Hello,

This series lets interested callers ask for an -EAGAIN return from the
chardev backends (only unix and tcp sockets as of now) to implement
their own flow control.

A new call, qemu_chr_write_nb() is added, that will fallback to
qemu_chr_write() if the backend file isn't non-blocking or if no
callback was supplied.

Support for other backend types is easy to add and will be done in
later patches.

v6:
- Continue write operation on EINTR instead of returning partial
  writes (which was a change from prev. behaviour) (Gerd)

v5:
- Fix bug pointed out by Gerd
- Convert to using a struct for passing on handlers to
  qemu_chr_add_handlers() instead of passing each one
  individually. Simplifies patches. (Inspired by Juan's comment)
- Re-arranged patches


Amit Shah (6):
  virtio-console: Factor out common init between console and generic
    ports
  char: Add a QemuChrHandlers struct to initialise chardev handlers
  char: Let writers know how much data was written in case of errors
  char: Add qemu_chr_write_nb() for nonblocking writes
  char: unix/tcp: Add a non-blocking write handler
  virtio-console: Throttle virtio-serial-bus if we can't consume any
    more guest data
