This patchset allows the s390 platform to boot from a specified virtio-ccw-blk device, passed on the commandline.
v1 -> v2 - no loadparm will be used - the virtio devices will not be automatically inserted in the boot order - if there is no boot device in the boot order we will fallback to the first device - assign the boot value in the start block - refactoring of the s390_ipl_cpu function Dominik Dingel (5): S390: Add virtio-blk boot S390: BIOS check for file S390: BIOS create link to src folder for .img file S390: BIOS boot from given device S390: Sync Blob with source changes configure | 1 + hw/s390x/ipl.c | 30 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++--- pc-bios/s390-ccw.img | Bin 9432 -> 17528 bytes pc-bios/s390-ccw/main.c | 25 +++++++++++++++++++------ pc-bios/s390-ccw/start.S | 2 ++ 5 files changed, 49 insertions(+), 9 deletions(-) -- 1.7.9.5
