Hi Wangpan,
Thanks for Information and suggestions.
We want to have generic virtio-serial interface for Libvirt  and applications can use this irrespective of Qemu Guest Agent in VM.
As suggested, Daniel can throw some light on this and help us.
Regards,
Balaji.P

Hi all,

I'm the owner of this bp https://blueprints.launchpad.net/nova/+spec/qemu-guest-agent-support
and Daniel Berrange gave me lots of help about implementing this bp, and the original idea of mine is the same as yours.
So I think the opinion of Daniel will be very useful.

Hi Haomai,

Thanks for your interest on this.

The code check-ins done against the below bp are more specific to Qemu Guest Agent.

 https://blueprints.launchpad.net/nova/+spec/qemu-guest-agent-support


Our requirement is to enable Virtio-Serial Interface to the applications running in VM.

Do you have the same requirement?

We will share the draft BP on this.


Any comments on this approach will be helpful.

Regards,
Balaji.P

Great! We have common interest and I hope we can promote it for IceHouse.

BTW, do you have a initial plan or description about it.

And I think this bp may invoke. https://blueprints.launchpad.net/nova/+spec/qemu-guest-agent-support
