Subject: Why is virtio_console not a tty?
Date: Thu, 12 Jun 2014 12:32:31 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <539A004F.20906@zytor.com> (raw)

I have gotten scattered reports of strange problems caused by the fact
that virtio_console doesn't behave like a normal tty (support termios
and so on.)  This seems to be an odd restriction -- is there any
fundamental reason for this design choice?
