[Qemu-devel] [PATCH] chardev: Allow for pty path passing.


From: Paulo Neves
Subject: [Qemu-devel] [PATCH] chardev: Allow for pty path passing.
Date: Sat, 29 Dec 2018 11:15:51 +0100

If a user requires a virtual serial device like provided
by the pty char device, the user needs to accept the
returned device name. This makes the program need to
have smarts to parse or communicate with qemu to get the
pty device.
With this patch the program can pass the path where
a symlink to the pty device will be, removing the
need for 2 way communication or smarts.
