An access is also provided to the Key-Value Pair exchange interface via pvbus(4). All keys are associated to one of several key pools: Auto, Guest, External or Guest/Parameters. It's possible to modify values of keys in the Auto pool as well as set new keys in the Guest pool with hostctl(8). The Host provides its read-only keys in External and Guest/Parameters pools.
