[Spice-devel] generic channel between guest os and client problem

[Marc-André Lureau]

Hi,

I am not sure that's what you are looking for, but since qemu 1.5, and spice-gtk 0.15 you can have arbitrary communication between client and qemu, by using a Spice "port". This is not used atm, so it's not very well tested. Only the spicy client recognize "org.spice.spicy", for testing purposes. For example, connect spicy to this qemu instance will allow you to interact with the monitor from the console:

-vga qxl -spice port=5900,disable-ticketing -chardev spiceport,name=org.spice.spicy,id=portmonitor -monitor chardev:portmonitor

Hope that helps,
