Re: [libvirt] [PATCH 3/7] Introduce a virDomainOpenConsole API

To enable virsh console (or equivalent) to be used remotely it is neccessary to provide remote access to the /dev/pts/XXX

psuedo-TTY associated with the console/serial/parallel device

in the guest. The virStream API provide a bi-directional I/O stream capability that can be used for this purpose. This patch thus introduces a virDomainOpenConsole API that uses the stream APIs. * src/libvirt.c, src/libvirt_public.syms, include/libvirt/libvirt.h.in, src/driver.h: Define the new virDomainOpenConsole API * src/esx/esx_driver.c, src/lxc/lxc_driver.c, src/opennebula/one_driver.c, src/openvz/openvz_driver.c, src/phyp/phyp_driver.c, src/qemu/qemu_driver.c, src/remote/remote_driver.c, src/test/test_driver.c, src/uml/uml_driver.c, src/vbox/vbox_tmpl.c, src/xen/xen_driver.c, src/xenapi/xenapi_driver.c: Stub API entry point
