Re: [Qemu-discuss] How to get console output after spawning new process

[Maciej Bielski]

Ok, I have found a solution. The process spawned was using SIGUSR1 to
signal something to the parent process (device internals). It seems that
QEMU uses SIGUSR1 internally because when I have switched to SIGUSR2 it
works as expected.
