Yes, some of the stuff you usually find in the cmos setup on physical
hardware (boot device order for example) is configured with qemu command
line switches instead.

fw_cfg (shortcut for firmware config) is the name interface used to pass
this information from qemu to the firmware (be it seabios, ovmf or
something else).
