Hi, Does the libvirt support the bios delay ? I mean that after set a special number of seconds or minutes, when the domain starts, the bios will delay after the time I set
Is there a qemu option that affects this? I'm not aware of one, off the top of my head, which means that libvirt does not expose one directly. If there _is_ such a qemu option, then you can access it via <qemu:commandline> xml while waiting for libvirt to implement official xml to support this feature.
Taking a step back, I'm not even sure what you are trying to accomplish with a delay. Perhaps it is sufficient if you use virDomainStartFlags with VIR_DOMAIN_START_PAUSED (or virsh start --paused) to request that a guest be created without running it, then at your choice of delay, resume the guest? But that's not a BIOS delay.
