Reply-To: qemu-devel@nongnu.org List-Id: qemu-devel.nongnu.org List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , To: qemu-devel@nongnu.org I'm looking at QEMU to help develop some device drivers and a couple of new features would be really useful. First is bios support for ACPI so we can run Windows Vista/Longhorn in QEMU. Second is PCI Message Signaled Interrupts (MSI) supported in modern Intel CPUs. Is there an effort to add these two features to QEMU? Any patches available? -Brad
