Description Jeff Nelson 2017-01-16 23:51:45 UTC
Description of problem:

Various components related to qemu-kvm-rhev need to be rebased for RHEL-7.4. It is not known if ipxe is one of them, so this is just a default placeholder in case it's needed.

Note this is would only be needed for the roms-qemu subcomponent, but due to the nature of the rebase action, all ipxe subcomponents would be affected.

Comment 2 Ladi Prosek 2017-01-22 16:16:56 UTC
The following virtio fixes have just been applied to upstream iPXE:

http://git.ipxe.org/ipxe.git/commitdiff/e45451c
http://git.ipxe.org/ipxe.git/commitdiff/b782a56
http://git.ipxe.org/ipxe.git/commitdiff/fba3b39

We want them in 7.4, either through a rebase or cherry-picked individually.


Other commits of interest since the last rebase are Laszlo's:

http://git.ipxe.org/ipxe.git/commitdiff/dd9a14d
http://git.ipxe.org/ipxe.git/commitdiff/b991c67

although I'm not sure if the fxsave/fxrstor bug will be fixed in KVM instead. Adding Laszlo.

Comment 3 Laszlo Ersek 2017-01-23 09:37:09 UTC
The KVM issue / feature request is tracked in RHBZ 1356762.
