I want to redirect the guest's COM1 to ttyUSB0 which will have a real device connected to it. How is this done with QEMU? I could use -serial stdio but how do I get it connected to the usb port? I'm guessing netcat/socat but I've never used that utility. Anyone have a recipe that works? I'm pretty sure that I don't need flow control signals passed through for the serial protocol in use (though if anyone has a solution that handles flow control too, I'd like to hear about it). Thanks much, -- John.
