I came across a bug that the command line generated for passthrough of the host parallel port /dev/parport0 by libvirt for QEMU is incorrect. It currently produces: -chardev tty,id=charparallel0,path=/dev/parport0 -device isa-parallel,chardev=charparallel0,id=parallel0 The first parameter is "tty". It sould be "parport". If I launch qemu with -chardev parport,... it works as expected. I have already filled a bug report ( https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=823879 ), the topic was already on the list some months ago: https://www.redhat.com/archives/libvirt-users/2011-September/msg00095.html Signed-off-by: Eric Blake <eblake@redhat.com>
LibVirt : simple API for virtualization
Libvirt is a C toolkit to interact with the virtualization capabilities
of recent versions of Linux (and other OSes). It is free software
available under the GNU Lesser General Public License. Virtualization of
the Linux Operating System means the ability to run multiple instances of
Operating Systems concurrently on a single hardware system where the basic
resources are driven by a Linux instance. The library aim at providing
long term stable C API initially for the Xen paravirtualization but
should be able to integrate other virtualization mechanisms if needed.
