i think if bhyve arranged for its virtio_console device to be its
control terminal, it would receive SIGWINCH from the host kernel, which
it could propagate to the guest's
Hi Jakub,
The purpose of virtio-console is to create arbitrary bidirectional,
host-to-guest communication channels that bypass guest's network
stack (don't require working networking in the guest).
Could virtio-vsock be a better solution for this ? Docker's hyperkit
has an implementation,

fwiw, bhyve's existing console support is working fine for me. i use
rtty (from ports). my configuration looks like this:
[mm1.redbarn:amd64] ls -l /usr/local/rtty/dev
