This will only be available in KVM guests, so while correct and useful
there will only help for nested cases. I was concerned about that, but
Dimitri and I discussed that on IRC and he was aware of that and the
intention is indeed just for nested.
That said while I think the overall share of systems making use of
that will be low it seems ok to me.
Thanks for also pushing a similar change to systemd [1], that way down
the road old-libvirt+new-systemd setups will still benefit as
machine-id is a fallback for the system UUID.
P.S. do you have (or need) a test build of libvirt with the change
setting the host-id accordingly to show the function here?
