This patch causes qemu-system-ppc to fail to load ppc44x_defconfig:
$ make -skj"$(nproc)" ARCH=powerpc CROSS_COMPILE=powerpc-linux- O=out/ppc distclean ppc44x_defconfig zImage
$ timeout --foreground 30s unbuffer \ qemu-system-ppc \ -machine bamboo \ -no-reboot \ -append "console=ttyS0" \ -display none \ -initrd ../../cbl/github/boot-utils/images/ppc32/rootfs.cpio \ -kernel out/ppc/arch/powerpc/boot/zImage \ -m 128m \ -nodefaults \ -serial mon:stdio qemu-system-ppc: could not load kernel 'out/ppc/arch/powerpc/boot/zImage'
$ ls out/ppc/arch/powerpc/boot/zImage out/ppc/arch/powerpc/boot/zImage
Is this expected? Is there some other config or machine that we should be testing instead?
Cheers, Nathan
