fwiw, bhyve's existing console support is working fine for me. i use rtty (from ports). my configuration looks like this: [mm1.redbarn:amd64] ls -l /usr/local/rtty/dev total 3 lrwxr-xr-x 1 root wheel 11 May 18 2014 family@ -> /dev/nmdm2A lrwxr-xr-x 1 root wheel 11 May 17 2014 guests@ -> /dev/nmdm0A lrwxr-xr-x 1 root wheel 11 Nov 16 2014 pbx@ -> /dev/nmdm5A lrwxr-xr-x 1 root wheel 11 Jun 1 2014 sleipnir@ -> /dev/nmdm3A lrwxr-xr-x 1 root wheel 11 May 18 2014 util@ -> /dev/nmdm1A lrwxr-xr-x 1 root wheel 11 May 1 2015 yeti-dns@ -> /dev/nmdm7A the bhyve processes are using the corresponding "B" devices. rtty keeps logs: [mm1.redbarn:amd64] ls -l /usr/local/rtty/log/ total 164401 -rw-r----- 1 root wheel 2132344 Jul 10 07:18 family -rw-r----- 1 root wheel 1176529 Jul 10 03:58 guests -rw-r----- 1 root wheel 1964961 Jul 11 06:23 pbx -rw-r----- 1 root wheel 133664527 Jul 11 17:25 sleipnir -rw-r----- 1 root wheel 17943116 Jul 11 17:06 util -rw-r----- 1 root wheel 11042436 Jul 11 17:11 yeti-dns so i can find out why something crashed even if i wasn't watching at the time. so, i'm having trouble understanding the need for virtio-console to be able to open a host-side unix-domain socket in the file system? vixie (author of rtty)
