Generally in QEMU the 'board' (inherits from MachineState) is a different object from the SoC (inherits from DeviceState). This code seems to think they are the same thing. > if (!state) { > error_report("failed to convert from the parent MachineState to > derived MySocState"); > exit(1); > } > > /* > * Setup the memories. > */ > memory_region_init_ram(>ram, > OBJECT(state), > "mysoc.ram", > mysoc_memmap[MYSOCK_DEV_RAM].size, > _abort); The 'owner' argument to memory_region_init_ram() must be either NULL or something that inherits from DeviceState. We use the former for memory regions created by boards, and the latter for memory regions created by SoC models. The (cast) MachineState object you are passing is neither, so you end up with an assertion when the code tries to do something to it that only works with a DeviceState. (I'm not sure why this didn't assert in memory_region_init_ram() when it does the DEVICE() cast on the owner pointer.) thanks -- PMM
Crash in memory_region_init_ram call chain, when --bios command line parameter is presented.
I would appreciate any clue about the crash. When I start my custom SoC emulation and the –bios command line parameter us presented, the QEMU processes crashes before the custom code even tries to load the firmware. It crashes in the *memory_region_init_ram* call chain with the follow stack: #0 0x5613255a6932 in object_class_dynamic_cast_assert (class=0x56006f6b756b, typename=0x5613259e94ee "bus", file=0x5613259e94a8 "/project/users/ashevandin/qemu-speedata/include/hw/qdev-core.h", line=217, func=0x5613259e9828 <__func__.18> "BUS_GET_CLASS") at ../qom/object.c:963 #1 0x56132559e3a3 in BUS_GET_CLASS (obj=0x561326fd7830) at /project/users/ashevandin/qemu-speedata/include/hw/qdev-core.h:217 #2 0x56132559f434 in qdev_get_dev_path (dev=0x561326d27800) at ../hw/core/qdev.c:422 #3 0x5613254f489d in qemu_ram_set_idstr (new_block=0x56132710acc0, name=0x5613270e1760 "speedata.callisto.ddr1", dev=0x561326d27800) at ../softmmu/physmem.c:1766 #4 0x5613250a1069 in vmstate_register_ram (mr=0x561326d27950, dev=0x561326d27800) at ../migration/savevm.c:3104 #5 0x5613254ee0c8 in memory_region_init_ram (mr=0x561326d27950, owner=0x561326d27800, name=0x561325983052 "speedata.callisto.ddr1", size=4294967296, errp=0x5613262c6178 ) at ../softmmu/memory.c:3543 It seems that the code domain where the crash occurs is unrelated with the –bios command line parameter processing.

Suitable API do build the custom SoC emulation
I wonder if there is any other way to build emulation for the custom SoC except using QEMU C API? I mean, the C API the one, that is used in a lot of examples under /hw folder. The other way – the high level abstractions – based: XML, Json, Python etc. The custom hardware that I need to emulate: * A55 CPU * different kind of memories (RAM, SRAM, ROM) with some custom memory layout; * UART * ARM TF, BL1 loading (-bios command line parameter) Regards, Aleksey
Re: Crash in memory_region_init_ram call chain, when --bios command line parameter is presented.
Thank you for your answer. I belive that 'owner' parameter is initialized: 1) without --bios parameter the code does not crash; 2) I check the the owner parameter before; Here is the fragment of my code: static void my_soc_init(MachineState *machine) { MySocState* state = OBJECT_CHECK(MySocState, machine, TYPE_MY_SOC); if (!state) { error_report("failed to convert from the parent MachineState to derived MySocState"); exit(1); } /* * Setup the memories. */ memory_region_init_ram(>ram, OBJECT(state), "mysoc.ram", mysoc_memmap[MYSOCK_DEV_RAM].size, _abort); Regards, Aleksey מאת: Peter Maydell נשלח: יום שלישי 14 פברואר 2023 13:07 אל: Alyosha Shevandin עותק: qemu-discuss@nongnu.org נושא: Re: Crash in memory_region_init_ram call chain, when --bios command line parameter is presented.
