package mirage-bootvar

v1.0.1 2024-05-20

• Prefix all modules (backend / parse_argv) with Mirage_bootvar to avoid potential conflicts (#2 @hannesm) -- observed while building qubes-mirage-firewall which also depends on mirage-net-xen which provides a module named Backend.

v1.0.0 2024-05-16

• parse-argv, mirage-bootvar-unix, mirage-bootvar-solo5, and mirage-bootvar-xen have been merged into the single mirage-bootvar package. This uses dune variants to select the concrete implementation. The selection is done by the mirage tool which inspects the "target" option in mirage configure and outputs the desired ocamlfind sublibrary into the dune.build file.

• The main logic is provided by the Mirage_bootvar module, while the implementation to retrieve the boot parameters is provided by the dune variant backend, and implemented by mirage-bootvar.unix, mirage-bootvar.solo5, and mirage-bootvar.xen #1
