Due to the way Qemu handle the device, when an error occurs we must consume all pending data inside the callback which reads data from the device. If we don't flush this data, the next time spice-server tries to read from the device (after the guest closes/reopens it), we'll be getting stale data. This can happen because we cannot prevent the guest from writing to the device even after it got in an error state. This needs to be done within this callback, as QEMU returns 0 if you call SpiceCharDeviceInterface::read() outside of it. QEMU invokes this callback through a call to spice_server_char_device_wakeup. On the test now we must test that we receive an error from the device. Previously we checked that last part of the data was not read. Now potentially all data are read, so we need another way to check the device detected the error.

SPICE: Simple Protocol for Independent Computing Environments
=============================================================
SPICE is a remote display system built for virtual environments which
allows you to view a computing 'desktop' environment not only on the
machine where it is running, but from anywhere on the Internet and
from a wide variety of machine architectures.
Installation
------------
The SPICE package uses GNU autotools, so the build install process
follows the standard process documented in the INSTALL file. As a
quick start you can do
./configure --prefix=/usr --sysconfdir=/etc \
--localstatedir=/var --libdir=/usr/lib
make
sudo make install
Or to install into a private user specific location
./configure --prefix=$HOME/spice
make
make install
The following mandatory dependencies are required in order to
build SPICE
Spice protocol >= 0.12.13
Pixman >= 0.17.7
OpenSSL
libjpeg
zlib
The following optional dependencies increase the available
functionality
Cyrus-SASL
libcacard >= 0.1.2 (Smartcard support)
Opus >= 1.0.0 (Opus audio encoding support)
LZ4 (LZ4 compression support)
GStreamer >= 1.0.0
Communication
-------------
To communicate with the development team, or to post patches
there is a technical mailing list:
http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/spice-devel
There is also a mailing list for new release announcements:
http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/spice-announce/
To view known bugs, or report new bugs, in SPICE visit
https://bugs.freedesktop.org/describecomponents.cgi?product=Spice
Bugs found when using an OS distribution's binary packages should
be reported to the OS vendors' own bug tracker first.
The latest SPICE code can be found in GIT at:
https://cgit.freedesktop.org/spice/
