Hi, I need your help:
I am working for an industrial company. Here, we build a machine composed of - a board with a PowerPC as CPU - classic devices such as ethernet - other private devices. LynxOS runs on the board with private applications and private additional drivers. We would like to use QEMU to emulate the whole hardware system so that APP+KERNEL+DRIVERS run on QEMU. The goal is to debug without downloading software onto the physical board, but directly on a Linux PC. I suppose we'll need to modify QEMU's source to add code to simulate our private devices. I would like to know if it is feasible? And then the degree of difficulty to carry out the new emulator. Can a QEMUL newbie do that? How much time would be needed? I guess it is very difficult but I need concrete answers. Any advice is welcome. Thank you. Regards, Florent Defay.
