Hey Rusty, This patchset is on top of the previous one. It sends a SIGIO signal to apps that request signals for host activity. SIGIO is sent on host connect, disconnect as well as hot-unplug (which can be seen as a special case of host disconnect). Tested using several testcases in the test-virtserial repo: http://fedorapeople.org/gitweb?p=amitshah/public_git/test-virtserial.git Please apply. Thanks, Amit.
