Hello again! I skimmed a bit through the recommended reading list; I would scan them this weekend. I would also like to hack on and understand the code. Are there any small tasks or bug reports that I can start with?
I presume I would have to work with these[1] source repositories not the main qemu git repository, right? I haven't worked with ARM before, but I have knowledge abut computer architectures and microprocessors thanks to the university courses last semester. Should I learn ARM ISA and stuff from the relevant documents? Do I also need a board or can it be emulated on QEMU? Plus there are a five projects in MTTCG - which one is essential/basic in nature and needs to be done? Global TCG State, Shared Cache, Dirty Tracking, Memory Consistency, Instruction Atomicity. Cheers, Subhashish Pradhan 1 - http://qemu-project.org/Features/tcg-multithread#Current_Code P.S. - I didn't get the time(GMT) when you usually hang out on the IRC.
