[virt-tools-list] [PATCH virt-manager] details: Add UI for enabling UEFI via 'customize before install'

Cole Robinson crobinso at redhat.com
Wed Sep 17 22:55:15 UTC 2014


We expose a simple combobox with two entries: BIOS, and UEFI. The
UEFI option is only selectable if 1) libvirt supports the necessary
domcapabilities bits, 2) it detects that qemu supports the necessary
command line options, and 3) libvirt detects a UEFI binary on the
host that maps to a known template via qemu.conf

If those conditions aren't met, we disable the UEFI option, and show
a small warning icon with an explanatory tooltip.

The option can only be changed via New VM->Customize Before Install.
For existing x86 VMs, it's a readonly label.
