Hi Alexander.

Thanks for another very useful contribution from you! We will add it to SVN soon.

Hi,

the attached patch adds host serial port support on linux hosts.
To enable it use the following commands:

VBoxManage setextradata "YourVM"
   "VBoxInternal/Devices/serial/0/Config/IRQ" 4
VBoxManage setextradata "YourVM"
   "VBoxInternal/Devices/serial/0/Config/IOBase" 0x3f8
VBoxManage setextradata "YourVM"
   "VBoxInternal/Devices/serial/0/LUN#0/Driver" "Host Serial"
VBoxManage setextradata "YourVM"
   "VBoxInternal/Devices/serial/0/LUN#0/Config/DevicePath" DevicePath
(for example /dev/ttyS0 for the first serial port (COM1))

be sure to have read/write permissions on the device file.
I'm able to program my Asuro robot on an windows guest (it's a little
bit slow but it works).

The patch is licensed under the MIT license.

Kind regards,
Alexander Eichner
