[Qemu-devel] [PATCH] hw/arm/boot: load device tree to base of DRAM if no


From: Ard Biesheuvel
Subject: [Qemu-devel] [PATCH] hw/arm/boot: load device tree to base of DRAM if no -kernel option was passed
Date: Tue, 26 Aug 2014 17:31:02 +0200

If we are running the 'virt' machine, we may have a device tree blob but no
kernel to supply it to if no -kernel option was passed. In that case, copy it
to the base of DRAM where it can be picked up by a bootloader executing from
NOR flash.
