We need to create the actual devices in forwards order (so that devices created on the qemu command line populate the transports lowest address first) and then create the dtb nodes in reverse order (so that the transports appear in the final dtb lowest address first). Ugh. Given this plus the fact that you still need a kernel patch to get the thing to boot at all [would anybody on the kernel side like to pick up that particular ball?], I'm leaning toward not putting this in 1.7 now. -- PMM _______________________________________________ kvmarm mailing list kvmarm@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.cs.columbia.edu/cucslists/listinfo/kvmarm
