Hi Peter, I suddenly found qemu built with debug enabled aborting with an assertion on one of xtensa tests:
qemu-system-xtensa -M sim -cpu dc232b -nographic -semihosting -kernel ./test_sr.tst QEMU 1.4.50 monitor - type 'help' for more information (qemu) QEMU 1.4.50 monitor - type 'help' for more information (qemu) qemu-system-xtensa: tcg/tcg.c:1673: temp_save: Assertion `s->temps[temp].val_type == 2 || s->temps[temp].fixed_reg' failed. This happens in the mainline as well, bisection points to the following commit: commit 378df4b23753a11be650af7664ca76bc75cb9f01 Author: Peter Maydell <peter.mayd...@linaro.org> Date: Fri Feb 22 18:10:03 2013 +0000 Handle CPU interrupts by inline checking of a flag I have the following traces when it happens, any idea of what could go wrong?
