Subject: [PATCH 6/7] virtio: console: Don't always create a port 0 if using multiport
Date: Tue, 23 Mar 2010 14:27:59 +0530 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1269334680-1369-7-git-send-email-amit.shah@redhat.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1269334680-1369-6-git-send-email-amit.shah@redhat.com>
If we're using multiport, there's no point in always creating a console
port. Create the console port only if the host doesn't support
multiport.
