Google for MPC7450UM.pdf and MPC7410UM.pdf. These two documents cover the 7441, 7445, 7451, 7455, 7457, 7447, 7448 and the 7410 and 7400 CPUs, respectively.
For all these, Alex' description applies. However, (and I made a mistake in my original post), the setting affected is env->hreset_excp_prefix = 0xfff00000UL; in addition, hreset_vector should be: env->hreset_vector = 0x00000100UL; NOTE - I believe the other points raised by Alex (initialize MSR[IP] -- which BTW is called MSR_EP in qemu -- and switching the exception prefix when MSR[IP] is changed) are already correctly handled, see: target-ppc/helper.c: cpu_reset() target-ppc/helper-hreg.h: hreg_store_msr() Should I post a patch to the mailing-list? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of qemu- devel-ml, which is subscribed to QEMU. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/811683 Title: 7400,7410,7450 cpus vector have wrong exception prefix at reset Status in QEMU: New Bug description: I have a proprietary ROM implementing system calls that are executed via the 'SC' instruction. I use qemu-0.14.1, qemu-system-ppc -M prep -cpu $CPU -bios my_bios -kernel my_kernel That works fine on a 604 (CPU=0x00040103) - but does not on an emulated 7400 (CPU=0x000c0209) or 7450 (CPU=0x80000201). I found that the emulator jumps to 0x00000c00 instead of 0xfff00c00. Probably this is due to a wrong setting in target-ppc/translate_init.c: init_excp_604() correctly sets env->hreset_vector=0xfff00000UL; but init_excp_7400() says env->hreset_vector=0x00000000UL; which seems wrong. (the 7400 manual says a hard-reset jumps initializes the prefix to 0xfff00000.) Likewise, init_excp_7450() (and probably other, related CPUs) are wrong. Indeed, when I change the value in init_excp_7400() to 0xfff00000UL then everything works as expected for me.
