Re: [Qemu-devel] [Qemu-ppc] [GIT PULL for qemu-pseries REPOST] pseries: Update SLOF firmware image

[Aravinda Prasad <aravinda@linux.vnet.ibm.com>]

Alexey/David,

With the SLOF changes, QEMU cannot resize the RTAS blob. Resizing is
required for FWNMI support which extends the RTAS blob to include an
error log upon a machine check.

The check to valid RTAS buffer fails in the guest because the rtas-size
updated in QEMU is not reflecting in the guest.

Any workaround for this?

The following FWNMI work which is under review modifies the rtas-size to
accommodate the error log:
