This also replaces the Fedora download example with another one from
Ubuntu, since Fedora's images these days no longer qualify as DDIs, they
have no distinctive partition type UUIDs set for multiple of their
partitions, hence the images cannot be booted. A bit sad. Let's provide
a command that just works in its place.
Let's make systemd-nspawn use our own ptyfwd logic to handle the TTY by
default.
This adds a new setting --console=, inspired by nspawn's setting of the
same name. If --console=interactive= is used, then we'll do the TTY
dance on our own via ptyfwd, and thus get tinting, our usual hotkey
handling and similar.
Since qemu's own console is useful too, let's keep it around via
--console=native.
FInally, replace the --qemu-gui switch by --console=gui.
This renames a few of the switches vmspawn takes, such as --qemu-mem=
and --qemu-smp= to names without the "qemu" moniker and uses less
cryptic names (i.e. --ram= and --cpus=).
I think it's a bit unsystematic that so far we use the "qemu" prefix for
some options but not for others. At least I could not figure out a
system when we use it and when we don't. Hence let's clean it up and
just use simpler names without suffix.
After all we might want to plug other hypervisors behind vmspawn one
day, hence I think there's value in sticking to generic names for these
switches that allow us to switch out backends easily. In particular for
--ram= and --cpus= which are probably the most fundamental of VM settings
there are.
The old switches are support for compat, but not advertised in man page
or --help text anymore.
I left "--qemu-gui" under its current name, since it fundamentally is a
a qemu concept, exposing a qemu specific graphical UI.
Let's make the firmware file to choose configurable, and enumeratable.
This adds --firmware= to select the formare, and in particular
--firmware=list to show available options.
This changes how the "extra" command line arguments passed to vmspawn
are handled.
Previously they were appended to the QEMU command line directly.
Now they are appended to the kernel command line using SMBIOS instead.
