[Xen-devel] [PATCH v8 00/13] Load BIOS via toolstack instead of been embedded in hvmloader

[Wei Liu <wei.liu2@xxxxxxxxxx>]

This is version 8 of this series, rebased on top of staging.

The only change is "hvmloader: Check modules whereabouts in perform_tests" is
dropped.

The only unacked patch is "hvmloader: Locate the BIOS blob". I figured that
Anthony has answered Andrew's question and there is nothing to change.

I've only CC'ed relevant people on the unacked patch and this cover letter.

Wei.
