It should be VIRTIO_SERIAL_ADD.
What about other events that VIRTIO_SERIAL generates?
We don't address this problem currently, maybe an integration with qdev
will do, but I have to think more about it.
So should I just keep it as VIRTIO_SERIAL for now? With new events also
riding on this one?
I don't like this because with the current events code this will lead
to confusion, as you're using a single event to notify different things.
My suggestion for the immediate term is to do what we have been doing so
far, ie. call it VIRTIO_SERIAL_ADD. Worst case here is: we add a new way
to group events which requires a new VIRTIO_SERIAL event, in this case we
could emit both, the new VIRTIO_SERIAL and the old VIRTIO_SERIAL_ADD. The
latter would be deprecated too.
Or, if you can wait I can _try_ to solve this problem next week, although
I have no idea how hard this is going to be.
Any comments, Anthony?
