Subject: Two VNC patches
Date: Mon, 8 Dec 2008 13:56:06 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20081208135606.GE19711@arachsys.com> (raw)
[-- Attachment #1: Type: text/plain, Size: 374 bytes --]
I sent this pair of VNC-related patches to the qemu-devel list a couple of
weeks back and I'm not sure whether they've got lost in the cracks or were
in some way not acceptable and need fixing up.
The first one is a straightforward bug-fix, and the second is a trivial
convenience feature in the monitor which I imagine ought to be fairly
uncontroversial?
Cheers,
Chris.

Subject: [PATCH v2] Fix off-by-one bug limiting VNC passwords to 7 chars
Date: Tue, 25 Nov 2008 10:25:02 +0000
Message-ID: <20081125102502.GJ2380@arachsys.com>
Fix off-by-one bug limiting VNC passwords to 7 characters instead of 8
monitor_readline expects buf_size to include the terminating \0, but
do_change_vnc in monitor.c calls it as though it doesn't. The other site
where monitor_readline reads a password (in vl.c) passes the buffer length
correctly.

Subject: [PATCH v2] Accept password as an argument to 'change vnc password'
Date: Tue, 25 Nov 2008 10:26:46 +0000
Message-ID: <20081125102646.GK2380@arachsys.com>
Accept password as an argument to 'change vnc password' monitor command
This allows easier use of the change vnc password monitor command from
management scripts, without having to implement expect(1)-like behaviour.
