static void tcp_chr_connect(void *opaque) {
+ chr->write_blocked = false; s->connected = 1; qemu_set_fd_handler2(s->fd, tcp_chr_read_poll, - tcp_chr_read, NULL, chr); + tcp_chr_read, tcp_chr_write_unblocked, chr);
This is wrong. You want register tcp_chr_write_unblocked only for the chr->write_blocked == true (i.e. output buffers are full) case. Otherwise qemu will burn cpu calling tcp_chr_write_unblocked.
Yes, you'll have to call qemu_set_fd_handler2 each time write_blocked changes state.
Also implementing the whole logic at the individual chardev drivers level feels somewhat wrong as it will identical for most (all?) unix chardev drivers.
