At present packaging the required DLLs of QEMU executables is a
manual process, and error prone.

Actually build/config-host.mak contains a GLIB_BINDIR variable
which is the directory where glib and other DLLs reside. This
works for both Windows native build and cross-build on Linux.
We can use it as the search directory for DLLs and automate
the whole DLL packaging process.

That seems reasonable to me, although packaging dependencies is not just
about linked DLLs.. There are dynamic stuff, executables, data, legal docs
etc etc. I have no clear picture how is everything really packaged in the
installer tbh (I would recommend msys2 qemu installation at this point)

anyhow, for the patch, as far as I am concerned:

FWIW I wrote a similar script a while back to help package a custom Windows build for 
a client, however I used ldd instead of objdump since it provided the full paths for 
DLLs installed in the msys2/mingw-w64 environment via pacman which were outside the 
QEMU build tree.

Once the complete list of DLLs was obtained, it was simple matter of filtering out 
those DLLs that started with the %WINDIR% prefix before copying them to the final 
distribution directory.


ATB,

Mark.

Yep, ldd also works, but only on Windows native build. objdump can
work on both Windows native and Linux cross builds.

Does this command work in the MSYS2 environment on Windows Arm?

For QEMU Windows, I believe the only supported architecture is x86_64,
correct? Do we want to support (cross) building QEMU for Windows Arm?

Based on your observation, objdump on Linux cross builds on any x86
host works, but not on non x86 host.
Maybe it's a hint to ask for binutils guys to include the PE format
support for objdump Arm by default.

Another thought here: now that python is required to build QEMU, is it possible to 
use a python-based PE parser to extract the dependency information for both Windows 
native and cross builds? For example using something like
