Kevin? Fine are you ok with this? Would the above schedule be realistic? I'm be inclined to just go with seabios 1.7.0 in 1.2 and arrange for an upgrade for the next qemu release. -Kevin

We have a bunch of user-visible new features in master which I'd like to have included in qemu 1.2 ... cheers, Gerd

The 1.2 release is on September 1st but we're in hard freeze starting on August 15th. I wouldn't want to make any changes later than the 21st. Regards, Anthony Liguori > > Anthony? Kevin?

However, I think testing coverage is the biggest concern. If you want to do this, I suggest we pull the current SeaBIOS snapshot now (as Gerd's plan calls for), and I'll immediately start a bugfix only mode. -Kevin
Hi, This pull updates seabios in qemu to the latest bits from seabios master, so the upcoming 1.2 qemu release gets all the new shiny stuff added recently. I'd like to have a new seabios release for inclusion into qemu 1.2 which is planned for September 1st. So how about this plan: - merge seabios snapshot now (this pull req), so it gets testing in the qemu testing & release candidates phase - put seabios into bugfixing freeze too (now or in a few days), fix any issues poping up in testing. - roll out seabios release by end of august, so it can be included into qemu 1.2 Anthony? Kevin? Fine are you ok with this? qemu release schedule is here: http://wiki.qemu.org/Planning/1.2 cheers, Gerd Gerd Hoffmann (1): update seabios to latest master pc-bios/bios.bin | Bin 131072 -> 131072 bytes roms/seabios | 2 +- 2 files changed, 1 insertions(+), 1 deletions(-) The following changes since commit 0b8db8fe15d17a529a5ea90614c11e9f031dfee8: slirp: fix build on mingw32 (2012-08-06 19:31:55 -0500) are available in the git repository at: git://git.kraxel.org/qemu seabios-5a02306 Gerd Hoffmann (1): update seabios to latest master pc-bios/bios.bin | Bin 131072 -> 131072 bytes roms/seabios | 2 +- 2 files changed, 1 insertions(+), 1 deletions(-)
