Hi, I'm looking into creating a virtualised test bed for an 802.15.4 network. Currently I have QEMU running and emulating our HW which bridges the Ethernet from the guest to the host. What I would like to do is something similar with the 802.15.4 network interface. The host doesn't have a physical 802.15.4 interface but if I could get the data out of the guest and into QEMU I could communicate with a central network simulator to deal with the packets. My first thought was to write a virtual device for QEMU that would interface with our 802.15.4 driver in the guest but then I realise that the real device hangs of an AMBA bus so my next idea was to write a PCI driver for 802.15.4 on the guest making it possible to write a PCI virtual QEMU device.
I just wanted to confirm that this is possible and whether there is a better solution? Many Thanks, Martin.
