You are right, it looks like some work, and it would be lower priority. I'll just disable it for Xtensa for now. >>> Besides those issues, I'm just reminding you that we are still very >>> interested in having a Qemu Xtensa configuration to be able to run the >>> Xtensa systems we generate with Buildroot. >> I'm juggling between kernel, uClibc, and buildroot, so, please allow me >> some more time. > Sure, no problem! How do you actually build qemu inside buildroot, or is this not supported? I couldn't find any config option to enable it. Also note that the current kernel version (3.6) doesn't have all required patches, we are 'forward-focusing' at the moment, so things will be easier in the future. >> Regarding patches, should I send them to you and cc buildroot, or only >> to the mailing list?
