This one took me eons to debug, but I've finally found it now, oh well.
The usage of the MIN macro in this line:
last_out = MIN(len, qemu_chr_be_can_write(scd->chr));
Causes qemu_chr_be_can_write to be called *twice*, since the MIN macro
evaluates its arguments twice (bad MIN macro, bad!). And the result of
the call can change between the 2 calls since the guest may have consumed
some data from the virtio ringbuffer between the calls!
When this happens it is possible for qemu_chr_be_can_write to return less
then len in the call made for the comparision, and then to return more then
len in the actual call for the return-value of MIN, after which we will end
up writing len data + some extra garbage, not good.
This patch fixes this by only calling qemu_chr_be_can_write once.

virtio-serial's buffer is valid when it calls us, and we don't
access it otherwise: vmc_read is only called in response to wakeup,
or else we set datalen=0 and throttle. Then vmc_read is called back,
we return 0 (not accessing the buffer) and set the timer to unthrottle.
Also make datalen int and not ssize_t (to fit spice_chr_write signature).

"chardev: add spice support to qapi"
It is impossible to set the debug parameter, so all the dprintf calls
are essentially nops. Since we've not needed the debug parameter in ages this
is not a problem, if it later turns out we do need some more debugging options
we can add more trace-points.

Add a new spice chardev to allow arbitrary communication between the
host and the Spice client via the spice server.
Examples:
This allows the Spice client to have a special port for the qemu
monitor:
... -chardev spiceport,name=org.qemu.monitor,id=monitorport
-mon chardev=monitorport
v2:
- remove support for chardev to chardev linking
- conditionnaly compile with SPICE_SERVER_VERSION

The current code waits until the chardev can read MIN(len, VMC_MAX)
But some chardev may never reach than amount, in fact some of them
will only ever accept write of 1. Fix the min computation and remove
the VMC_MAX constant.

The commit's purpose is laudable:
The only way for chardev drivers to communicate an error was to
return a NULL pointer, which resulted in an error message that
said _that_ something went wrong, but not _why_.
It attempts to achieve it by changing the interface to return 0/-errno
and update qemu_chr_open_opts() to use strerror() to display a more
helpful error message. Unfortunately, it has serious flaws:
1. Backends "socket" and "udp" return bogus error codes, because
qemu_chr_open_socket() and qemu_chr_open_udp() assume that
unix_listen_opts(), unix_connect_opts(), inet_listen_opts(),
inet_connect_opts() and inet_dgram_opts() fail with errno set
appropriately. That assumption is wrong, and the commit turns
unspecific error messages into misleading error messages. For
instance:
$ qemu-system-x86_64 -nodefaults -vnc :0 -chardev socket,id=bar,host=xxx
inet_connect: host and/or port not specified
chardev: opening backend "socket" failed: No such file or directory
ENOENT is what happens to be in my errno when the backend returns
-errno. Let's put ERANGE there just for giggles:
$ qemu-system-x86_64 -nodefaults -vnc :0 -chardev socket,id=bar,host=xxx -drive if=none,iops=99999999999999999999
inet_connect: host and/or port not specified
chardev: opening backend "socket" failed: Numerical result out of range
Worse: when errno happens to be zero, return -errno erroneously
signals success, and qemu_chr_new_from_opts() dies dereferencing
uninitialized chr. I observe this with "-serial unix:".
2. All qemu_chr_open_opts() knows about the error is an errno error
code. That's simply not enough for a decent message. For instance,
when inet_dgram() can't resolve the parameter host, which errno code
should it use? What if it can't resolve parameter localaddr?
Clue: many backends already report errors in their open methods.
Let's revert the flawed commit along with its dependencies, and fix up
the silent error paths instead.

Define a state callback and make that generate chardev open/close events when
called by the spice-server.
Notes:
1) For all but the newest spice-server versions (which have a fix for this)
the code ignores these events for a spicevmc with a subtype of vdagent, this
subtype specific knowledge is undesirable, but unavoidable for now, see:
http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/spice-devel/2011-July/004837.html
2) This code deliberately sends the events immediately rather then from a
bh. This is done this way because:
a) There is no need to do it from a bh; and
b) Doing it from a bh actually causes issues because the spice-server may send
data immediately after the open and when the open runs from a bh, then
qemu_chr_be_can_write will return 0 for the first write which the spice-server
does not expect, when this happens the spice-server will never retry the write
causing communication to stall.

In the old spice-vmc device we used to have:
last_out = virtio_serial_write(&svc->port, p, MIN(len, VMC_MAX_HOST_WRITE));
if (last_out > 0)
...
Now in the chardev backend we have:
last_out = MIN(len, VMC_MAX_HOST_WRITE);
qemu_chr_read(scd->chr, p, last_out);
if (last_out > 0) {
...
Which causes us to no longer detect if the virtio port is not ready
to receive data from us. chardev actually has a mechanism to detect this,
but it requires a separate call to qemu_chr_can_read, before calling
qemu_chr_read (which return void).
This patch uses qemu_chr_can_read to fix the flow control from client to
guest.

qemu -device virtio-serial -chardev spicevmc,name=vdagent,id=vdagent \
