[Qemu-stable] [PATCH 3/3] serial: do not trigger THR interrupt after wri


From: Paolo Bonzini
Subject: [Qemu-stable] [PATCH 3/3] serial: do not trigger THR interrupt after writing to IER
Date: Thu, 11 Dec 2014 19:18:51 +0100

This is responsible for failure of migration from 2.2 to 2.1, because
thr_ipending is always one in practice.  Calling serial_update_irq is
the right thing to do indeed, because writing to IER could cause an
interrupt to appear.  However, there is no reason to set thr_ipending
again.

This was already reported in 2010.  See this quote from
https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/qemu-devel/2010-03/msg01914.html:

Bochs does not check LSR_THRE in IER, and the log message in r1049 doesn't
explain why the change was made in the first place.

This does not change the migration format, so 2.2.0 -> 2.1 will remain
broken but we can fix 2.2.1 -> 2.1 without breaking 2.2.1 <-> 2.2.0.
