Subject: [Qemu-devel] [PATCH 4/5] hw/arm/boot: Clarify why arm_setup_firmware_boot() doesn't set env->boot_info
Date: Thu, 31 Jan 2019 11:22:39 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20190131112240.8395-5-peter.maydell@linaro.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20190131112240.8395-1-peter.maydell@linaro.org>

The code path for booting firmware doesn't set env->boot_info. At
first sight this looks odd, so add a comment saying why we don't.
