Is there a way to select which ROM image qemu uses from the qemu command line?
The file names are explicitly added to the qemu command-line: <qemu:commandline> <qemu:arg value='-option-rom'/> <qemu:arg value='/usr/share/kvm/pxe-virtio.bin'/> </qemu:commandline>
So we definitely need to expose this in the XML; we already have os/bios, so perhaps this would be the best location: <domain ...> <os> <bios useserial='yes'> <rom>/usr/share/kvm/pxe-virtio.bin</rom> </bios> </os> ... and if /bios/rom[0] is not present, then we have to figure out how to provide a sane default. Does qemu provide a -help option that says what option-rom it will use if -option-rom was not provided on the command line? Are you interested in working on patches on this front? -- Eric Blake eblake@redhat.com +1-919-301-3266 Libvirt virtualization library http://libvirt.org
