[libvirt] How to define QEMU/SMBIOS Attributes in virsh
Hello,
I have a "request for Help" please.
Myself:
I'm a native german language speaker and
I' work with qemu/virsh since 6 months now.
At the moment I try to define/configure qemu/smbios
attributes in a virsh xml-file.
My current problem:
I need to configure two on-board lan elements.
Thanks to Gerd Hoffmann (Qemu group). He gave me the hint for
smbios/acpi configuration. For this configuration I need a
type 41 record. I found on http://libvirt.org some descriptions
for smbios but only for type 0 and 1.
In qemu the solution is available:

Add SMBIOS type 41 fields (Onboard Devices Extended Information). Could be
specified multiple times for different devices. Mandatory options are
address@hidden in form
"[[<domain>:]<bus>:]<slot>.<func>" and
address@hidden in form
"[[<domain>:]<bus>:]<slot>.<func>" or
@option{id}, and
@option{instance} number. @option{instance} shoud be in range [1, 255] and
should be unique within specified @option{device-type}.
@option{designation} is
an optional string that somehow designates device. @option{status} is
a device

So my question: How can I configure such record in a virsh xml-file please.
Any help is appreciated.
