    conf: Extend <loader/> and introduce <nvram/> · 68bf13db
    Michal Privoznik 提交于
    Up to now, users can configure BIOS via the <loader/> element. With
    the upcoming implementation of UEFI this is not enough as BIOS and
    UEFI are conceptually different. For instance, while BIOS is ROM, UEFI
    is programmable flash (although all writes to code section are
    denied). Therefore we need new attribute @type which will
    differentiate the two. Then, new attribute @readonly is introduced to
    reflect the fact that some images are RO.
    
    Moreover, the OVMF (which is going to be used mostly), works in two
    modes:
    1) Code and UEFI variable store is mixed in one file.
    2) Code and UEFI variable store is separated in two files
    
    The latter has advantage of updating the UEFI code without losing the
    configuration. However, in order to represent the latter case we need
    yet another XML element: <nvram/>. Currently, it has no additional
    attributes, it's just a bare element containing path to the variable
    store file.
