The original work for this was all done by Gleb Natapov; since there hadn't seemed to be any activity on this since June, I picked up his patches and ran with them (original posting: http://www.archivum.info/qemu-devel@nongnu.org/2008-06/msg00167.html). These patches are basically the same as his, just cleaned up according to Anthony Liguori's feedback. Gleb: I'm willing to do the additional work to get these patches included in Qemu proper; if you prefer to do it, that's fine too. I don't care either way, I would just like to see them go in. Anthony: I've addressed all of your comments from the previous patch series except for one. I didn't remove most of the "#ifdef CONFIG_UUID" from the vl.c file. In the case where UUID is not compiled into qemu, I think it is much preferable to noisily complain that we don't understand the -uuid command-line option, rather than silently fail to set it.
