Subject: [PATCH 03/15] hw/alpha/dp264: Validate kernel and initrd sizes
Date: Tue, 10 Mar 2026 17:31:43 -0500 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260310-qomify-alpha-v1-3-4375b00a85ff@yodel.dev> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260310-qomify-alpha-v1-0-4375b00a85ff@yodel.dev>
Add an underflow check when calculating the initrd base address.
Warn the user if initrd overlaps with kernel.
