Subject: [PATCH] char: Throttle when host connection is down#
Justin M. Forbes d4cdad
Justin M. Forbes d4cdad
When the host-side connection goes down, throttle the virtio-serial bus
Justin M. Forbes d4cdad
and later unthrottle when a connection gets established.  This helps
Justin M. Forbes d4cdad
prevent any lost IO (guest->host) while the host connection was down.

This commit actually helps the bug mentioned above as no writes will now
Justin M. Forbes d4cdad
get lost because of the throttling done here.  With just the patches
Justin M. Forbes d4cdad
sent earlier for that bug, one write will end up getting lost in the
Justin M. Forbes d4cdad
worst case (host d/c, guest write, host connect).
