When removing a port we don't check if a program was blocked for read. This leads to a crash when SIGTERM is sent to the program after hot-unplugging the port.

This call was disabled as hot-unplugging one virtconsole port led to another virtconsole port freezing. Upon testing it again, this now works, so enable it. In addition, a bug was found in qemu wherein removing a port of one type caused the guest output from another port to stop working. I doubt it was just this bug that caused it (since disabling the hvc_remove() call did allow other ports to

Hello, The first patch here fixes the race seen by Miche. He hasn't yet reported back if this fixes the races he saw, but Joy Pu from Red Hat tested this patch with hot-plugging/unplugging ports in a loop. Before this patch, he saw some freezes as well as sysfs warnings. After applying the patch, all was well. The second patch can be folded into the series fixing S4 for virtio-console. It

Hey Rusty, Here are a few fixes for virtio and virtio_console. The first patch ensures the data elements of vqs are properly initialised at allocation-time so that we don't trigger BUG_ONs. I found this when hot-unplugging ports and there was just one unused buffer. detach_unused_buffers() kept returning pointers that were invalid. I didn't catch this earlier as I had the in_vq filled

When detaching a buffer from a vq, the avail.idx value should be decremented as well. This was noticed by hot-unplugging a virtio console port and then plugging in a new one on the same number (re-using the vqs which were just 'disowned'). qemu reported 'Guest moved used index from 0 to 256' when any IO was attempted on the new port.

Hello, This patchset is still based on Linus' tree but I'll rebase when Rusty sends out the disable multiport patches. This series reworks the ABI to allow port discovery (only) via the control queue. In addition, it adds support for non-blocking write() support, which means no spinning. This works fine with the recent patches that are on qemu-devel. Also included is removal of
