Change owner(s): Cole Robinson <crobinso@redhat.com>
Fix running ARM VMs on x86 hosts using standard libvirt tools libvirt virsh,
virt-manager and virt-install.
== Detailed description ==
qemu has an ARM emulator that works well and is actively used in the Fedora
ARM effort. However libvirt and virt-manager currently have issues launching
qemu-system-arm VMs, mostly by encoding x86 assumptions in the generated
command line that cause qemu-system-arm to fail to start. Let's fix it!
== Scope ==
Proposal owners:
1. Get fixed virt-manager and libvirt packages into Fedora by the feature
freeze
2.Fix issues in libvirt with generating qemu-system-arm command lines
* We may only target a single machine type for this, need to determine [1]
3. Fix virt-manager to not encode incorrect device types like 'ide' [2]
4. Optionally identify any UI defaults that can be improved to handle this
case
