commit 6f54f5c1e37a42b395ca793f869b73aa902602ed Author: Kevin Zhao <[email protected]> Date: Wed Aug 2 17:50:28 2017 +0800 Use UEFI as the default boot for AArch64 There are two ways of booting VM on AArch64 architecture: 1. UEFI 2. kernel+initrd No one sane goes for 2nd option so hw_firmware_type=uefi has to be set for every image. Otherwise they simply hang. So let's set is as default if no other value for hw_firmware_type is set. If someone will implement own way then they can set hw_firmware_type to own value and add support to Nova.
