[Qemu-devel] QEMU 0.5.2

[Fabrice Bellard]

Hi,

QEMU 0.5.2 is out. A statically linked binary distribution for i386 is 
also available. There are still many known problems (see the TODO list 
!), but more OSes are working.

version 0.5.2:

   - improved soft MMU speed (assembly functions and specializing)
   - improved multitasking speed by avoiding flushing TBs when
     switching tasks
   - improved qemu-fast speed
   - improved self modifying code handling (big performance gain in
     softmmu mode).
   - fixed IO checking
   - fixed CD-ROM detection (win98 install CD)
   - fixed addseg real mode bug (GRUB boot fix)
   - added ROM memory support (win98 boot)
   - fixed 'call Ev' in case of paging exception
   - updated the script 'qemu-binfmt-conf.sh' to use QEMU automagically
     when launching executables for the supported target CPUs.
   - PowerPC system emulation update (Jocelyn Mayer)
   - PC floppy emulation and DMA fixes (Jocelyn Mayer)
   - polled mode for PIC (Jocelyn Mayer)
   - fixed PTE dirty bit handling
   - fixed xadd same reg bug
   - fixed cmpxchg exception safeness
   - access to virtual memory in gdb stub
   - task gate and NT flag fixes
   - eflags optimisation fix for string operations

Has anyone attempted to compile this puppy on the ipaq cluster at handhelds.org?
