Hi,
is there a way with qemu-guest-agent to push infos down to the
hypervisor?

In VMWare one cat set guestinfo variables from within the guest which
can then be retrieved from the Hypervisor. This enables a trusted way to
pass on information for example ssh host keys which we use after
installation.

We try to avoid connecting with -o stricthostkeychecking=no and
insecurities alike. So having an off-channel method of retrieving
ssh keys would be nice.

  Any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic.
