Re: [Qemu-devel] [PATCH 2 of 3] Optionally link against libuuid if present

[Filip Navara]

Hi Ryan & others,

now I have been holding a SMBIOS patch on my hard disk for way to long it seems. I used a different approach from yours, so I decided to publish it for review or further ideas. What I did was to modify the bochs bios to produce the SMBIOS tables and I get the UUID using VMware backdoor port from the virtual machine.

Attached are just the changed files, creating a patch will take a while because it's against VERY OLD version of the sources.

Oh, it also contains ACPI patch for the processor descriptors which was needed for some Windows versions and Darwin. Similar patch was used in KVM before, but this one dynamically detects the number of CPUs.

Best regards,
Filip Navara
