I've been looking at it over the last week or so and I have submitted a patch toe the qemu-devel mailing list to fix another timer_create() problem sometime in the last week.
Unfortunately the test case @pittit submitted is far harder to support than the original test case. In this case the timer_create() syscall gets passed pointers to functions and data in the target's address space and I have not figured out how to handle that yet. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of qemu- devel-ml, which is subscribed to QEMU. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1042388 Title: qemu: Unsupported syscall: 257 (timer_create) Status in QEMU: Fix Released Status in “qemu” package in Ubuntu: Triaged Bug description: Running qemu-arm-static for git HEAD.
