Some applications inside VM need to access SMBIOS Chassis Asset Tag,
which should be emulated.
access inside VM (for example)
Linux: /sys/class/dmi/id/chassis_asset_tag.
Windows: (Get-WmiObject Win32_SystemEnclosure).SMBIOSAssetTag
wirhin Windows PowerShell.
It has already been realized in qemu:
SMBIOS: Build aggregate smbios tables and entry point
https://git.qemu.org/?p=qemu.git;a=commit;h=c97294ec1b9e36887e119589d4565...
but not in libvirt. we realize it here.
As an example, you could use something like
<chassis>
<entry name='manufacturer'>Huawei</entry>
<entry name='version'>To be filled by O.E.M.</entry>
<entry name='serial'>To be filled by O.E.M.</entry>
<entry name='asset'>To be filled by O.E.M.</entry>
Would prefer some more "realistic values" rather than "To be filled by
O.E.M."... They don't have to be exactly what is on your system, but
closer to expectations would be nice. Similar to what already exists.
You can just respond here and I can make the changes for you.
NB: The xml files you put in patch2 should have been in patch1 - I can
move those too.
Other than that everything looks good to me.

<entry name='sku'>Type3Sku1</entry>
</chassis>
BTW: I'll be on vacation for china spring festival for the next week, I'll
response as soon as I get back if there's any modification needed.
