[Qemu-devel] [PATCH v2 00/21] qemu-char: refactoring of chardev creation

[Paolo Bonzini]

This series rewrites chardev creation to use a new ->create
member of the CharDriver struct, and to always signal errors
via Error*.

The advantage is that backend-specific creation functions need
not be exported anymore for qemu-char.c's usage, and hence do not
need stubs anymore.

Paolo Bonzini (21):
  qemu-char: cleanup qmp_chardev_add
  qemu-char: cleanup HAVE_CHARDEV_*
  qemu-char: add create to register_char_driver
  qemu-char: convert file backend to data-driven creation
  qemu-char: convert serial backend to data-driven creation
  qemu-char: convert parallel backend to data-driven creation
  qemu-char: convert pipe backend to data-driven creation
  qemu-char: convert socket backend to data-driven creation
  qemu-char: convert UDP backend to data-driven creation
  qemu-char: convert pty backend to data-driven creation
  qemu-char: convert null backend to data-driven creation
  qemu-char: convert mux backend to data-driven creation
  qemu-char: convert msmouse backend to data-driven creation
  qemu-char: convert braille backend to data-driven creation
  qemu-char: convert testdev backend to data-driven creation
  qemu-char: convert stdio backend to data-driven creation
  qemu-char: convert console backend to data-driven creation
  qemu-char: convert spice backend to data-driven creation
  qemu-char: convert vc backend to data-driven creation
  qemu-char: convert ringbuf backend to data-driven creation
  qemu-char: cleanup after completed conversion to cd->create
