Trying your example with generic_nano32r6el_page64k_dbg current master

Richard said on IRC "it means that it has issued two goto_tb with the

I built QEMU on a x86_64 host, using the following options:

./configure --disable-user \

 --extra-cflags=-ggdb --enable-debug

Re: [Qemu-devel] [PATCH 1/2] qemu-doc: Add nanoMIPS ISA information

[Stefan Markovic]

Hi Philippe,


I'll investigate further running with  --enable-debug option to fix this 
issue.

In the meantime, we could note enable-debug as 'To Be Done/Work In 
Progress' for nanoMIPS in qemu docs .


Thanks,

Stefan

This isn't just "--enable-debug doesn't work", it means there's a
definite bug because you've tripped an assert (that's only enabled
in the debug config). It's quite possible that the code will misbehave
at runtime even on the non-debug config...

Definitely.

The assert says that two different exits are using the same
TranslationBlock.jmp_target_arg entry.  Which means that, by definition, one of
them must branch to the wrong location.

Of course. Investigation is in progress.

The text itself seems fine to me. If the problem with debug runs is
fixed:
