Loongson-3 CPU family include Loongson-3A R1/R2/R3/R4 and Loongson-3B R1/R2. Loongson-3A R1 is the oldest and its ISA is the smallest, while Loongson-3A R4 is the newest and its ISA is almost the superset of all others. To reduce complexity, in QEMU we just define two CPU types:
1, "Loongson-3A1000" CPU which is corresponding to Loongson-3A R1. It is suitable for TCG because Loongson-3A R1 has fewest ASE. 2, "Loongson-3A4000" CPU which is corresponding to Loongson-3A R4. It is suitable for KVM because Loongson-3A R4 has the VZ ASE. Loongson-3 lacks English documents. I've tried to translated them with translate.google.com, and the machine translated documents (together with their original Chinese versions) are available here.

We are preparing to add QEMU's Loongson-3 support. MIPS VZ extension is fully supported in Loongson-3A R4+, so we at first add QEMU/KVM support in this series. And the next series will add QEMU/TCG support (it will emulate Loongson-3A R1). We already have a full functional Linux kernel (based on Linux-5.4.x LTS but not upstream yet) here: https://github.com/chenhuacai/linux How to use QEMU/Loongson-3? 1, Download kernel source from the above URL; 2, Build a kernel with arch/mips/configs/loongson3_{def,hpc}config; 3, Boot a Loongson-3A4000 host with this kernel; 4, Build QEMU-5.0.0 with this patchset; 5, modprobe kvm; 6, Use QEMU with TCG (available in future): qemu-system-mips64el -M loongson3,accel=tcg -cpu Loongson-3A1000 -kernel <path_to_kernel> -append ... Use QEMU with KVM (available at present): qemu-system-mips64el -M loongson3,accel=kvm -cpu Loongson-3A4000 -kernel <path_to_kernel> -append ... The "-cpu" parameter can be omitted here and QEMU will use the correct type for TCG/KVM automatically. V1 -> V2: 1, Add a cover letter; 2, Improve CPU definitions; 3, Remove LS7A-related things (Use GPEX instead); 4, Add a description of how to run QEMU/Loongson-3. V2 -> V3: 1, Fix all possible checkpatch.pl errors and warnings. V3 -> V4: 1, Sync code with upstream; 2, Remove merged patches; 3, Fix build failure without CONFIG_KVM; 4, Add Reviewed-by: Aleksandar Markovic <aleksandar.qemu.de...@gmail.com>.
