[Qemu-devel] [PATCH v3 0/4] virtio-serial: Trivial fixes, don't copy buffers to host

[Amit Shah]

Hi,

This patch series converts virtio-serial-bus to use the guest buffers
instead of copying over guest data to the host, as suggested by Paul.

In addition, there are some trivial fixes and code re-arrangement to
the virtio-console and virtio-serial code for the upcoming flow
control series.

Please apply.

v3:
 - Move discard logic to a separate function
 - Drop while-loop-rework patch as it's now no longer necessary with
   the new discard logic

v2:
 - drop the erroring out patch till we decide what's to be done
 - remove goto usage.

Amit Shah (4):
  virtio-console: Factor out common init between console and generic
    ports
  virtio-console: Remove unnecessary braces
  virtio-serial-bus: separate out discard logic in a separate function
  virtio-serial: Don't copy over guest buffer to host
