Hi,
I'm trying to use unix-type channel to send/receive datas between host and guest .
Here are the steps I follow :
1) Adding these lines to expose a channel unix type to my guest
<channel type='unix'>
<source mode='bind'
path='/var/lib/libvirt/qemu/omnivision_1.agent'/>
<target type='virtio' name='org.qemu.guest_agent.0'/>
<alias name='channel0'/>
<address type='virtio-serial' controller='0' bus='0'
port='2'/>
</channel>
This won't fly. A channel with that name is special. It's guest agent
socket that libvirt automatically connects to once domain is starting
up. You need to provide a different name and everything should just work.
