General Discussion / Re: KVM-Qemu Guest Agent
May 30, 2018, 08:44:28 AM
If the only purpose is to enable a clean shutdown, as moonman said:  It works fine already with qemu using ACPI.  (Edit: I just checked.  Reboot works cleanly as well.)

Just instruct qemu to shut down the opnsense guest, and the guest goes through a proper shutdown procedure.

If there are other things that might be wanted from a guest package, I'm all ears, but currently FreeBSD/OPNsense already supports all of the important virtio drivers and proper shutdown with qemu.  There doesn't seem to be any functionality left to add.
