[Qemu-devel] [PATCH v6 00/12] Interactive Boot Menu for DASD and SCSI Guests on s390x

["Collin L. Walling" <walling@linux.vnet.ibm.com>]

--- [v6] ---

 - cleaned up libc.c

 - expanded timeout field in QemuIPLB from 2 bytes to 4 bytes
	- we can now store the timeout value from command line as ms

 - sclp_set_write_mask now accepts two parameters:
	- receive_mask
	- send_mask

 - the write mask for receive is only set when we need it (reading user inp)
	and cleared	when we no longer need it (no longer reading user inp)

 - pending irq code cleaned up

 - bootmap code for scsi fixed up -- it has the same limitations as DASD,
    so I added some similar checks in ipl_scsi

--- [Summary] ---

These patches implement a boot menu for ECKD DASD and SCSI guests on s390x. 
The menu will only appear if the disk has been configured for IPL with the 
zIPL tool and with the following QEMU command line options:

    -boot menu=on[,splash-time=X] and/or -machine loadparm='prompt'

The following must be specified for the device to be IPL'd from:

    -device ...,bootindex=1

or via the following libvirt domain xml:

    <os>
      <bootmenu enable='yes' timeout='X'/>
    </os>

    or
	
    <disk>
      ...
      <boot order='1' loadparm='PROMPT'/>
    </disk>

Where X is some positive integer representing time in milliseconds.

<boot order='1' ... > must be specified for the device to be IPL'd from

A loadparm other than 'prompt' will disable the menu and just boot 
the specified entry.

If no boot options are specified, we will attempt to use the values
provided by zipl (ECKD DASD only).
