[Qemu-devel] [PATCH 0/5] qemu-ga: add isa-serial support to win32

[Luiz Capitulino]

Hi,

This series adds isa-serial support to qemu-ga. This is done by opening
the serial port in "non-blocking" mode and using the GSourceFuncs API
(full details in patch 5/5).

I've tried two other simpler ways of implementing this w/o success:

 1. By more or less doing what we do in qemu-ga POSIX, but opening
    the serial port with g_io_channel_new_file()

 2. By doing exactly what we do in qemu-ga POSIX (using open()
    inclusive), but using g_io_channel_win32_new_fd() instead of
        g_io_channel_unix_new()

Both tries failed with an assertion in g_io_channel_read_chars(), saying
that the channel wasn't readable...

Finally, I've tested this series on Windows 2008 (virtio-serial and isa-serial)
and Windows Vista (isa-serial only).

Luiz Capitulino (5):
  configure: link qemu-ga.exe in default make target
  qemu-ga: win32: add _ov suffix to current GSource functions
  qemu-ga: win32: GAChannel: store GAChannelMethod being used
  qemu-ga: win32: isolate virtio-serial specific code
  qemu-ga: win32: add isa-serial support

 configure           |   2 +-
 qga/channel-win32.c | 170 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++-----------
