This started out with Jordan's 2011 patch: http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/qemu-devel/2011-04/msg00238.html which I picked up and re-submitted with some moderate editing to bring it in line with the current state of fw_cfg, work in lots of good suggestions from Laszlo, add documentation for the host-side API, etc. The original patch didn't have a copyright line either, so at this point I believe the default is preferable (path of least resistance). Alternatively, if Jordan would like to add a copyright line to the top of the file (as the original author), I have no problem with that whatsoever. Thanks much, --Gabriel
