Create a new -smbios option (x86-only) to allow binary SMBIOS entries
to be passed through to the BIOS or modify the default values of
individual fields of type 0 and 1 entries on the command line.
Binary SMBIOS entries can be generated as follows:
dmidecode -t 1 -u | grep $'^\t\t[^"]' | xargs -n1 | \
perl -lne 'printf "%c", hex($_)' > smbios_type_1.bin
These can then be passed to the BIOS using this switch:
-smbios file=smbios_type_1.bin
Command line generation supports the following syntax:
-smbios type=0[,vendor=str][,version=str][,date=str][,release=%d.%d]
-smbios type=1[,manufacturer=str][,product=str][,version=str][,serial=str]
[,uuid=$(uuidgen)][,sku=str][,family=str]
For instance, to add a serial number to the type 1 table:
-smbios type=1,serial=0123456789
Interface is extensible to support more fields/tables as needed.

- The PC BIOS comes from the Bochs project (http://bochs.sourceforge.net/). The patches in bios-pq have been applied. The binary is based on the revision in bios-pq/HEAD with the patches in bios-pq/series applied. The git repo that HEAD refers to is located at git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/virt/bochs/bochs.git To build these use the following instructions: using guilt: $ export QEMUSRC=/path/to/qemu/svn $ git clone git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/virt/bochs/bochs.git $ cd bochs $ git checkout -b qemu-bios $(cat $QEMUSRC/pc-bios/bios-pq/HEAD) $ mkdir -p .git/patches $ ln -s $QEMUSRC/pc-bios/bios-pq .git/patches/qemu-bios $ touch .git/patches/qemu-bios/status $ guilt push -a $ ./configure $ cd bios $ make $ cp BIOS-bochs-latest $QEMUSRC/pc-bios/bios.bin or alternatively (after the git checkout): $ for p in $(cat $QEMUSRC/pc-bios/bios-pq/series); do git am $p; done $ ./configure $ make bios - The VGA BIOS and the Cirrus VGA BIOS come from the LGPL VGA bios project (http://www.nongnu.org/vgabios/). The binary is based on the revision in vgabios-pq/HEAD with the patches in vgabios-pq/series applied. The git repo that HEAD refers to is located at git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/virt/vgabios/vgabios.git - The PowerPC Open Hack'Ware Open Firmware Compatible BIOS is available at http://perso.magic.fr/l_indien/OpenHackWare/index.htm. - video.x is a PowerMac NDRV compatible driver for a VGA frame buffer. It comes from the Mac-on-Linux project (http://www.maconlinux.org/). - OpenBIOS (http://www.openbios.org/) is a free (GPL v2) portable firmware implementation. The goal is to implement a 100% IEEE 1275-1994 (referred to as Open Firmware) compliant firmware. The included images for Sparc32, Sparc64 and PowerPC (for 32 and 64 bit PPC CPUs) are built from OpenBIOS SVN revision 482. - The PXE roms come from Rom-o-Matic etherboot 5.4.2. pcnet32:pcnet32 -- [0x1022,0x2000] ns8390:winbond940 -- [0x1050,0x0940] rtl8139:rtl8139 -- [0x10ec,0x8139] http://rom-o-matic.net/
