The ACPI SPCR (Serial Port Console Redirection) table allows firmware
to specify a preferred serial console device to the operating system.
On ARM64 systems, Linux by default respects this table: even if the
kernel command line does not include a hardware serial console (e.g.,
"console=ttyAMA0"), the kernel still register the serial device
referenced by SPCR as a printk console.
While this behavior is standard-compliant, it can lead to situations
where guest console behavior is influenced by platform firmware rather
than user-specified configuration. To make guest console behavior more
predictable and under user control, this patch introduces a machine
option to explicitly disable SPCR table exposure:
-machine spcr=off
By default, the option is enabled (spcr=on), preserving existing
behavior. When disabled, QEMU will omit the SPCR table from the guest's
ACPI namespace, ensuring that only consoles explicitly declared in the
kernel command line are registered.
