	A QEMU pipe is a very fast communication channel between the guest system and the emulator. Usage from the guest is simply something like; // connect to special device fd = open("/dev/qemu_pipe", O_RDWR); // tell which service we want to talk to (must be zero-terminated) write(fd, "pipeName", strlen("pipeName")+1); // do read()/write() through fd now ... // close channel close(fd); Signed-off-by: David 'Digit' Turner <digit@android.com> [Added support for parameter buffers for speed] igned-off-by: Xin, Xiaohui <xiaohui.xin@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Jiang, Yunhong <yunhong.jiang@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Nakajima, Jun <jun.nakajima@intel.com> [Ported to 3.6] Signed-off-by: Tom Keel <thomas.keel@intel.com> [Ported to 3.7, moved to platform/goldfish] Signed-off-by: Alan Cox <alan@linux.intel.com> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>

2008-12-19	create drivers/platform/x86/ from drivers/misc/	Len Brown
	Move x86 platform specific drivers from drivers/misc/ to a new home under drivers/platform/x86/. The community has been maintaining x86 vendor-specific platform specific drivers under /drivers/misc/ for a few years. The oldest ones started life under drivers/acpi. They moved out of drivers/acpi/ because they don't actually implement the ACPI specification, but either simply use ACPI, or implement vendor-specific ACPI extensions. In the future we anticipate... drivers/misc/ will go away. other architectures will create drivers/platform/<arch> Signed-off-by: Len Brown <len.brown@intel.com>
