"Number of anything" should always have type "unsigned", or (even
better) size_t.

Okay, I don't recall the details of what I'm going to recommend. :)
Please use the location API to tie the error message to the offending
QemuOpts. I've done that only once before, but it didn't turn out to be
a catastrophe, so now I'm recommending it to you as well. See commit
637a5acb; specifically the code around the "Location" object.

I'm not a big fan of reallocs with linearly increasing size (plus glib
should provide a list type anyway), but it's probably not too bad in
this case.

Urgh. :)
The loop variable should match the type of fw_cfg_num_options. It does
now, but after you change that to unsigned or size_t, this should be
updated too.
Second, filesize as "int"? :) Hm, okay, get_image_size() returns an int.
No comment on that. :)

How about calling g_file_get_contents() instead? That's what I used in
load_image_to_fw_cfg(), in "hw/arm/boot.c" (commit 07abe45c). It
certainly beats the get_image_size() + load_image() pair.
(Function read_splashfile() in this same source file uses
g_file_get_contents() already.)
In addition, I see no reason why loading the file contents couldn't be
moved into fw_cfg_option_add() at once. That way you'll get any
g_file_get_contents()-related errors too while the associated QemuOpts
object is still available, and then you can report those errors too with
a reference to the offending option (see Location again).
This idea would require replacing the "file" member of "FWCfgOption"
with two new fields, "size" and "contents".

So this is why you need to separate stashing the filenames from actually
linking the blobs into fw_cfg. Makes sense.
And, according to the suggestion above, fw_cfg_options_insert() would
only consist of a loop that calls fw_cfg_add_file(). That looks very
pleasing to me. :) (Well, I'm suggesting it, duh.) You can't deny it
would closely match the calls just below:

A few words on the "name" property would be appreciated, like
"@var{name} determines the name of the corresponding entry in the fw_cfg
file directory".

The last argument seems wrong: if you set permit_abbrev to zero, then
"implied_opt_name" will have no effect (because the user will be forced
to spell out "name=..."). So, for consistency, you should either drop
implied_opt_name, and keep this last argument 0, or keep
implied_opt_name, and pass 1 as the last argument. (And in the latter
case, "-fw_cfg etc/foo,file=bar" should work.)

Structurally this looks sane to me.
Perhaps the suggestion to move the file loading from fw_cfg_init1() --
ie. device initialization -- to the earlier option parsing phase will
appease Gerd too :) But, admittedly, I don't know what the "existing
fw_cfg init order issues" that he referenced are.
Thanks!
