While debugging an issue, I ran across something in the initialization sequence of hardware accelerators. Being a noobie qemu developer, it's hard to tell if I simply don't understand how AccelClass works or if this is a bug.
The init_machine function for hardware accelerators is passed a MachineState pointer via configure_accelerator(), but several elements of the structure (e.g. ram_size, maxram_size, etc.) are not initialized until well after this call. Should hardware accelerator modules not look at MachineState and instead grab the global versions of variables like ram_size? TIA. --chuck
