Right; there was some discussion about this. A few alternatives were
suggested like

- udev scripts to create symlinks from ports to function, like:

/dev/vcon3 -> /dev/virtio-console/clipboard

- Some fqdn-like hierarchy, like

/dev/virtio-console/com/redhat/clipboard

which again can be created by udev scripts

Agreed. I'd prefer udev scripts doing it vs doing it in the code as it
keeps everything simple and the policy isn't laid out in the kernel
module. Is that fine?

A sysfs attribute can even be exposed with a char device.

I didn't want to venture more into tty after the hvc thing and the
unexpected bugs that crept up (memory corruption, which is now fixed in
linux-next). I'd rather just keep it limited to the subsystems I know.

Hey Greg,

Can you tell me how this could work out -- each console port could have
a "role" string associated with it (obtainable from the invoking qemu
process in case of qemu/kvm). Something that I have in mind currently
is:

$ qemu-kvm ... -virtioconsole role=org/qemu/clipboard

and then the guest kernel sees the string, and puts the
"org/qemu/clipboard" in some file in sysfs. Guest userspace should then
be able to open and read/write to

/dev/virtio_console/org/qemu/clipboard

I guess that's an acceptable scheme to all.

I also don't know how this would work -- which sysfs attributes to
export and how would udev pick that up and create the device at the
specified location.

Any pointers appreciated.

Thanks,
Amit

OK; but that's kind of roundabout isn't it? An application, instead of
watching for the console port it's interested in, has to instead monitor
all the ports.

So in effect there has to be one app monitoring for new ports and then
that app exec'ing the corresponding app meant for that port.

It's a char device as of now and I've added a 'name' attribute to each
device that can be found in

/sys/class/virtio-console/vconNN/name

Gerd's suggested udev script can then create a symlink from, eg.,

/dev/vconNN -> /dev/virtio/console/org/qemu/clipboard

I've not ripped out the code that allocates the port numbers in
userspace and also the code where the ports can occur in any range
between 0..max_nr_ports. It will result in some simplification.

So here's the code, just an rfc.

Alan, I'm not sure how many ports at a time people would want to use so
allocating one major device for this seems OK?
