[Qemu-devel] [PATCH] virtio-9p: Allow O_NOCTTY flag in open().

[Sripathi Kodi]

Currently virtio-9p server doesn't allow O_NOCTTY flag in open().
However, gcc passes this flag while opening files. As a result it
is now impossible to compile any C code on the 9P mount!

I don't see any reason for dis-allowing O_NOCTTY flag in QEMU 9P server.
AFAIK QEMU starts off with a controlling terminal, so calling open with
O_NOCTTY flag is not going to make any difference to QEMU.

The following patch makes 9P server allow O_NOCTTY flag in open().
