Hi All, This patch series adds support for two board configurable ARM CPU properties - Configuration Base Address Register and the hivecs-on-reset.
The CBAR is needed to fix Zynq and Highbank which both were broken for linux boot. This series provides the fixes. I have added these properties as qdev properties rather than object properties to pick up the desired writable-until-realize semantic. To test the semantics of these new qdev properties I hacked Highbank to illegally set the property after realize: diff --git a/hw/arm/highbank.c b/hw/arm/highbank.c index c75b425..905483d 100644 --- a/hw/arm/highbank.c +++ b/hw/arm/highbank.c @@ -236,13 +236,13 @@ static void calxeda_init(QEMUMachineInitArgs *args, enum cxmachines machine) cpu = ARM_CPU(object_new(object_class_get_name(oc))); - object_property_set_int(OBJECT(cpu), MPCORE_PERIPHBASE, "reset-cbar", - &err); + object_property_set_bool(OBJECT(cpu), true, "realized", &err); if (err) { error_report("%s", error_get_pretty(err)); exit(1); } - object_property_set_bool(OBJECT(cpu), true, "realized", &err); + object_property_set_int(OBJECT(cpu), MPCORE_PERIPHBASE, "reset-cbar", + &err); if (err) { error_report("%s", error_get_pretty(err)); exit(1); Booting with this bug I now get: $ qemu-system-arm -M highbank ... qemu-system-arm: Attempt to set property 'reset-cbar' on anonymous device (type 'cortex-a9-arm-cpu') after it was realized whereas the previous versions would have silent failed.
