We agree so far but ... how to do it?
I never used this API, does that makes sense?
if (!dinfo) {
QemuOpts *opts;
opts = qemu_opts_create(NULL, "spi-flash", 1, &error_abort);
qdict_put_str(opts, "format", "null-co");
qdict_put_int(opts, BLOCK_OPT_SIZE, 64 * MiB);
qdict_put_bool(opts, NULL_OPT_ZEROES, false); // XXX
dinfo = drive_new(opts, IF_MTD, &error_abort);
qemu_opts_del(opts);
}
We should probably add a public helper for that.
'XXX' because NOR flashes erase content is when hardware bit
is set, so it would be more useful to return -1/0xff... rather
than zeroes.
