Hi, this is a prototype of something I've around for some time. Basically it is about adding new appliances in addition to the main one currently used and kept up-to-date automatically: this way it is possible to create new appliances with extra packages, to be used in specific contexts (like virt-rescue, with more network/recovery tools) without filling the main appliance. It's still

Doing qemu feature detection in the direct backend takes ~100ms because we need to run `qemu -help' and `qemu -devices ?', and each of those interacts with glibc's very slow link loader. Fixing the link loader is really hard. Instead memoize the output of those two commands. This patch series first separates all the code dealing with qemu into a separate module (src/qemu.c) and

libguestfs has used double and triple underscores in identifiers. These aren't valid for global names in C++. (http://stackoverflow.com/a/228797) These large but completely mechanical patches change the illegal identifiers to legal ones. Rich.

Lots of changes since v2, too much to remember or summarize. Please ignore patch 11/11, it's just for my testing. Rich.

v1 was here: https://www.redhat.com/archives/libguestfs/2016-March/thread.html#00157 Not running the 'hwclock' command reduces boot times considerably. However I'm not sure if it is safe. See the question I posted on qemu-devel: http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.emulators.qemu/402194 At the moment, about 50% of the time is consumed by SeaBIOS. Of this, about ⅓rd is SGABIOS
