domU ttyS0 modem access
I need to acccess a modem on ttyS0 from a domU,
I cannot seem to find any information on this,
maybe I am searching for the wrong term.

Only one specific dom shall be allowed to access ttyS0.

Anyway, can anyone give me a pointer ?

Have a nice day.

unstable makes this easier. On 2.0 you can do this so long as you don't
use any com port in Xen (no comX= line on the xen command line). Just
compile the 8250 uart drvier into your xenU kernel, and give the domain
IO privilege by giving it a fake pci device line.
