Hi,
During slim_uefi code review Darren suggested that we might need to bump
the AI and possibly the DC manifest DTD versions because we have bumped
the target DTD version which both AI and DC include.
For reference, the webrev including the target.dtd changes is here:
https://cr.opensolaris.org/action/browse/caiman/niall/slim_uefi_version_01/webrev-uefi-ver-1/
Here are a few factoids:
- the target.dtd change is restricted to the physical section of target
so there would be no practical or visible impact to DC users
- the new version of target.dtd is backwards compatible with the
previous version of target.dtd. We only add in definitions for
GPT elements. The existing elements are unchanged (minus a bug fix
that makes partitions. slices and gpt partitions mutually exclusive
direct children of a disk)
- An AI manifest that defines GPT partitions would fail to validate
against an AI client that only expects non-GPT target elements ie.
slices and MBR partitions.
Given the above, and other considerations that I am sure I have
overlooked, I'd appreciate some feedback or guidance on what the
appropriate course of action might be.
Thanks!
Niall
