Hello,
I'm trying to specify machine type using the config file; for example:
[machine]
type = "pc-i440fx-2.1"
It seems to be ignored:
qom-get path=/machine property=type
{ u'return': u'pc-i440fx-2.2-machine'}
It does work with the command line:
-M "pc-i440fx-2.1"
qom-get path=/machine property=type
{ u'return': u'pc-i440fx-2.1-machine'}
Is it considered as a bug? I am using qemu-2.2
Thanks,
--
William

Reproduced.

Yes. Thanks for reporting it.
Broken since main()'s case QEMU_OPTION_machine doesn't just parse its
option argument with qemu_opts_parse(), it also implements parameter
"type". Copying Marcel because "he touched it, he owns it".

yes indeed, the type option is also not working, and there was an older
report about it

I'll have a look at this, sure.
