There's no special code required for that - any -chardev backend can
have logfile=/some/path added to it.

I see something like

  console_drainer = datadrainer.LineLogger(self.vm.console_socket.fileno(),
 
logger=self.log.getChild('console'))
console_drainer.start()

in LinuxTest. Maybe I would be able to use something similar.

yeah we want to collect all the console logs while the VM is running until it 
self terminates. Maybe you can add a flag for this behavior to not early 
terminate the socket. I think we need to add mathods to keep reading the socket 
and write to a file until the socket is closed. Maybe QemuMachine needs to be 
enhanced.

Yep! I think you need a few more changes to do what you wanted. IIRC, you
also want to be able to drain the console log while waiting for the vm to
terminate of its own accord, which I don't support yet.

(If you use console socket's self draining mode, it should be possible to
forego the early termination of the console socket and allow this behavior.
Maybe I can work that in now...)

Anything else I'm forgetting ...?

Thanks for doing this. I recall we spoke about this late last year in the 
context of fixing my bios-bits avocado test and adding a console output there.

I am not 100% sure but should we save the new sock_fd here? Like
self._cons_sock_pair[1] = sock_fd ;

Then next time console_socket() is invoked, the correct fd will be duped.
