[Qemu-devel] Ask about patching our MIPS work to Qemu main branch

Hi, there,


We are software engineers of Loongson.Inc，a computer company design 
and produce MIPS-compatible computers located in China。


Currently we use Qemu to run X86-64 network programs such as snort on MIPS platform.
During Qemu running on MIPS, we found some Qemu bugs such as pagesize,
memory access, multi-thread, etc.  And now we have fixed some of them.


We wonder if these bug patch could port to Qeme official main branch, 
so we write to ask your advice.


Best Regards~

We love bug fixes!  Please send us yours.

It's a bit intimidating, I'm afraid.  Just make an effort to follow it,
and don't worry about screwing up some detail.  Everyone does.

Your patches don't have to be perfect.  Make an effort to produce solid,
readable work, and we'll find the necessary improvements together in
review.

Even when a patch is totally wrong, it can still be a valuable bug
report.  So don't sit on them, send them out :)
