From: Philippe Mathieu-Daudé <f4...@amsat.org> Currently the Leon3 machine doesn't allow to load legacy u-boot images:
$ qemu-system-sparc -M leon3_generic -d in_asm \ -kernel HelenOS-0.6.0-sparc32-leon3.bin qemu-system-sparc: could not load kernel 'HelenOS-0.6.0-sparc32-leon3.bin' $ file HelenOS-0.6.0-sparc32-leon3.bin HelenOS-0.6.0-sparc32-leon3.bin: u-boot legacy uImage, HelenOS-0.6.0,\ Linux/ARM, OS Kernel Image (Not compressed), 2424229 bytes,\ Sun Dec 21 19:18:09 2014,\ Load Address: 0x40000000, Entry Point: 0x40000000,\ Header CRC: 0x8BCFA236, Data CRC: 0x37AD87DF Since QEMU can load uImages, add the necessary code, so the Leon3 machine can load these images: $ qemu-system-sparc -M leon3_generic -d in_asm \ -kernel HelenOS-0.6.0-sparc32-leon3.bin ---------------- IN: 0x40000000: b 0x400007a8 0x40000004: nop ---------------- IN: 0x400007a8: save %sp, -136, %sp 0x400007ac: call 0x40000020 0x400007b0: sethi %hi(0x4000b800), %i1 ...
