[Qemu-devel] [RFC PATCH V5 0/3] Support xen HVM direct kernel boot |

Updated current patch series for working with qemu-xen and default
BIOS (seabios), to make it in good shape. Stubdom support will be
continued.
xen side patches:
* pass kernel/initrd/append parameters to qemu-dm
* add 'cmdline' in xl.cfg
qemu side patch: reuse load_linux() for xen hvm direct kernel boot.
Different from pc_memory_init which does lots of ram alloc work
and rom/bios loading work, for xen, we only need to init a basic
fw_cfg device used by load_linux() to store ADDRs and
linuxboot.bin/multiboot.bin to retrive ADDRs, then load_linux(),
after that, do real add option rom work to add
linuxboot.bin/multiboot.bin to system option rom. Other things
would be done by seabios smoothly.
Changes:
xen side patch:
- add 'cmdline' in xl.cfg (as a separate patch)
- update u.pv.kernel compable work: fill in b_info.kernel with
old u.pv.kernel in libxl__domain_build_info_setdefault, handle
b_info.kernel only later.
- update libxl.h to include LIBXL_HAVE_BUILDINFO_KERNEL only
rather than three
qemu side patch:
- no change to v4.
