[PATCH] hw/core/machine: diagnose wrapping of maxmem
Posted by Daniel P. Berrangé 1 week, 2 days ago
The 'maxmem' parameter parsed on the command line is held in uint64_t
and then assigned to the MachineState field that is 'ram_addr_t'. This
assignment will wrap on 32-bit hosts, silently changing the user's
config request if it were over-sized.

Improve the existing diagnositics for validating 'size', and add the
same diagnostics for 'maxmem'

With this patch, for the failing test_mem_addr_space test in 32-bit, we get:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/builds/qemu/tests/functional/test_mem_addr_space.py", line
256, in test_phybits_low_tcg_q35_71_amd_41bits
