Hi,

I add the device in the .xml conf file using this way :

<channel type='unix'>

      <source mode='bind' path='//var/lib/libvirt/qemu/omnivision_1.agent'/>

      <target type='virtio' name='omnivision_1.agent' state='disconnected'/>

      <alias name='channel1'/>

      <address type='virtio-serial' controller='0' bus='0' port='2'/>

    </channel>

After the guest has been rebooted, I see that the diver  VirtIO-Serial Driver is  now installed .

So far so good ….

Then,  I tried to have a look within the registry but no additional key  here :

HKLM\HARDWARE\DEVICEMAP\SERIALCOMM

Is it the right way to proceed ?

Or did I miss something ?

Thanks for help.

Regards,

J.P.

Hi,

Within following page :

http://www.linux-kvm.org/page/Virtio-serial_API

it’s mentioned a link to “GetDevidePath” .

Unfortunately link seems to be  broken.

Is there another way  to get infos on how to enumerate ports ( on Windows guest) in order  to retrieve a channel device newly  created on the guest by adding it on the .xml configuration file ?

Thanks.
