[systemd-devel] systemd-detect-virt and virtualbox 5.0

[Igor Bukanov]

Hello,

forthcoming VirtualBox 5.0 hypervisor (currently at RC1) supports
paravirtualization using Hyper-V or KVM interfaces. When the latter is
used with a linux guest then systemd-detect-virt prints kvm. I suppose
at least the manual page for systemd-detect-virt should be updated to
indicate that  the command output does not reflect a particular
implementation but names hupervisor technology.

However, the issue then is what to do with ConditionVirtualization=
testing for oracle in unit files. Under kvm mode that gives false
preventing in my case mounting a host directory with config files
using vboxsf module. I suppose I should just deal with that and try to
mount vboxsf share both under kvm and oracle, but perhaps
systemd-detect-virt should be updated to still print oracle even when
VirtualBox uses paravirtualization?
