Qemu system mode emulation for heterogeneous SOC

[Ancuta, Cristian]

Hi all,

 

As the subject says, I was wondering if QEMU execution model allows the full system emulation of a custom heterogeneous SoC architecture.

 

I’m currently looking at the VersatilePB board as an example of how to define a board, it’s CPUs, peripherals, memory maps, etc, but it is just one ARM core so I’m not sure whether that’s the best example to start with.

 

As a related question, is MMIO supported in user mode emulation?

 

Thanks,

Cristian
