Hi,

I have some questions about the qemu's bios. How does the QEMU load the
binary files bios.bin and vgabios-cirrus.bin? Which function or code file
need I to pay more attention to?

For the loading of vgabios-cirrus.bin and bios.bin, I just trace them into
the same funciton rom_add_file() in hw/loader.c. Is it the right function,
which loads the bioses?

And then another question, how qemu give the control to bios when the bios
file is loaded? Maybe this question is not in the scope of qemu, however,
can you give me some cue point.

Any reply are appreciated. Thanks.

Gavin
