Cloud-init uses a DMI value that is set on all Azure hosts to detect that it’s running on Azure, and another DMI parameter for the VM unique ID which it uses as the instance ID. https://git.launchpad.net/cloud-init/tree/tools/ds-identify#n766 It reads both these values via sysfs, so we need kernel support for exporting these variables via /sys.
