Hi Gerd, I think you mostly worked on this:
How to specify -serial mon:stdio using the new syntax? I just ran into the problem having to define a serial port via -device isa-serial but wanting its terminal multiplexed with a monitor. -chardev mon:stdio is not understood. BTW, there is are thousand ways of shooting yourself into the foot (up to crashing qemu) by accidentally combining old and new-style options. I think we should catch and forbid any mixture instead of generating error messages like this: qemu-system-x86_64 -mon monitor -chardev stdio,id=monitor -monitor vc tried to create id "monitor" twice for "chardev" parse error: vc Jan -- Siemens AG, Corporate Technology, CT T DE IT 1 Corporate Competence Center Embedded Linux
