A set of Python scripts for packaging virtio-win Windows drivers into ISO images and RPM packages for KVM/QEMU virtualization. The generated RPM matches the RHEL virtio-win RPM file layout and published artifacts are hosted on fedorapeople.org.

Use cases

  • build a virtio-win driver ISO for Windows guests on KVM
  • package virtio-win drivers into an RPM matching RHEL layout
  • download stable or latest virtio-win ISO and guest tools
  • set up automated packaging of Windows paravirtualized drivers
  • produce signed driver builds for Windows VMs
  • publish virtio-win builds with static download URLs

When to choose

  • you maintain a KVM/QEMU virtualization stack and need Windows guest drivers
  • you want to rebuild or customize the virtio-win driver ISO or RPM
  • you need reproducible packaging of virtio-win drivers outside RHEL

When to avoid

  • you just need to download prebuilt virtio-win ISOs or guest tools
  • you need WHQL-signed drivers, which require a paid RHEL subscription
  • you are not working with Windows guests on virtualization platforms
