QEMU Direct Linux Boot

Use this workflow when QEMU should load a kernel directly, usually with -kernel, -dtb, -initrd, and -append.

Primitive Composition

  1. Use qemu-flow-plan.
  2. Use qemu-source-provenance for kernel, DTB, initrd, rootfs, and QEMU binary.
  3. Use qemu-boot-run to construct and run the command.
  4. Use qemu-model-verification to report the boot milestone.
  5. Use qemu-debug if the run hangs or faults.
