Firmware auto-select limitation
by GUOQING LI
Hi everyone and Martin
I would like to confirm the conversation we had in regard the possible limitation of firmware auto-select feature that’s been released since v5.20. I recall you saying that there were a lot of issues with auto select and later they shipped it into a Json file , it still didn’t solve all the problems, did it?
Is it better to explicitly specify the loader and nvram path than using auto-select ?
Just today, I encountered the issue of using firmware=“efi” on libvirt 5.4.0
I am running Ubuntu eoan 19.10, I am wondering how did it happen.
Detailed error

[PATCH v2 0/3] qemu: Use -numa memdev= if -numa mem= is unavailable
by Michal Privoznik
v2 of:
https://www.redhat.com/archives/libvir-list/2020-May/msg00490.html
diff to v1:
- different approach used. I completely forgot about the discussion we
had, but after Dan pointed it out to me, it clicked.
Michal Prívozník (3):
qemu: Track numa-mem-supported machine attribute
qemuBuildNumaArgStr: Switch order of if() and for()
qemuBuildNumaArgStr: Use modern -numa memdev= if old -numa mem= is
unsupported

[PATCH] README: Replace "configure" with "autogen.sh" for correct installation
by Yi Wang
From: LiaoPingfang <liao.pingfang(a)zte.com.cn>
First of all, there is no "configure" file.
We need use autogen.sh at first to create "configure" file.
Then in autogen.sh "configure" will be executed according to
user as root or non-root.
