Description Amit Shah 2010-05-06 05:14:36 UTC
Description of problem:
With multiport support enabled for the virtio-console code, each console can have its size resized individually. Move away from the config space for console size updates and use control messages instead.

Comment 1 RHEL Program Management 2010-05-06 06:00:27 UTC
This request was evaluated by Red Hat Product Management for inclusion in a Red
Hat Enterprise Linux major release.  Product Management has requested further
review of this request by Red Hat Engineering, for potential inclusion in a Red
Hat Enterprise Linux Major release.  This request is not yet committed for
inclusion.

Comment 7 Amit Shah 2010-10-08 07:33:44 UTC
This doesn't result in loss of functionality and neither is the interesting case for us to use multiple 'console' ports.  So closing this bug for now; can be considered later when the patches make their way upstream.
