Re: [libvirt] [PATCH v2] qemu: Allow UEFI paths to be specified at compile time
Hi,
Hmm, so it occurrs to me that this is really about detecting what
BIOS capabilities QEMU is able to support.
IMHO this isn't a property of qemu, but a property of the firmware.
Thats why I think the firmware packages should include some config file
with the meta data.
We have standardized on
interogating QEMU via QMP for this purpose. So rather than libvirt
having to know about paths, or config files, I wonder if QEMU should
own this knowledge and then expose the information via QMP.
We could have qemu parse the firmware config files and export this via
qmp, but I fail to see the benefits this extra indirection brings us.
cheers,
Gerd
