Hi and just wanted to say love oVirt.
I’m using oVirt 3.5 on Fedora20 to help with are devel/testing needs.
Are software runs on top of Linux both in Intel and ARM platforms.
While oVirt can handle very well the intel side of things I still need
to run everything on ARM on real hardware. What I’m wondering is there a
plan to support at least ARM emulation using QEMU now libVirt has been
fixed.
Thank
Chapman….
I can't say there is a real plan to do so at this point, but it
shouldn't block you from writing a custom hook changing the xml we pass
to libvirt to envoke qemu-kvm with arm instead of qemu-kvm.
you can (ab)use maybe some existing behaviors/properties, as well as add
more of your own via custom properties (and for fancy - custom ui
plugins to show those custom properties in the proper dialogs)
I'd say that's a good start to adding such support as an add-on, before
considering it in the main code base.
that's actually how we sometime develop a new feature - first "try it
for sanity" via a custom hook to understand its scope and the issues.
