This series fixes anoying console corruption if two clients try to

at same time to the console. The current state of this is, that two/more
of threads compete for the data from the PTY. This causes that each of the
consoles get scrambled and unusable.
These patches add mutual exclusion for opening consoles with two different
approaches and a option to terminate existing console streams.
A sample implementation is done using qemu driver, but i'll add more of them
if this will be OK. (They're basicaly the same as in qemu).
For convinience, to review these patches:
git checkout -b console_corruption 8d16201fe0e63afb5416a8eb7c6478f582ccccc0
git pull git://aeon.pipo.sk/libvirt.git console_dup
What is the status of these patches ? Do you have any v3 pending ?
In the libvirt-sandbox project, we're finding that we need this
console protection you've done, to stop virt-manager intefering
with the sandboxes
