chardevs have a 'can_read' function via which backends specify the amount of data they can receive. When can_read returns > 0, apps can start sending data. However, each chardev driver here allows a max. of 1k bytes inspite of the backend being able to receive more. The best we can do here is to allocate s->max_size bytes from the heap on each call (which is the number returned by the backend from the can_read call). This is an intermediate step to bump up the bytes written in each call to 4k. Signed-off-by: Amit Shah <amit.shah@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Anthony Liguori <aliguori@us.ibm.com>
