Each machine can add specific support for that (for example a -cpu option). It is likely to come at least for the PC machines.

I add suggest one more parameter to cpu_mips_set_model() to specify optional features. A function converting a CPU "string id" into an id + features would be interesting too.
Fabrice, do you will accept the patch if I remove the MIPS_FEATURE_ISAx options and convert MIPS_FEATURE_NEC_EXT to MIPS_FEATURE_NEC_VR5400 as described in my previous mail?
I consider this patch as a *first* step from hardcoded and compile time selected MIPS machine to flexible configuration as proposed by you and Thiemo. Other patches, for example with (really nice!) features above, can follow then and take this first patch as basis. With this, several small patches will improve MIPS step by step. I'd like to avoid a 'perfect, but unreadable, big & never ready' patch. And, with several small patches, more people can contribute ;)
