From: Thomas Huth Date: Thu, 24 Aug 2017 07:41:33 +0000 (+0200) Subject: hw/nvram/spapr_nvram: Device can not be created by the users X-Git-Url: http://git.maquefel.me/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=280503ee9d7833a793770d732dda5358659825e9;p=qemu.git hw/nvram/spapr_nvram: Device can not be created by the users Trying to add a spapr-nvram device currently aborts QEMU like this: $ ppc64-softmmu/qemu-system-ppc64 -device spapr-nvram qemu-system-ppc64: hw/ppc/spapr_rtas.c:407: spapr_rtas_register: Assertion `!rtas_table[token].name' failed. Aborted (core dumped) This NVRAM device registers RTAS calls during its realize function and thus can only be used once - and that's internally from spapr.c. So let's mark the device with user_creatable = false to avoid that the users can crash their QEMU this way.
