Hi,
qemu soft freeze for 2.4 is just around the corner, time to think about
the seabios release which should be included there.
A new release from master isn't even planned yet[1], so I think we
should go for a 1.8.2 stable release. So, if there are any fixes which
should be cherry-picked into stable please speak up now. So far my list
is pretty short:
87f848e vga: rework virtio-vga support
cheers,
Gerd
[1] It probably makes sense to plan once the tpm support merge
is complete.

For the next master release: we've been working with Marcel on properly
formatting OFW devpaths in QEMU, for the "bootorder" fw_cfg file, for
booting off devices behind a PXB. Patches are on qemu-devel (meaning
they should be okay for 2.4). I have patches for OVMF and Marcel is
looking into SeaBIOS. So, I think support for these devpaths too should
be included in the next master release of SeaBIOS.
Thanks
Laszlo

Looked through the log. The leal instruction and ahci max-ports fixes
are worth having too I think. So I have this list now:
nilsson kraxel ~/projects/seabios (1.8-stable)# git log --oneline rel-1.8.1..
eb3677a vga: rework virtio-vga support
33d4d4f build: Support "make VERSION=xyz" to override the default build version
dbd4a87 ahci: Ignore max_ports.
42f6019 vgabios: Emulate "leal" instruction
c5fa0c5 vgabios: Add config option for assembler fixups
cheers,
Gerd

I think "smm: ignore bits 16,18-31 of SMM revision ID" (92f9b918)
should also be considered.
The release plan sounds good to me.

Makes sense indeed, picked it up.
Updated public 1.8-stable branch.
I plan to tag 1.8.2 tomorrow.
cheers,

I looked a little further. If 799b20b0 is picked up then I think the
fix in f24eb2f8 (just pushed) makes sense as well. Also, 18449686
looks like a straight forward bug fix.
What do you think about 251e2638 + 3b9b9f24 ? These work around the
Windows Vista (and possibly later) hangs in the vgabios with old
16-bit apps (the "skifree" problem).

Yes. (btw: picked 799b20b0 to make the leal fix apply without
conflicts).

Added too.

Hmm, not sure. Feeling a bit nervous, but maybe I'm overcautious ...
cheers,
