Oh, nice catch! I'll change that now on my local copy.

Doing qemu feature detection in the direct backend takes ~100ms
because we need to run `qemu -help' and `qemu -devices ?', and each of
those interacts with glibc's very slow link loader.
Fixing the link loader is really hard. Instead memoize the
output of those two commands.

qemu feature detection takes about 95ms on my laptop. The overhead is
almost all due to the time taken by the glibc link loader opening the
170+ libraries that qemu is linked to (×2 because we need to run qemu
twice).
Fixing that is seriously hard work.
Therefore memoize the results of guestfs_i
This is code motion, but I have cleaned up and formalized the

Running ldconfig adds about 100ms to the boot time. I would prefer
that we understood which libraries need ldconfig to be run, and fix
that. We could also consider running ldconfig in parallel, but since
it might be required by just about any binary that the init script
runs it's not clear what b
Previously we were running ldconfig to create /etc/ld.so.cache.
This is required, at least on Fedora, if we need to run any binary

Setting spice display if we know the libvirt guest doesn't have QXL
capabilities will only make the guest slower for the user. Fallback
to VNC in such a case.
A typical use case is when v2v-ing a windows guest without having the
windows QXL driver at hand.

To make sure we can also find the initrd on openSUSE and SLES, we need two

To allow saving save in the package shipping the windows virtio
drivers, we can use symlinks between the drivers folders. For example
SUSE VMDP drivers are the same for Win8.1 and Win2012r2, one folder
is a symlink to the other.
To take advantages of this, find must use the -L flag.

Hi there!
I know it's been a while since I posted my first version of some patches.
But here I have rebased them on top of Roman's work and added a few other ones.

v2v: also search for windows virtio drivers in symlinks
Update packagelist for SLES
customize: fix windo
Sync the windows firstboot script with its linux brother. Also change
the main redirection to append to the log rather than overwriting it.
With this change, the firstboot script will resist reboots in the
