I've built the latest Qemu, running on ARM (OMAP3530) with
i386-linux-user support. I built from .git because I couldn't
get the cross compile setup to work at all using 0.11.0-rc2 :-(
Anyway, on a simple test it sort of works, but not quite right.
I tried running 'ls'. Here's what I get via Qemu:
root@arm_target:~ qemu-i386 /testing/i386/ls -l /
total 24
drwxr-xr-x 2 996 996 4096 Nov 12 2007 etc
drwxr-xr-x 2 996 996 4096 Nov 12 2007 lib
drwxr-xr-x 4 996 996 4096 Apr 11 2003 usr
Here's what it should look like:
root@arm_target:~ ls -l /
drwxr-xr-x 2 996 996 4096 Jun 25 12:38 bin
drwxr-xr-x 11 root root 3180 Jan 1 2000 dev

drwxr-xr-x 5 996 996 4096 Jun 4 19:56 var
Any ideas what's going on?
n.b. I tested this the other way around (x86 host, arm-linux-user)
and it all seemed to work fine.

Belay that - my previous test that worked was 0.11.0-rc2
The version from .git is broken on all hosts :-(
Any ideas how to fix this or how to actually cross build
using 0.11.0-rc2?

Sorry all, I've now figured out that it _does_ work, just not
like I expected. It seems that without a -L option to qemu,
the executed code runs in something like a 'chroot' jail. Is
this the case? If so, is there any way to let the emulated
program live in the same file system [space] as other applications?
The idea would be to be able to execute some program, e.g. something
available as x86 only, on the ARM target and make the process as
invisible as possible. Can this be made to work?

How would you handle shared libraries?
