The shix machine was a research project started around 2003 at Télécom Paris. Preliminary support in QEMU was added in 2005 back when the QEMU architecture was less structured than it is now. Unfortunately, the support for the shix machine and its peripherals, such as the TC58128 16MiB flash device, has never been maintained as the research project used the real machine.
This project stopped around 2010 and to the best of my knowledge and after consulting with the original author Alexis Polti, I propose to deprecate it in QEMU as well as the TC58128 flash device which does not implement the QOM model and still contains debug fprintf statements.
