Re: [Qemu-devel] How to create new target port?
I'm investigating adding a new target architecture to QEMU. Are there documents, how-to's, or other guidance on how to approach this? Or any advice? I noticed that there are a number of directories for architectures like target-arm and target-mips. There are also definitions under tcg for arm and mips. I noticed that target-microblaze exists, but there is no microblaze directory under tcg. What does this mean? Depends on what you'd like to add, a guest or a host support. If you want to add a new guest, take target-xxx/* as an example. Otherwise, looks at tcg/xxx/*. The term target could be a little MISLEADING here. :) Regards, chenwj -- Wei-Ren Chen (陳韋任) Computer Systems Lab, Institute of Information Science, Academia Sinica, Taiwan (R.O.C.)

Yes, that's the place for new target architectures. Which architecture are you thinking of? Maybe someone else is already working on it. http://wiki.qemu.org/Links has an incomplete list of links to unofficial versions of QEMU which support additional targets. Regards, Stefan Weil

It's a proprietary architecture, not one of those mentioned. I'll add it to the list as we move forward with the project. -- Michael Eagerea...@eagercon.com 1960 Park Blvd., Palo Alto, CA 94306 650-325-8077
