Hi All,
It seems QEMU has support for ColdFire, has anyone here been using it?
It seems it is a little broken when trying to run the very most recent
linux kernels. Here are some patches that will fix that:
http://lists.nongnu.org/archive/html/qemu-devel/2012-09/msg01954.html
http://lists.nongnu.org/archive/html/qemu-devel/2012-09/msg02099.html
http://lists.nongnu.org/archive/html/qemu-devel/2012-09/msg01956.html
Those patches applied to the latest qemu git tree, though I suspect
they should apply to v1.2 qemu source without too much trouble.
Then you can emulate a ColdFire M5208EVB board and run current kernels
on it. I have been running linux-3.5 kernels.
If you don't want to start up with gdb support then you need to generate
a kernel object that contains an initrd (which is not normally generated
by the uClinux-dist build system). With that you then simply run it
with:
qemu-system-m68k -nographic -machine mcf5208evb -kernel vmlinux
Could be kinda useful.
Regards
Greg
