[uml-devel] ARM Status

[uml-devel] ARM Status

[Michael Wolf]

It has been a while so I thought I would re-up the question.   Are there any efforts anywhere to port this to ARM?  If not, are there specific technical blocking issues? 

Thanks,
mwolf

Not really.
If someone *really* wants a arm UML he has to a) invest some money or
b) do it on it's own.

In theory UML on arm should be doable. It may need some thinking
because of VIVT caches.
We'd also need PTRACE_SYSEMU and other ptrace() related stuff.

IIRC Al Viro had some thought regarding an arm port.
Al, can you please enlighten us?
