Subject: [PATCH v4 05/14] libxl: Load guest BIOS from file
Date: Mon, 14 Mar 2016 17:55:40 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1457978150-27201-6-git-send-email-anthony.perard@citrix.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1457978150-27201-1-git-send-email-anthony.perard@citrix.com>
The path to the BIOS blob can be override by the xl's bios_override option,
or provided by u.hvm.bios_firmware in the domain_build_info struct by other
libxl user.
Signed-off-by: Anthony PERARD <anthony.perard@citrix.com>
---
Change in V4:
- updating man page to have bios_override described.
- return ERROR_INVAL in libxl__load_hvm_firmware_module when the file is
empty.
Change in V3:
- move seabios_path and ovmf_path to libxl_path.c (with renaming)
- fix some coding style
- warn for empty file
- remove rombios stuff (will still be built-in hvmloader)
- rename field bios_filename in domain_build_info to bios_firmware to
follow naming of acpi and smbios.
- log an error after libxl_read_file_contents() only when it return ENOENT
- return an error on empty file.
- added #define LIBXL_HAVE_BUILDINFO_HVM_BIOS_FIRMWARE
