    I think that you also need to change spicevmc_red_channel_alloc_msg_rcv_buf,
    because now it will allocate a spice_char_device_write_buffer to hold the
    event message, which seems the wrong thing to do, and since when handling
    the event message you don't set  state->recv_from_client_buf = NULL, the
    next message received on the channel will trigger this assert:

         assert(!state->recv_from___client_buf);

    In spicevmc_red_channel_alloc___msg_rcv_buf, I think this does not happen
    in your testing since you only close the port once, and then send no
    more data.

It's a valid concern but it doesn't happen, because it is released by the following callback:

(gdb) bt
#0  spicevmc_red_channel_release_msg_rcv_buf (rcc=0x55555666a3f0, type=201, size=1,
     msg=0x5555568f0330 "\002\327q\363\377\177") at spicevmc.c:338
#1  0x00007ffff40df010 in red_peer_handle_incoming (stream=0x555556932770,
     handler=0x55555666e500) at red_channel.c:280
#2  0x00007ffff40df0ae in red_channel_client_receive (rcc=0x55555666a3f0)
     at red_channel.c:294
#3  0x00007ffff40e1e44 in red_channel_client_event (fd=28, event=1,
     data=0x55555666a3f0) at red_channel.c:1204SPICE_MSG_PORT_INIT, item);


Ah right, still using a spice_char_device_write_buffer to store the event byte
feels very wrong to me, it may happen to work, but it is not what a
spice_char_device_write_buffer is intended for and may well cause weird side
effects in the future.

Regards,

Hans
