Hi. This patch doesn't do the right thing:
$ ./build/x86/qemu-system-aarch64 -M bang
qemu-system-aarch64: unsupported machine type: "(null)"
Use -machine help to list supported machines
"optarg" is a global, and at the point where we call
select_machine() it isn't valid (we've finished parsing
the options entirely). The thing the error message should
be printing is the local variable "machine_type".
I'll send a patch in a moment.
thanks
