[Qemu-devel] SH4 softmmu port still functionnal?

[Qemu-devel] SH4 softmmu port still functionnal?

[Christophe Conil]

Hi,
I'm quite new to qemu, and i'm getting interested in the port of an OS 
to SH4. I rapidly tried to get sh4-softmmu qemu working (with the 
files/bootloader provided by Samuel Tardieu and Alexis Polti), but 
without any results. (I use the 0.9.0 version).

$ ./qemu-system-sh4 -kernel nothing  -nographic -S
Initializing CPU
Allocating ROM
Allocating SDRAM 1
Allocating SDRAM 2
shix_init: load BIOS 'shix_bios.bin'
no serial port associated to SH7750 second serial port
loaded 643456 bytes for shix_linux_nand.bin into flash
initialization terminated
qemu-system-sh4: /home/cconil/qemu-workspace/qemu/hw/sh7750.c:203: 
serial1_event: Assertion `0' failed.
Serial port associated.Aborted

I saw Paul Brook's answer in the mail archive, that SH4 port is quite 
functionnal, so am I missing something? Is he talking about the 
user-mode sh4 port? Or is it possible that the new qemu release broke 
some compatibility?

Thanks,
Christophe

I was running sh2 binaries with the usermode emulator.
I have never tried sh4 binaries or the system emulation bits.
