Hmm, so a guest can cause a denial of service in the host qemu process?
Are you working on adding the write queues?

This can happen?  Does this bring the whole connection down?  The whole
virtproxy instance?

Not a guest...though they could DoS the agent in this manner. But there 
seems to be an analogous situation in qemu currently, where a malicious 
client connects to, say, a socket setup to listen for telnet connections 
to the qemu monitor, sends a bunch of info commands, and doesn't read 
anything coming back to it. That might eventually cause the qemu process 
to hang when a monitor_flush->qemu_chr_write->send_all(client_fd) 
happens. A malicious client connecting to a forwarding port/socket on 
the host side could cause a similiar situation.

So if it's a problem, it seems like a problem that should be addressed 
more generally. A general, asynchronous implementation of send_all for 
instance.

It can if write() returns 0, so only if we do a non-blocking write() 
inside vp_send_all/send_all. It's basically a TODO...since right now the 
writes are blocking ones, so it shouldn't happen. If we used 
non-blocking writes though we'd need to call vp_send_all(fd, (void 
*)pkt->payload.proxied.data + ret, pkt->payload.proxied.bytes - ret) in 
a loop, it wouldn't be an error case. I'll clean this up a bit.
