Hi,
On balance I felt <console> was/is the winner. Essentially every impl of <console> can be said to be a general purpose data channel for passing arbitrary bytes. We choose to explicitly distinguish <console> from <serial> based on the intended use case of the thing.
This interpretation directly contradicts our documentation, specifically
https://libvirt.org/formatdomain.html#console
The console element is used to represent interactive serial consoles.
Yep. Something where it make sense to run a getty on. Which surely isn't the case for isa-debugcon ... take care, Gerd
