Hi,
Option rom saga continued. This is the first series I consider ready
for merging. Changes:
* pci roms: will be loaded via option pci rom bar.
* non-pci roms: will be loaded via fw_cfg.
Note that using the old bochs-bios based pc-bios will stop working
with this patch series applied.
The last two patches of this series are *not* intended to be merged,
they are just for testing convinience. They carry a new seabios
binary and the changes needed and turn on bios debug messages in qemu.
Seabios patches will be posted shortly as separate patch series.
I know this series carries a good bit of risk but I'd like to bring it
in 0.12.0. Because this has a guest visible change to the PCI devices,
we cannot carry it in stable-0.12 post release and I think the
functionality it brings it's very important. Otherwise, it's easy to
trip up with using multiple nics and extboot in qemu-kvm.
Any objections?
Regards,
Anthony Liguori
