Basic Device Tree integration
Registered by
Peter Maydell
This blueprint addresses the immediately obvious and non-controversial parts of QEMU/Device Tree integration: basic support for device tree, on par with that already in QEMU for PPC and Microblaze. QEMU's built in boot loader (-kernel/-initrd command line options) needs to accept a devicetree blob from the user, make minimal changes to set the amount of memory, initrd location and so on, and then pass it to the kernel.
