is opened.

2009-09-12Fix sys-queue.h conflict for goodBlue Swirl1-2/+2
Problem: Our file sys-queue.h is a copy of the BSD file, but there are some additions and it's not entirely compatible. Because of that, there have been conflicts with system headers on BSD systems. Some hacks have been introduced in the commits 15cc9235840a22c289edbe064a9b3c19c5f49896, f40d753718c72693c5f520f0d9899f6e50395e94, 96555a96d724016e13190b28cffa3bc929ac60dc and 3990d09adf4463eca200ad964cc55643c33feb50 but the fixes were fragile. Solution: Avoid the conflict entirely by renaming the functions and the file. Revert the previous hacks. Signed-off-by: Blue Swirl <blauwirbel@gmail.com>

2009-09-11Allow -serial chardev:<name>Gerd Hoffmann1-0/+1
Lets put -chardev into use now. With this patch applied chardev:name is accepted as chardev specification everywhere, i.e. now you can: -chardev stdio,id=ttyS0 -serial chardev:ttyS0 which does the same as '-serial stdio". Muxing can be done this way: -chardev stdio,id=mux,mux=on -serial chardev:mux -monitor chardev:mux You can mux more than two streams.

2009-09-11switch chardev to QemuOpts: infrastructure, null deviceGerd Hoffmann1-0/+4
start switching chardevs to QemuOpts. This patch adds the infrastructure and converts the null device. The patch brings two new functions: qemu_chr_open_opts() same as qemu_chr_open(), but uses QemuOpts instead of a option char string. qemu_chr_parse_compat() accepts a traditional chardev option string, returns the corresponding QemuOpts instance, to handle backward compatibility. The patch also adds a new -chardev switch which can be used to create named+unconnected chardevs, like this: -chardev null,id=test This uses the new qemu_chr_open_opts. Thus with this patch alone only the null device works. The other devices will follow ... Signed-off-by: Gerd Hoffmann <kraxel@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Anthony Liguori <aliguori@us.ibm.com>

2009-03-05monitor: Improve mux'ed console experience (Jan Kiszka)aliguori1-3/+5
Up to now, you never really knew if you already switched the console after pressing CTRL-A C or if you mistyped it again. This patch clarifies the situation by providing a prompt in a new line and injecting a linebreak when switching away again. For this purpose, the two events CHR_EVENT_MUX_IN and CHR_EVENT_MUX_OUT are introduced and distributed on focus switches.

2009-03-05monitor: Rework API (Jan Kiszka)aliguori1-1/+3
Refactor the monitor API and prepare it for decoupled terminals: term_print functions are renamed to monitor_* and all monitor services gain a new parameter (mon) that will once refer to the monitor instance the output is supposed to appear on. However, the argument remains unused for now. All monitor command callbacks are also extended by a mon parameter so that command handlers are able to pass an appropriate reference to monitor output services. For the case that monitor outputs so far happen without clearly identifiable context, the global variable cur_mon is introduced that shall once provide a pointer either to the current active monitor (while processing commands) or to the default one. On the mid or long term, those use case will be obsoleted so that this variable can be removed again. Due to the broad usage of the monitor interface, this patch mostly deals with converting users of the monitor API. A few of them are already extended to pass 'mon' from the command handler further down to internal functions that invoke monitor_printf. At this chance, monitor-related prototypes are moved from console.h to a new monitor.h. The same is done for the readline API.

2009-03-05char: Fix initial reset (Jan Kiszka)aliguori1-0/+1
Recent changes to the graphical console initialization broke the initial CHR_EVENT_RESET distribution. The reset BHs generated on char device initialization are now already consumed during machine init (ide init ... -> qemu_aio_wait -> qemu_bh_poll). Therefore, this patch moves the initial qemu_chr_reset calls into a separate funtion which is called after machine init.

2008-10-31Implement "info chardev" command. (Gerd Hoffmann)aliguori1-1/+6
This patch makes qemu keep track of the character devices in use and implements a "info chardev" monitor command to print a list. qemu_chr_open() sticks the devices into a linked list now. It got a new argument (label), so there is a name for each device. It also assigns a filename to each character device. By default it just copyes the filename passed in. Individual drivers can fill in something else though. qemu_chr_open_pty() sets the filename to name of the pseudo tty allocated. Output looks like this: (qemu) info chardev monitor: filename=unix:/tmp/run.sh-26827/monitor,server,nowait serial0: filename=unix:/tmp/run.sh-26827/console,server serial1: filename=pty:/dev/pts/5 parallel0: filename=vc:640x480 Signed-off-by: Gerd Hoffmann <kraxel@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Anthony Liguori <aliguori@us.ibm.com> git-svn-id: svn://svn.savannah.nongnu.org/qemu/trunk@5575 c046a42c-6fe2-441c-8c8c-71466251a162

2008-08-22Parallel Port Direction Fixaurel321-0/+1
The direction bit in the control register should not be directly set using PPWCONTROL. The kernel gives the following debug message. parport0 (ppdev0): use data_reverse for this! More over setting the data pins to forward mode does not work, perhaps a bug in the Linux PP driver. The right way to do this is to use PPDATADIR to set the direction. The patch checks if the user is toggling the direction bit, and invokes PPDATADIR to do the job.
