[PATCH] sandbox: new --stdinout option to enable a bidirectional console

Aleksander Morgado aleksander at aleksander.es
Fri Jun 2 05:01:05 PDT 2017


In addition to allowing read-only and write-only consoles with --stdin
and --stdout, we now allow bidirectional read/write consoles with FIFO
files. This is e.g. to allow doing RATP over the FIFO based consoles.
