I've posted updated Qemu patches on ftp://ftp.linux-mips.org/pub/linux/mips/qemu http://www.linux-mips.org/wiki/index.php/Qemu Enhancements over last week's patches: o The count/compare interrupt will now properly be delivered. o mfc0 will now return the proper value for the EXL and ERL flags o eret will now consider the value of ERL and EXL. o i8259 PIC is now properly cascaded to a CPU interrupt. o An ISA NE2000 card will now be emulated. o The CPU's random register now considers the value of the wired register The new kernel patch is against the latest Linux/MIPS CVS kernel du jour 2.6.12-rc6 and has been updated to match Qemu's improvments. Known bugs: o ll/sc don't use a ll_bit like the real hardware thus right now any atomic functions aren't really atomic. o ll/sc really should be watching a physical not a virtual address or they won't do much useful on any kind of shared memory structure. o MIPS documentation documents the lladdr register to contain the virtual address of the location being watched but about every implementation since the R4000 actually keeps the physical address there - and documents that as an erratum even though it actually the sensible thing to do. We should do the same. Fortunately nothing that I know of actually relies on the content of the lladdr register, so this one is cosmetic. Last, not least, this is what you've been waiting for: [root@dea qemu-mips]# mips-softmmu/qemu-system-mips -kernel ~ralf/src/linux/linux-cvs/arch/mips/boot/vmlinux.bin -m 16 -nographic nb_nics = 1 Connected to host network interface: tun0 /etc/qemu-ifup tun0 + ifconfig tun0 up + brctl addbr qnet device qnet already exists; can't create bridge with the same name + brctl addif qnet tun0 + ifconfig qnet 172.20.0.1 (qemu) mips_r4k_init: start mips_r4k_init: load BIOS '/usr/local/share/qemu/mips_bios.bin' size 131072 Linux version 2.6.12-rc5 (ralf@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx) (gcc version 3.4.3) #257 Mon Jun 13 02:58:23 BST 2005 CPU revision is: 00018000 Determined physical RAM map: memory: 01000000 @ 00000000 (usable) On node 0 totalpages: 4096 DMA zone: 4096 pages, LIFO batch:1 Normal zone: 0 pages, LIFO batch:1 HighMem zone: 0 pages, LIFO batch:1 Built 1 zonelists Kernel command line: console=ttyS0 debug ip=172.20.0.2:172.20.0.1::255.255.0.0 Primary instruction cache 2kB, physically tagged, 2-way, linesize 16 bytes.
