[Qemu-devel] [PATCH] scripts/device-crash-test: vmcoreinfo in error_whitelist for ppc64

[Daniel Henrique Barboza]

The device vmcoreinfo depends on the fw_cfg device to work, a device
that isn't available in most ppc64 machines. This makes device-crash-test
spams the following error when running with qemu-system-ppc64:

"INFO: log: qemu-system-ppc64: -device vmcoreinfo: vmcoreinfo device
requires fw_cfg with DMA"

To fix it, this patch adds the following ppc64 machines into the
error_whitelist for the vmcoreinfo device:

- pseries.*
- 40p
- bamboo
- g3beige
- mac99
- mpc8544ds
- powernv
- ppce500
- prep
- virtex-ml507

After this patch, the only ppc64 machine that reports error on the
vmcoreinfo device is the 'none' type.
