[systemd-devel] [PATCH 2/2] detect-virt: dmi: look for KVM

[Andrew Jones]

Some guests (ARM, AArch64, x86-RHEL) have 'KVM' in the product name.
Look for that first in order to more precisely report "kvm" when
detecting a QEMU/KVM guest. Without this patch we report "qemu",
even if KVM acceleration is in use on ARM/AArch64 guests.
