If it is running under the skiboot firmware (Like on the Talos 
system), it is necessarily using an OPAL interface, either the 
P8 legacy interface (on top of XIVE HW) or the XIVE native 
interface.

That's the file we would be interested in. I suppose this is the same 
image used to boot the Talos ?

It shouldn't be too hard to debug with all the FW images.

Great ! Where can we get the kernel/rootfs images loaded by skiboot ?  
That would make a good acceptance test for the QEMU PowerNV machines.

Thanks,
