PnvMachineState::fdt might be a more appropriate name. Thanks, C.

Currently any device tree passed with -dtb option in QEMU, was ignored by the PowerNV code. Read and pass the passed -dtb to the kernel, thus enabling easier debugging with custom DTBs. The existing behaviour when -dtb is 'not' passed, is preserved as-is. But when a '-dtb' is passed, it completely overrides any dtb nodes or changes QEMU might have done, such as '-append' arguments to the kernel (which are mentioned in /chosen/bootargs in the dtb), hence add warning when -dtb is being used Signed-off-by: Aditya Gupta <adityag@linux.ibm.com> --- Changelog =========== v1: + use 'g_file_get_contents' and add check for -append & -dtb as suggested by Daniel --- --- hw/ppc/pnv.c | 25 ++++++++++++++++++++++--- 1 file changed, 22 insertions(+), 3 deletions(-)
