Thread-topic: [PATCH 1/5] Add guest_os_type config option
Hi Alex:
        Thanks for your complement. 
        My concern is the u64 type is not enough if length of OS name is more 
than eight words. But we may use abbreviation to deal
with it. So this is ok for me.

Good good study,day day up ! ^_^
