[Qemu-devel] [PATCH v2 2/2] SMBIOS: Update Type 0 struct generator for machines >= 2.1

["Gabriel L. Somlo" <gsomlo@gmail.com>]

A type 0 (bios info) smbios structure is only generated if explicitly
requested on the command line. This patch updates the mechanism for
generating this type of structure as follows:

  - convert bios_characteristics field to uin64_t (instead of uint8_t[8])
    as described in the current smbios spec (v2.8)

  - enable "virtual machine" bit in bios_characteristics_extension_bits

  - add command line option to enable "uefi supported" bit in
    bios_characteristics_extension_bits

These updates should make this optional smbios structure more useful when
used with edk2/ovmf. Only pc machines 2.1 and newer are affected, and only
when the user explicitly requests that a type 0 struct be generated.
