[Qemu-devel] Is there a way to bind -redir to a specific host interface?

[Rob Landley]

I want to -redir a port from 127.0.0.1 on the host into qemu without also 
binding to that port on the host's the external interface.  Is there a way to 
specify this?

I checked qemu --help but I can't figure out the syntax for specifying which 
host address to bind to, and wandering through the source code I can't see 
where this information is provided to slirp/socket.c:solisten() either...

Also when looking at the code, at slirp_redir()'s arguments, I cannot
find such a feature. But I'm about to refactor this interfaces and will
keep your requirement in mind. It makes some sense to add this.
