[Qemu-devel] [PATCH v3] disallow -daemonize usage of stdio (curses display, -nographic, -serial stdio etc) |

Curses display requires stdin/out to stay on the terminal,
so -daemonize makes no sense in this case. Instead of
leaving display uninitialized like is done since 995ee2bf469de6bb,
explicitly detect this case earlier and error out.
-nographic can actually be used with -daemonize, by redirecting
everything to a null device, but the problem is that according
to documentation and historical behavour, -nographic redirects
guest ports to stdin/out, which, again, makes no sense in case
of -daemonize. Since -nographic is a legacy option, don't bother
fixing this case (to allow -nographic and -daemonize by redirecting
guest ports to null instead of stdin/out in this case), but disallow
it completely instead, to stop garbling host terminal.
If no display display needed and user wants to use -nographic,
the right way to go is to use
-serial null -parallel null -monitor none -display none -vga none
instead of -nographic.
Also prevent the same issue -- it was possible to get garbled
host tty after
-nographic -daemonize
and it is still possible to have it by using
-serial stdio -daemonize
Fix this by disallowing opening stdio chardev when -daemonize
is specified.
