Subject: [Qemu-devel] python scripts
Date: Wed, 31 Aug 2011 19:20:14 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <4E5EEBDE.2020806@mips.com> (raw)

I recently made a major addition (about 150 new instructions) to MIPS 
QEMU to add the DSP instructions for Mips  and Micro MIPS processors.

To make this process simpler and less error prone, I generated a large 
amount of the code and framework from python scripts. This code is much 
easier to produce and maintain.

I.e. python scripts producing C code and header files.

I would like to check the python scripts along with the changes to 
autoconf into QEMU and have the build process produce the C code.

We have another large project where we want to use this same technique 
again.

Is there any big objection to this?

The python is very simple and would probably work with python version 0.1.
Of course the configure script can test for a proper python being present.
