These patches wire up the virtio-gpu device for CCW bus for
S390.
For the S390 architecture which does not natively support any graphics
device, virtio gpu in 2D mode could be used to emulate a simple graphics
card and use VNC as the display.
eg: qemu-system-s390x ... -device virtio-gpu-ccw,devno=fe.0.0101
-vnc host_ip_addr:5900
Note, to actually see any display content the
guest kernel needs to support DRM layer, Virtio GPU driver,
the Virtual Terminal layer etc.
I would appreciate any feedback on these patches, specially the
first patch.
Thank you
Farhan
