QEMU currently exits unexpectedly when trying to introspect the fsl-imx6
and fsl-imx7 devices on systems with many SMP CPUs:
$ echo "{'execute':'qmp_capabilities'}"\
"{'execute':'device-list-properties',"\
" 'arguments':{'typename':'fsl,imx6'}}" \
| arm-softmmu/qemu-system-arm -M virt,accel=qtest -qmp stdio -smp 8
{"QMP": {"version": {"qemu": {"micro": 91, "minor": 11, "major": 2},
"package": "build-all"}, "capabilities": []}}
{"return": {}}
fsl,imx6: Only 4 CPUs are supported (8 requested)
And:
$ echo "{'execute':'qmp_capabilities'}"\
"{'execute':'device-list-properties',"\
" 'arguments':{'typename':'fsl,imx7'}}" \
| arm-softmmu/qemu-system-arm -M raspi2,accel=qtest -qmp stdio
{"QMP": {"version": {"qemu": {"micro": 91, "minor": 11, "major": 2},
"package": "build-all"}, "capabilities": []}}
{"return": {}}
fsl,imx7: Only 2 CPUs are supported (4 requested)
This happens because these devices are doing an exit() from their
instance_init function - which should never be done since instance_init
can be called at any time for device introspection! Fix it by moving
the deadly check into the realize() function instead.
