[PATCH] virtio_serial: A char device for simple guest <-> host communication

Amit Shah amit.shah at redhat.com
Wed Aug 5 02:52:01 PDT 2009


We expose multiple char devices ("ports") for simple communication
between the host userspace and guest.

Sample offline usages can be: poking around in a guest to find out
the file systems used, applications installed, etc. Online usages
can be sharing of clipboard data between the guest and the host,
sending information about logged-in users to the host, locking the
screen or session when a vnc session is closed, and so on.

The interface presented to guest userspace is of a simple char
device, so it can be used like this:

    fd = open("/dev/vmch0", O_RDWR);
    ret = read(fd, buf, 100);
    ret = write(fd, string, strlen(string));

Each port is to be assigned a unique function, for example, the first
4 ports may be reserved for libvirt usage, the next 4 for generic
streaming data and so on. This port-function mapping isn't finalised
yet.

For requirements, use-cases and some history see
