+
+Hexagon System Architecture
+===========================
+
+The hexagon architecture has some unique elements which are described here.
+
+Interrupts
+----------
+When interrupts arrive at a Hexagon DSP core, they are priority-steered to
+be handled by an eligible hardware thread with the lowest priority.
+
+Memory
+------
+Each hardware thread has an ``SSR.ASID`` field that contains its Address
+Space Identifier.  This value is catenated with a 32-bit virtual address -
+the MMU can then resolve this extended virtual address to a physical address.
+
+TLBs
+----
+The format of a TLB entry is shown below.
+
+.. note::
+    The Small Core DSPs have a different TLB format which is not yet
+    supported.

+* RWX: read-, write-, execute-, enable bits.  Indicates if user programs
+  are permitted to read/write/execute the given page.
+* U: indicates if user programs can access this page.
+
+Scheduler
+---------
+The Hexagon system architecture has a feature to assist the guest OS
+task scheduler.  The guest OS can enable this feature by setting
+``SCHEDCFG.EN``.  The ``BESTWAIT`` register is programmed by the guest OS
+to indicate the priority of the highest priority task waiting to run on a
+hardware thread.  The reschedule interrupt is triggered when any hardware
+thread's priority in ``STID.PRIO`` is worse than the ``BESTWAIT``.  When
+it is triggered, the ``BESTWAIT.PRIO`` value is reset to 0x1ff.
+
+HVX Coprocessor
+---------------
+The Supervisor Status Register field ``SSR.XA`` binds a DSP hardware thread
+to one of the eight possible HVX contexts.  The guest OS is responsible for
+managing this resource.

+
+Hexagon Machines
+================
+
+Hexagon DSPs are suited to various functions and generally appear in a
+"DSP subsystem" of a larger system-on-chip (SoC).
+
+Hexagon DSPs are often included in a subsystem that looks like the diagram
+below.  Instructions are loaded into DDR before the DSP is brought out of
+reset and the first instructions are fetched from DDR via the EVB/reset vector.
+
+In a real system, a TBU/SMMU would normally arbitrate AXI accesses but
+we don't have a need to model that for QEMU.
+
+Hexagon DSP cores use simultaneous multithreading (SMT) with as many as 8
+hardware threads.

+Components
+----------
+Other than l2vic and HVX, the components below are not implemented in QEMU.
+
+* L2VIC: the L2 vectored interrupt controller.  Supports 1024 input
+  interrupts, edge- or level-triggered.  The core ISA has system registers
+  ``VID``, ``VID1`` which read through to the L2VIC device.
+* QTimer: ARMSSE-based programmable timer device. Its interrupts are
+  wired to the L2VIC.  System registers ``TIMER``, ``UTIMER`` read
+  through to the QTimer device.
+* QDSP6SS: DSP subsystem features, accessible to the entire SoC, including
+  DSP NMI, watchdog, reset, etc.
+* CSR: Configuration/Status Registers.
+* TCM: DSP-exclusive tightly-coupled memory.  This memory can be used for
+  DSPs when isolated from DDR and in some bootstrapping modes.
+* VTCM: DSP-exclusive vector tightly-coupled memory.  This memory is accessed
+  by some HVX instructions.
+* HVX: the vector coprocessor supports 64 and 128-byte vector registers.
+  64-byte mode is not implemented in QEMU.
+
+
+Bootstrapping
+-------------
+Hexagon systems do not generally have access to a block device.  So, for
+QEMU the typical use case involves loading a binary or ELF file into memory
+and executing from the indicated start address::
+
+    $ qemu-system-hexagon -kernel ./prog -append 'arg1 arg2'
+
+Semihosting
+-----------
+Hexagon supports a semihosting interface similar to other architectures'.
+The ``trap0`` instruction can activate these semihosting calls so that the
+guest software can access the host console and filesystem.  Semihosting
+is not yet implemented in QEMU hexagon.
