I have a couple of questions regarding sparc64 softmmu support in Qemu: - Is this part of Qemu being actively developed? Judging by the commits to the git repo, it doesn't look like there's a whole lot of focus on development of this right now? - Does anyone know what's left to be done for the sparc64 target to get it to boot Solaris correctly? Is there any sort of a bug repository for Qemu that might list these things? Or maybe someone has a list in their head? - As has already been mentioned on this list, Sun has released the Open Boot PROM code (at least the sun4v version of it) under the BSD and GPL licenses. What would it take to get Qemu to use the OBP code instead of OpenBIOS? Looks like the OBP output isn't really an executable, and it seems like sparc64-softmmu will only load Sparc ELF binaries for the BIOS.
