Public bug reported: I created a named pipe serial hardware and supplied '/tmp/debug' which I created using mkfifo
This is the snippet from ps -aux -chardev pipe,id=charserial0,path=/tmp/debug -device isa-serial,chardev=charserial0,id=serial0 failure@ubuntu1:~$ ls -al /tmp/debug* prwxrwxrwx 1 jgp jgp 0 2012-03-03 18:40 /tmp/debug prwxrwxrwx 1 jgp jgp 0 2012-03-03 18:40 /tmp/debug.in However inside the Windows 7 guest (even after a restart) nothing is recognized. Even after going through the add legacy hardware motions it's still not picked up. ** Affects: qemu Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Tags: kvm serial windows -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of qemu- devel-ml, which is subscribed to QEMU. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/946043 Title: Serial Named Pipe Unrecognized Windows 7 Status in QEMU: New Bug description: I created a named pipe serial hardware and supplied '/tmp/debug' which I created using mkfifo This is the snippet from ps -aux -chardev pipe,id=charserial0,path=/tmp/debug -device isa-serial,chardev=charserial0,id=serial0 failure@ubuntu1:~$ ls -al /tmp/debug* prwxrwxrwx 1 jgp jgp 0 2012-03-03 18:40 /tmp/debug prwxrwxrwx 1 jgp jgp 0 2012-03-03 18:40 /tmp/debug.in However inside the Windows 7 guest (even after a restart) nothing is recognized.
