A new interface set_client_capabilities (QXLInstance *qin, uint8_t client_present, uint8_t caps[58]); is added to QXLInstance, and spice server is changed to call it whenever a client connects or disconnects. The QXL device in response is expected to update the client capability bits in the ROM of the device and raise the QXL_INTERRUPT_CLIENT interrupt. There is a potential race condition in the case where a client disconnects and a new client with fewer capabilities connects. There may be commands in the ring that the new client can't handle. This case is handled by first changing the capability bits, then processing all commands in the ring, and then start forwarding commands to the new client. As long as the guest obeys the capability bits, the new client will never see anything it doesn't understand. |

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/
