Hi.
Let's do an OVMF BoF at this year's KVM Forum too.
Paolo will present
Securing secure boot: system management mode in KVM and Tiano Core
on Thursday, August 20, in the 5:00pm - 5:30pm time slot.
Right after that, the BoF section starts at 5:30pm:
http://events.linuxfoundation.org/events/kvm-forum/program/schedule
We should convene and discuss stuff. I don't have an agenda, so people
should bring their ideas and questions (famous last words).
As food for thought, I tried to collect the feature-looking patches from
the git history that have been committed since last year's KVM Forum,
and to match them against patch sets on the mailing list:
git log --reverse --oneline --since=2014-10-14 -- \
OvmfPkg/ \
ArmVirtPkg/ \
ArmPlatformPkg/ArmVirtualizationPkg/
I attempted to sort them into categories. You can see the list below.
The ordering is totally random, it's just what I ended up with.
Corrections / additions welcome.
Personally, one (missing) feature I'd like to see discussed is
"SataControllerDxe in OVMF". SMM will require Q35, and the only "IDE"
that Q35 speaks is SATA / AHCI. (And you can't disable that controller
on Q35.)
Anyway, here goes.
