[Qemu-devel] [PATCH 0/4] Convert remaining legacy chardevs to parse/kind

[Peter Maydell <peter.maydell@linaro.org>]

This patchset converts the two remaining legacy chardevs
('socket' and 'udp') to use the new-style parse/kind
mechanisms, and removes all the no-longer-required
legacy machinery.

Patch 1 was posted to the list back in June
(https://patches.linaro.org/32298/). I've fixed the obvious
bug picked up in code review, and as far as I can tell from
the thread we decided that the blocking/non-blocking
difference between QAPI and legacy wasn't a problem.

Patch 2 fixes a hole in the functionality of QAPI-described
UDP chardevs, to avoid regressing the commandline functionality
when we convert the UDP backend in patch 3.

Patch 4 may be easier to review as an ignore-whitespaces
diff (the de-indentation makes the diff a bit awkward).

Peter Maydell (4):
  qemu-char: Convert socket char backend to parse/kind
  util/qemu-sockets.c: Support specifying IPv4 or IPv6 in socket_dgram()
  qemu-char: Convert udp char backend to parse/kind
  qemu-char: Remove register_char_driver() machinery
