+Subject: [PATCH] char: Add framework for a 'write unblocked' callback
+
+The char layer can let users know that the driver will block on further
+input.  For users interested in not blocking, they can assign a function
+pointer that will be called back when the driver becomes writable.  This
+patch just adds the function pointers to the CharDriverState structure,
+future patches will enable the nonblocking and callback functionality.

+Subject: [PATCH] char: Update send_all() to handle nonblocking chardev write
+ requests
+
+The send_all function is modified to return to the caller in case the
+driver cannot handle any more data.  It returns -EAGAIN or
+WSAEWOULDBLOCK on non-Windows and Windows platforms respectively.  This
+is only done when the caller sets a callback function handler indicating
+it's not interested in blocking till the driver has written out all the
+data.
+
+Currently there's no driver or caller that supports this.  Future
+commits will add such capability.

+Now that the infrastructure is in place to return -EAGAIN to callers,

+Subject: [PATCH] char: Throttle when host connection is down#
+
+When the host-side connection goes down, throttle the virtio-serial bus
+and later unthrottle when a connection gets established.  This helps
+prevent any lost IO (guest->host) while the host connection was down.
+
+Bugzilla: 621484
+
+This commit actually helps the bug mentioned above as no writes will now
+get lost because of the throttling done here.  With just the patches
+sent earlier for that bug, one write will end up getting lost in the
+worst case (host d/c, guest write, host connect).

+Subject: [PATCH] virtio-console: Enable port throttling when chardev is slow
+ to consume data
+
+When a chardev indicates it can't accept more data, we tell the
+virtio-serial code to stop sending us any more data till we tell
+otherwise.  This helps in guests continuing to run normally while the vq
+keeps getting full and eventually the guest stops queueing more data.
+As soon as the chardev indicates it can accept more data, start pushing!

+Subject: [PATCH] spice-qemu-char.c: add throttling
+
+BZ: 672191
+
+upstream: not submitted (explained below)
+
+Adds throttling support to spicevmc chardev. Uses a timer to avoid recursing:
+1. spice-server: reds.c:            read_from_vdi_port
+2. qemu:         spice-qemu-char.c: vmc_read
+3.                                  chr_write_unblocked
+                                (calls virtio_serial_throttle_port(port, false))
+4. qemu:         virtio ...
+5. qemu:         spice-qemu-char.c: spice_chr_write
+6. qemu:         spice-qemu-char.c: wakeup (calls into spice-server)
+7. spice-server: ...
+8. qemu:         spice-qemu-char.c: vmc_read
+
+Instead, in vmc_read if we were throttled and we are just about to return
+all the bytes we will set a timer to be triggered immediately to call
+chr_write_unblocked. Then we return after 2 above, and 3 is called from the
+timer callback. This also means we can later remove some ugly recursion protection
+from spice-server.
+
+The other tricky point in this patch is not returning the leftover chunk twice.
+When we throttle, by definition we have data that spice server didn't consume.
+It is being kept by virtio-serial, and by us. The next vmc_read callback needs
+to not return it, but just do unthrottling. Then virtio will give us the remaining
+chunk as usual in spice_chr_write, and we will pass it to spice server in the
+next vmc_read.
+
+This patch relies on Amit's series to expose throttling to chardev's, which
+was not accepted upstream, and will not be accepted upstream until the mainloop
+is reworked to use glib.

+Subject: [PATCH] spice-qemu-char.c: remove intermediate buffer
+
+BZ: 672191
+upstream: not submitted (explained below)
+
+virtio-serial's buffer is valid when it calls us, and we don't
+access it otherwise: vmc_read is only called in response to wakeup,
+or else we set datalen=0 and throttle. Then vmc_read is called back,
+we return 0 (not accessing the buffer) and set the timer to unthrottle.
+
+Also make datalen int and not ssize_t (to fit spice_chr_write signature).
+
+This relied on the previous patch that introduces throttling, which
+can't go upstream right now as explained in that patch.

+Subject: [PATCH] hw/virtio-serial-bus: replay guest open on destination
+
+This is rewrite of a patch carried in Fedora previously based
+on new code upstream, here is the original message, it still applies:
+(the original fedora patch was commit id
+a9bc20afc1f0604ee81c23b7c67d627e51d2e8d4, this is useful for grepping in
+logs, it isn't in upstream)
+
+When migrating a host with with a spice agent running the mouse becomes
+non operational after the migration. This is rhbz #725965.
+
+The problem is that after migration spice doesn't know the guest agent
+is open.  Spice is just a char dev here. And a chardev cannot query it's
+device, the device has to let the chardev know when it is open. Right
+now after migration the chardev which is recreated is in it's default
+state, which assumes the guest is disconnected.
+
+Char devices carry no information across migration, but the
+virtio-serial does already carry the guest_connected state. This patch
+passes that bit to the chardev.
