Hi and just wanted to say love oVirt.
I'm using oVirt 3.5 on Fedora20 to help with are devel/testing needs. Are s=
oftware 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 everythin=
g 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.

Thank for the pointers I'll try it over xmas :)

also, if it helps you may want to check out some of the patches done by Eldorado guys when
they were adding Power7 support. There were quite a few patches directly adding the
support, but while I would agree the custom properties and hooks are best at this point it
still can help you to understand all the different places…
Look at our gerrit, master branch, 2013 onwards, and filter these guys:
owner:"Leonardo Bianconi <lbianc(a)gmail.com>"
owner:"Gustavo Frederico Temple Pedrosa
<gustavo.pedrosa(a)eldorado.org.br>"
owner:"Vitor de Lima <vdelima(a)redhat.com>"
Thanks,
michal
