With this we will have yet another hardcoded limit/assumption scattererd
in different places around the code, which we won't know how/if it can
be changed in the future.
I would prefer to have a #define and an explanation on the code for the
specific limit, so people know if/when/how it is safe to change it a few
years from now.
Something like:
hw/acpi/acpi.h:
/* current device naming scheme dosen't support
* more that 256 memory devices
*/
#define ACPI_MAX_RAM_SLOTS 256
hw/acpi/acpi-build.c:build_ssdt():
assert(nr_mem <= ACPI_MAX_RAM_SLOTS)
hw/i386/pc.c:
if (machine->init_args.ram_slots > ACPI_MAX_RAM_SLOTS) {
error_report("unsupported amount of memory slots: %"PRIu64,
machine->init_args.ram_slots);
exit(EXIT_FAILURE);
}
