I'm trying to set up an environment where I can use a command like qemu-arm -L /path/to/root-file-system my_program
I tried qemu from latest Debian unstable, and couldn't make it work. I then downloaded the latest snapshot (qemu-snapshot-2007-10-29_05). I used a recent version of the CodeSourcery toolchain. As it is, qemu-arm fails with an error like this: qemu: Unsupported syscall: 983045 which indicates missing TLS support. I found this patch: http://www.freaknet.org/martin/QEMU/patch.qemu-0.8.2_nptl-pb147082-mg1 and managed to apply it to the current code. It solves the TLS problem, but now fails with a different error: qemu: unhandled CPU exception 0x8 - aborting R00=421a5c14 R01=00000000 R02=421a5c08 R03=00000001 R04=4008ef88 R05=00000000 R06=00000000 R07=00000000 R08=00000000 R09=00000000 R10=400a5000 R11=00000000 R12=ffff0fff R13=4007f858 R14=420b4b3c R15=ffff0fa0 PSR=20000010 --C- A usr32 ...(registers in between are all zero)... qemu: uncaught target signal 6 (Aborted) - exiting This is exactly the same behaviour as shown by the Debian version of qemu. Maybe they applied the same patch... The problem does not show up if I use libraries from an old (2 years) Timesys toolchain, so it seems to be triggered by code found in recent libc versions. What can I do now? Is this a known problem? Any patches for that? Thanks, Hans
