Comment 7 for bug 1952599

Hi there,

I used this[0] script to test the different series. The most relevant parts of it are those parameters for qemu:

-smbios type=0,vendor='Hyper-V test',version=1.2.3 \
-smbios type=1,manufacturer=t1manufacturer,product=t1product,version=t1version,serial=t1serial,uuid=11111111-1111-1111-1111-111111111111,sku=t1sku,family=t1family \

You can read more about them here[1]. In short, it configures the DMI table as follows:

ubuntu@impish:~$ cat /sys/class/dmi/id/product_name
t1product
ubuntu@impish:~$ cat /sys/class/dmi/id/sys_vendor
t1manufacturer
ubuntu@impish:~$ cat /sys/class/dmi/id/bios_vendor
Hyper-V test
ubuntu@impish:~$ cat /sys/class/dmi/id/product_version
t1version

Thus, the old systemd should not detect any virt ("none") and the new one should detect "microsoft"[2].

Test results:
