Hi,
One of the changes I
would like to contribute (assuming my company gives the ok) is a somewhat
improved reader for ELF executables, and returns the entry point.
Although somewhat useless for the bootstrap program (which must start at the
processor's reset address), this is useful to emulate the actions of a ELF
loader, such as included in a boot loader. However, the current design of
QEMU hardcodes the image reading strategy within the "machine" abstraction (a
"machine" is what a "board-support package" typically targets), so if you would
like to use this different loader in a given machine, you will have to modify
the "machine" implementation.
The release process
could take up to three weeks, but you might wish to wait that
long.
The serial port
abstraction, and in particular their base addresses, also materialize in the
"machine" implementation.
Regards,
Konrad
