Hi,
First thanks for taking the time to upstream those patch
that will help a lot.
I think the patch will be let intrusive if we could do all
that bios mapping + copying inside qemu so we don't need to
modify the xc_hvm_build function.
Qemu starts before the bios so that should be doable.
Thanks,
Jean
