Hi,
- I considered adding wildcards (say, blacklist "all" i440fx machtypes, present and future, for SMM-requiring OVMF builds), but then you get into version sorting and similar mess. I considered fnmatch() -- basically simple ? and * wildcards -- but that's not expressive enough.
I'd suggest whitelist with wildcards. So the smm builds would get "pc-q35-*". libvirt knows about aliases, so it should be able to handle the "q35" shortcut like "pc-q35-${latest}". Or do you see another issue? cheers, Gerd
