SPICE server Windows support

SPICE server was ported from Unix/Linux to Windows.

Most features are present, with some exceptions:

  • Unix sockets;
  • signal handling;
  • CLOEXEC flag (completely different handling on Windows);
  • IPTOS_LOWDELAY flag (Linux specific);
  • TCP_CORK (Linux/*BSD specific).

Some features could be ported but currently are not:

  • statistics exported through mapped files. Disabled by default and mainly used for development;
  • filtering while recording (SPICE_WORKER_RECORD_FILTER environment). Recording is used for debugging or development work;
  • TCP_KEEPIDLE setting. Default is used.

To compile and use with Qemu you can follow the guide at https://wiki.qemu.org/Hosts/W32, just pass --enable-spice during configuration.

To test using a Linux cross compiler you can install Wine and run test with

make LOG_COMPILE=wine check
