Test on x86_64 host,not hit this issue. As the error from SLOF suggests the machine has no console. With -nodefaults the user is expected to specify enough devices to form a working system. There are two ways to do this for a papr guest: 1) Specify both a graphics device (VGA) and an input device (USB or, in future, virtio-input). 2) Specify a hypervisor console with -device spapr-vty (neither a graphics nor USB device is necessary). Since papr guests are intended for server usage, it's expected that (2) will be the usual approach. We can't reasonably include a console with -nodefaults, because neither of these options should be treated as an "always present" device. |
