Remove the Niagara stub implementation from sun4u.c and add a machine,
compatible with Legion simulator from the OpenSPARC T1 project.

The machine uses the firmware supplied with the OpenSPARC T1 project,
http://download.oracle.com/technetwork/systems/opensparc/OpenSPARCT1_Arch.1.5.tar.bz2
in the directory S10image/, and is able to boot the supplied Solaris 10 image.

Note that for compatibility with the naming conventions for SPARC machines
the new machine name is lowercase niagara.

niagara_init() does something naughty, which conflicts with Max's
"[PATCH v6 0/9] block: Drop BDS.filename".  Details inline.

This is the block backend created by the first -drive if=pflash.

The block backend isn't actually used.  It's merely a carrier for a
filename.  Naughty.  Also conflicts with Max's work to kill ->filename.

What you create for it isn't actually a pflash device.  Naughty.

Despite rom_add_file_fixed(), it's RAM, not ROM:

Note that sun4v-md.rom and sun4v-hv.rom aren't ROM, either.

The monkey-patching of dinfo->is_default is to silence the "Orphaned
drive without device" warning.  Naughty.

This use of -drive if=pflash is highly unorthodox.  To suggest better
ways, we need to understand the role of "the virtual ramdisk".  Can you
explain?  How does it work on a physical system?

Is rom_add_file_fixed supposed to mark the memory region read-only? Or
should it be created read-only before calling rom_add_file_fixed?

AFAIK except for simulators it's only used on FPGA boards. It's what
the comment says: a kind of initrd, but it resides outside of the
partition RAM. So, it is a RAM region pre-filled with data in the way
not visible to the guest.

I would have used an -initrd option instead of -pflash, but it
required a -kernel option, and there is no sensible way to use the
-kernel with Solaris.
If QEMU had something like a nvram-disk - it would have worked here the best.

I'm not familiar with the memory API, but the fact that you're getting
RW suggests that you need to mark read-only yourself.  Suggest to
examine similar code elsewhere for additional clues.

Have you considered pressing -bios into service?  -option-rom?  -object
memory-backend-file?  Paolo, any recommendations?

Yeah, I think -bios is closest.  By the way, where do I get all the .rom
files for the Niagara board?  "make check" complains about them.

I think it may sound misleading to a user: it's an optional
(NV)RAM-disk, not a part of a firmware.
Maybe -object memory-backend-file would do it, but it clears the file
on reset, doesn't it?

The machine uses the firmware supplied with the OpenSPARC T1 project,
http://download.oracle.com/technetwork/systems/opensparc/OpenSPARCT1_Arch.1.5.tar.bz2
in the directory S10image/

Also I posted a patch to silence "make check" a couple of days ago.
