[Qemu-devel] [PATCH 0/3] Arm: honour CPU address space for image loads

Posted by Peter Maydell 7 years, 8 months ago

This patchset makes the Arm code for loading kernels, initrds,
etc etc honour the CPU's address space rather than loading
everything via the system address space. This makes a difference
when the image is being loaded to memory or via an alias memory
region which is implemented by an SoC container object (and
which therefore doesn't appear in the system address space).

I needed this in particular for M profile, but I'd written all
the boot.c changes before I remembered that M profile doesn't
use that code at all :-)

thanks
