Subject: [Qemu-devel] Rockbox Emulation
Date: Fri, 23 May 2008 00:38:17 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <536b0bf70805222138q1c9b33ddifd3bd3dab3d07324@mail.gmail.com> (raw)
As part of Google Summer of Code (http://code.google.com/soc/) I have
been chosen (by rockbox [http://www.rockbox.org]) to improve ARM
virtualization. I believe that QEMU has come the farthest in this
field (correct me if I'm wrong). Basically I intend to add more
hardware support for things like the LCD, ATA Controller, and other
things that could be found on an mp3 player. My goal is to be able to
run rockbox through QEMU as if it were running on the mp3 player
itself, and also to be able to run the proprietary OS on it also.
I have tried to run rockbox on QEMU just to see how far it would get.
So far all it does is show a blank screen (I have confirmed that the
arm-test works correctly). So I am wondering if the kernel is actually
running or not. Is it possible that it is running, but not displaying
anything because it is not emulating the correct LCD?
Anyways, thanks for reading. Please let me know if you have any advice
for me. I'll be happy to keep you informed on my progress,
Taylor Killian
