Berrange" According to the RFB protocol, a client sends one or more framebuffer update requests to the server. The server can reply with a single framebuffer update response, that covers all previously received requests. Once the client has read this update from the server, it may send further framebuffer update requests to monitor future changes. The client is free to delay sending the framebuffer update request if it needs to throttle the amount of data it is reading from the server. The QEMU VNC server, however, has never correctly handled the framebuffer update requests. Once QEMU has received an update request, it will continue to send client updates forever, even if the client hasn't asked for further updates. This prevents the client from throttling back data it gets from the server. This change fixes the flawed logic such that after a set of updates are sent out, QEMU waits for a further update request before sending more data. Signed-off-by: Daniel P.
