From 7b79a59b28539a05458bec652781d42d20adc2f9 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Amit Shah Date: Thu, 21 Jan 2010 18:45:04 +0530 Subject: [PATCH] rules: Add symlink rule for virtio ports virtio ports spawned by the virtio_console.c driver can have 'names' assigned to them by hosts. The ports are distinguishable using these names. Make a rule to create a symlink to the chardev associated for a port with a name. The symlink created is: /dev/virtio-ports/org.libvirt.console0 -> /dev/vport0p0 if the first port for the first device was given a name of 'org.libvirt.console0'.
