I'm guessing you're seeing those bugs because you try open/close/etc.
calls on the hvc devices.  That's not how they're supposed to be used.
As I mentioned previously, you should spawn a terminal on hvc and use it
for console IO.

I'll take a look at the rest in a bit.

[KVM-autotest] virtio_console test v3.0

2010-09-15 Thread Lukas Doktor
Cheers,

we are back with new version of virtio_console. This version is more similar to 
upstream C virtio_console test so it will be easier to maintain. Also we moved 
the scripts/console_switch.py to more sensible scripts/virtio_guest.py

the patch with explanation follows.

Best regards,
Lukas and Jiri
