Yonit Halperin 50e3af6a99 char_device: Introducing shared flow control code for char devices. 
SpiceCharDeviceState manages the (1) write-to-device queue
(2) wakeup and reading from the device (3) client tokens (4)
sending messages from the device to the client/s, considering the
available tokens.
SpiceCharDeviceState can be also stopped and started. When the device
is stopped, no reading or writing is done from/to the device. Messages
addressed from the client to the device are being queued.
Later, an api for stop/start will be added to spice.h and it should
be called from qemu.

This patch does not yet remove the wakeup callback from
SpiceCharDeviceState, but once all the char devices (agent/spicevmc/smartcard)
code will switch to the new implementation, SpiceCharDeviceState
will be moved to the c file and its reference to the wakeup callback will be removed.

   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 dependancies are required in order to
build SPICE

    Spice protocol >= 0.9.0
    Celt           >= 0.5.1.1, < 0.6.0
    Pixman         >= 0.17.7
    OpenSSL
    libjpeg
    zlib
    Cyrus-SASL

The following optional dependancies increase the available
functionality

    GE Gui         >= 0.6.0,  < 0.7.0   (GUI app support)
    OpenGL                              (GUI app support)
    Alsa                                (Linux support)
    XRandR         >= 1.2               (X11 support)
    Xinerama       >= 1.0               (X11 support)
    libcacard      >= 0.1.2             (Smartcard support)
    Slirp                               (Tunnelling support)

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:

   http://cgit.freedesktop.org/spice/
