Re: [libvirt] Rudimentary (basic) s390x architecture functions for libvirt
A few more details for s390x: why you can't set param '-S' and need
'-chardev vc,id=cons -device virtio-serial-s390 -device
virtconsole,chardev=cons' on s390x:
1) qemu-system-s390x -M s390-virtio -vnc :0 -enable-kvm -smp 1 -m 1024
-k de -kernel /boot/image-2.6.34-tue01 -initrd
/boot/initrd-2.6.34-tue01_GUEST -drive file=/data/sle11.img -append
"root=/dev/vda1 rw"
=> screenshot 1
2) qemu-system-s390x -S -M s390-virtio -vnc :0 -enable-kvm -smp 1 -m
1024 -k de -kernel /boot/image-2.6.34-tue01 -initrd
/boot/initrd-2.6.34-tue01_GUEST -drive file=/data/sle11.img -append
"root=/dev/vda1 rw"
=> screenshot 2
3) qemu-system-s390x -M s390-virtio -vnc :0 -enable-kvm -smp 1 -m 1024
-k de -kernel /boot/image-2.6.34-tue01 -initrd
/boot/initrd-2.6.34-tue01_GUEST -drive file=/data/sle11.img -append
"root=/dev/vda1 rw" -chardev vc,id=cons -device virtio-serial-s390
-device virtconsole,chardev=cons
=> RUN
4) qemu-system-s390x -S -M s390-virtio -vnc :0 -enable-kvm -smp 1 -m
1024 -k de -kernel /boot/image-2.6.34-tue01 -initrd
/boot/initrd-2.6.34-tue01_GUEST -drive file=/data/sle11.img -append
"root=/dev/vda1 rw" -chardev vc,id=cons -device virtio-serial-s390
-device virtconsole,chardev=cons
=> screenshot 4

Interestingly, I'm guessing that's the QEMU "monitor console".
Apparently it's a key feature of QEMU, but it's not something I've personally
had
anything to do with (yet). :)
Just mentioning, in case it's a useful thought. The guys on the mailing list
have a lot deeper knowledge about this stuff that me. ;)
Regards and best wishes,
