[Qemu-devel] Adding new ARM9-based platform in Qemu

[Qemu-devel] Adding new ARM9-based platform in Qemu

[Thomas Bandelier]

Hi,

I'm facing several difficulties to implement such a platform support in 
Qemu.
Concretely, all is about adding a new mobile-phone baseband processor 
emulation in hw directory.
Inspiration from "integratorcp" and other machines is not enough for a 
QEMU-beginner like me...

So 2 questions:
-> Does kind of "development guidelines" documentation exist ?
-> Maybe someone on this list has already accomplished such a task ? - 
In this case, please answer in private.

Thanks in advance,

Thomas

No, I don't think so.
Use the source, Luke.

There are several ARM/PXA PDAs in the tree, as least :
- n800/n810 (OMAP2420) -> nseries.c
- Akita/Spitz/Borzoi/Terrier (PXA270) ->spitz.c
- Palm Tungsten (OMAP310) -> palm.c
Their code really looks like what you what to achieve. They are probably 
easier to understand than Integrator.

Out-of-tree, there is also some code for one mobile platform : Neo1973 
(aka OpenMoko)
their code should be there :
