[Qemu-devel] [PATCH 0/6] vnc: add support for multiple vnc server instances.

[Gerd Hoffmann]

  Hi,

This patch series adds support for multiple vnc server instances to
qemu.  This comes handy in multiseat configurations as you can have
one vnc server for each set then.

Some cleanups along the way (use QemuOpts).  Also added support for
limiting the number of parallel vnc connections.

To be done: monitor support.  I think the best way to handle this is to
introduce a new command to query vnc server state, which returns a list
of vnc servers but otherwise works like "query-vnc".  Alternative
approach would be to add a optional 'id=' parameter to query-vnc, but
then you'll need a new list-vnc command.

Opinions on this?

set_password and expire_password commands should be easy, they can be
extended with an optional 'id=' parameter.

Gerd Hoffmann (6):
  vnc: remove vnc_display global
  vnc: remove unused DisplayState parameter, add id instead.
  vnc: switch to QemuOpts, allow multiple servers
  vnc: allow binding servers to qemu consoles
  vnc: update docs/multiseat.txt
  vnc: track & limit connections
