-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi folks,
I'm writing a virtio-rng host-side driver for qemu-kvm, and I've got something up and running that works, and will pass data gathered from a char device on the host through to the virtio-rng driver on a guest copy of linux. Ultimately it'll get its entropy from egd as well, but for now I'd like to solve the issue in hw/qdev.c. in qdev_init_chardev() the return value is picked based upon the name of the device. For now, I've added a third 'if clause' to match for my driver and pass through the CharDriverState * fron vl.c for my rng driver, however I'd like to solve this properly. I think a simple name->pointer type matching system would work fine, however I'd like to know if anyone else has sorted this yet, or if I should be doing things differently altogether. also, what does '_hds' stand for? eg. 'virtcon_hds'[] Thanks, - -Ian -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.10 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org/ iQIcBAEBAgAGBQJK+y1LAAoJEFIjE1w7L6YHlI4P/i4QPbsIASmCLtI9RiEtF7LF NguXv+HCNme8MK6bQpHKLYIJ1q/DSImeeJPjqe/PF1unOBP0d4GmsC+qnLGj4CZn LCRiqf+ZgVPI/fX8TQ8TOzN9o31EOnWmxOKuj+zDDhbRxG/mY2OzOQCLEBkQ26GL Pru981FBVJiEPP2JnWnR6Hn+IZaazcyo+ychk0UhQYasmv8XTC75DiiProhyXFJk TXa8UN+lWd1U1a0mmmg1gxttQrYZiC5i4+k609HY8v3poZ0kjmlH0hIUHt+3FHE8 pA1WL/B26EhNem3ZazGGJ8sNdGg60VTjEBSHyGveCdUtiQU2TWWESBOesQoALkoE 8mONeytgsv7GZ9sh0a1RTInvSsA2TyV/hzQphOtTl6SNEETlGEsFNJpLk+6GeO89 g5A3vdgsOL18ymWxDTf/Ts14mK4+QMa9x4T2Cpttip1LuOwDoV/PCKfpg1q9TT+d C04TFR7qgl6eAsErHhHlFYmWNcMHn00t9jOEBUTMjIi5xKwsCr+ktWxF0yxLQdlu co7gLZd4ck4N8GMltPjIXGMnqWLsemf4b7Gpg8wtIjmK5f7l58qVZW0Qsdx9ujJc MLxQwKvk5OdE+uGMBUDynAGW926Fu/QhdrAhWSbzDFrIjysTY6fzXgNaQa+8HoL9 5fB9UiotqwfYy95HnZV9 =ABHJ -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
