Can you just provide a generic solution to the "blob some random data

Well, we do already have that (see -machine firmware=whatever), but...


Yes, right.

I think your binary file here can then just be treated as any other
binary boot product and kept outside of QEMU.
...it's much easier to keep the blob outside QEMU because otherwise
it has to have a git submodule and be built somehow and is generally
a bit of a faff.

Is this FEX stuff actually supported by the upstream Linux kernel?
Googling mostly produced a bunch of stuff from a mid-year flamewar.
I definitely don't think we should add any special support for it in
QEMU if it's just some random thing that isn't going to be upstreamed.


OK, I will use firmware=script.bin option,
thanks!
