It should be fairly trivial to support i would expect. Though ideally we'd port the netdev socket backend to use QIOChannel too -- = You received this bug notification because you are a member of qemu- devel-ml, which is subscribed to QEMU. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/676934 Title: Ability to use -net socket with unix sockets Status in QEMU: New Bug description: It would be a nice feature (simplifying access control for example) to be able to do something like: qemu -net socket,listen=3Dunix:/tmp/qemunet qemu -net socket,connect=3Dunix:/tmp/qemunet For now one has to use TCP connections even for guests running on the same host, which involves setting up iptables to restrict access.
