In order to reduce the memory footprint we map into memory the ELF to load using g_mapped_file_new_from_fd() instead of reading each sections. In this way we can share the ELF pages between multiple instances of QEMU. Suggested-by: Dr. David Alan Gilbert <dgilbert@redhat.com> Suggested-by: Paolo Bonzini <pbonzini@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Stefano Garzarella <sgarzare@redhat.com> --- v4: - fix the missing of g_mapped_file_unref() in the success case [Paolo] - fix the rom_add_elf_program() comment [Paolo] v3: - renamed 'GMappedFile *gmf' in 'GMappedFile *mapped_filed' for readability. - passed the GMappedFile* to rom_add_elf_program() to correctly handle the reference count. [Paolo] - set 'data' pointer only if 'file_size > 0' as the original behaviour [check-qtest-ppc64 fails without it] v2: - used g_mapped_file_new_from_fd() with 'writeble' set to 'true', since we can modify the mapped buffer.
