Adding Daniel in CC for comments about libvirt behaviour.

This patch could use some tests in test-char.c

Hmm... why is that data timeout necessary?

Easier to have a single return at the end of the function.

Please use G_SOURCE_CONTINUE (or rather REMOVE here?)

It's a HUP handler, please call it that way to avoid confusion.

I don't think we should call tcp_chr_read() unless the frontend is
ready to receive data
