To save the FDT blob we have the '-machine dumpdtb=<file>' property.
With this property set, the machine saves the FDT in <file> and exit.
The created file can then be converted to plain text dts format using
'dtc'.

There's nothing particularly sophisticated into saving the FDT that
can't be done with the machine at any state, as long as the machine has
a valid FDT to be saved.

The 'dumpdtb' command receives a 'filename' paramenter and, if a valid
FDT is available, it'll save it in a file 'filename'. In short, this is
a '-machine dumpdtb' that can be fired on demand via QMP/HMP.

A valid FDT consists of a FDT that was created using libfdt being
retrieved via 'current_machine->fdt' in device_tree.c. This condition is
met by most FDT users in QEMU.

On spapr at least, the fdt can change at runtime (due to hotplugs).
So we need to think about concurrency between fdt updates and dumping
it with this command.  I'm assuming it's protected by the BQL, but I'm
wondering if we should outright state that somewhere for clarity.

Your assumption is right. It is protected by BQL since it's always executed
in-band. To not hold BQL we would need to declare an extra flag "allow-oob"
to execute the command out-of-band.

I'll mention in the commit msg that we're holding BQL. I'll do the same for
the 'info fdt' commit msg.


Thanks,


Daniel
