This can just be bin_PROGRAMS - not need to hide it outside of /usr/bin - its fine to let users just run virt-console directly if they wish
Solaris policy is not to introduce plumbing into the user's PATH. virt-console is undocumented and there is no advantage to running it directly. If it were in PATH we would have to document it, and we have no intention of doing that...
I'll volunteer to write a manual page for virt-console, since even existing manpage for 'virsh console' is non-existant.
We need to add an explicit argument to turn on the automatic reconnect of VMs when they reboot. Existing apps calling virsh console rely on its current semantics which are to exit upon domain reboot and we can't break them
We argued about this last time. Looks like we'll have to keep this change private, and let Linux users suffer. Oh well :)
You explicitly break virt-install by doing this. Have virt-console provide the more sensible default auto-reconnect semantics, and make 'virsh console' call it with a flag to turn this off to preserve existing semantics & not break users like virt-install.

The caller of open_tty() is also doing the getattr/makeraw/setattr operation, so this block appears to be redundant - just need to
Nope, that's on STDIN, not the pty slave. Stupid STREAMS semantics.
Oh, can you add a comment to this effect -- easy to miss that distinction when browsing the code :-) Daniel -- |: Red Hat, Engineering, London -o- http://people.redhat.com/berrange/ :| |: http://libvirt.org -o- http://virt-manager.org -o- http://ovirt.org :| |: http://autobuild.org -o- http://search.cpan.org/~danberr/ :| |: GnuPG: 7D3B9505 -o- F3C9 553F A1DA 4AC2 5648 23C1 B3DF F742 7D3B 9505 :|
