2023-05-16Add information how to fix common build error on Windows in symlink-install-treeMateusz Krawczuk1-0/+3
By default, Windows doesn't allow to create soft links for user account and only administrator is allowed to do this. To fix this problem you have to raise your permissions or enable Developer Mode, which available since Windows 10. Additional explanation when build fails will allow developer to fix the problem on his computer faster.

2023-01-06meson: accept relative symlinks in "meson introspect --installed" dataPaolo Bonzini1-1/+0
When installing shared libraries, as is the case for libvfio-user.so, Meson will include relative symbolic links in the output of "meson introspect --installed": { "libvfio-user.so": "/usr/local/lib64/libvfio-user.so", ... } In the case of scripts/symlink-install-tree.py, this will be a symbolic link to a symbolic link but, in any case, there is no issue in creating it.

2022-07-13cutils: Introduce bundle mechanismAkihiko Odaki1-0/+33
Developers often run QEMU without installing. The bundle mechanism allows to look up files which should be present in installation even in such a situation. It is a general mechanism and can find any files in the installation tree. The build tree will have a new directory, qemu-bundle, to represent what files the installation tree would have for reference by the executables. Note that it abandons compatibility with Windows older than 8. The extended support for the prior version, 7 ended more than 2 years ago, and it is unlikely that someone would like to run the latest QEMU on such an old system.
