I think it is a good first step. As the GCC doesn't generate VU instructions and there are several optimisations missing in the GCC, I assume it will not be able to handle a larger test like: https://sourceforge.net/p/kernelloader/ps2linux-toolchain/ci/master/tree/minimalistic As it will later access /dev/ps2gs, you will need to run the qemu on the PS2 to be able to run the test completely. Note: As the official Linux kernel has several bugs and the test tries to exploit them, it may not be possible to execute the test without my PS2 Linux patches. Best regards Jürgen Urban
