[2] was supposed to be inline patches for QEMU, I'll try to make that a bit clearer. > > diff --git a/target/csky/cpu-param.h b/target/csky/cpu-param.h > > index 80554cc0fc03..9181b602a26f 100644 > > --- a/target/csky/cpu-param.h > > +++ b/target/csky/cpu-param.h > (...) > > diff --git a/target/csky/op_vdsp2.c b/target/csky/op_vdsp2.c > > index a9985a03be33..d953f5ea94fe 100644 > > --- a/target/csky/op_vdsp2.c > > +++ b/target/csky/op_vdsp2.c > > Also, the first two patches look like fixes for the arch itself, they > should really go outside of the nolibc development tree, at least > because they might have to be backported to some stable branches, > or later fixed/reverted in case they wouldn't be optimal. As mentioned above, these are patches for qemu, not Linux. I don't know enough about QEMU or C-SKY to know if these are the generally correct fixes. But they seem to work well enough for nolibc. Guo, if these QEMU patches look reasonable to you I can also submit them. > Aside this, it's been a long time since we last added an architecture > and it's pleasant to see how easy it has become over time, even when > requiring specific settings ;-) Agreed!
