[Libguestfs] [PATCH v2 0/7] tests/qemu: Add program for tracing and analyzing boot times.

I gave this series a spin, along a custom QEMU, and `supermin` from Git,
for my `libguestfs-test-tool` itself fails with:

    "Could not open option rom 'linuxboot_dma.bin': No such file or
    directory"

How I went about:

(1) Build QEMU with
    https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/qemu-devel/2016-01/msg05891.html
    -- Add optionrom compatible with fw_cfg DMA version

    Build QEMU with the above patch:

      $ w3m https://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/575578/mbox \
         > add-optionrom-compatible-with-fw_cfg-DMA-version.patch
      $ git am -3 \
         ~/add-optionrom-compatible-with-fw_cfg-DMA-version.patch
      # sudo dnf builddep qemu -y
      $ ~/src/qemu/configure --target-list=x86_64-softmmu
      $ make -j4

(2) Build 'supermin' from Git

(3) Build 'libguestfs' from Rich's fork
    https://github.com/rwmjones/libguestfs/commits/master/

    Configure libguestfs (from Rich's fork) with `supermin` built from 
    Git in step (2):

      $ SUPERMIN=~/src/supermin/src/supermin ./configure
      $ ./bootstrap && ./autogen.sh && make

    Compile libguestfs:
    
      $ ./autogen.sh
      $ make -j22

(4) Use the QEMU built in step (1), build and run the 'boot-analysis'
    program from libguestfs test suite:

      $ export LIBGUESTFS_HV=$HOME/build/qemu-build/x86_64-softmmu/qemu-system-x86_64
      $ make -C tests/qemu boot-analysis
      $ ./run tests/qemu/boot-analysis -v


One and a half minute passes, nothing is printed on the screen. . .

Okay, let's try 'libguestfs-test-tool' (untruncated output attached), it
fails with:
