Subject: [PULL 04/32] io/channel: Have read/write functions take void * buffer argument
Date: Mon,  3 Nov 2025 13:36:58 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20251103133727.423041-5-berrange@redhat.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20251103133727.423041-1-berrange@redhat.com>

From: Philippe Mathieu-Daudé <philmd@linaro.org>

I/O channel read/write functions can operate on any area of
memory, regardless of the content their represent. Do not
restrict to array of char, use the void* type, which is also
the type of the underlying iovec::iov_base field.
