[libvirt] [PATCH 0/3] virSysinfo: Introduce SMBIOS type 3 support

[Zhuangyanying]

From: Zhuang Yanying <ann.zhuangyanying at huawei.com>

Some applications inside VM need to access SMBIOS Chassis Asset Tag,
which should be emulated.

access inside VM (for example)
Linux:   /sys/class/dmi/id/chassis_asset_tag.
Windows: (Get-WmiObject Win32_SystemEnclosure).SMBIOSAssetTag
          wirhin Windows PowerShell.

It has already been realized in qemu:

SMBIOS: Build aggregate smbios tables and entry point
https://git.qemu.org/?p=qemu.git;a=commit;h=c97294ec1b9e36887e119589d456557d72ab37b5

but not in libvirt. we realize it here.
As an example, you could use something like

    <chassis>
      <entry name='manufacturer'>Huawei</entry>
      <entry name='version'>To be filled by O.E.M.</entry>
      <entry name='serial'>To be filled by O.E.M.</entry>
      <entry name='asset'>To be filled by O.E.M.</entry>
      <entry name='sku'>Type3Sku1</entry>
    </chassis>

BTW: I'll be on vacation for china spring festival for the next week, I'll response as soon as I get back if there's any modification needed.
