I know of the Greensocs SystemC > bridge - but that was quite difficult to work with in past. Not really - with a few exceptions like vhost-user and in KVM device emulation all devices are emulated in the QEMU code base. As a result the best way to maintain a device is to have it integrated upstream (along with some tests to ensure it is working). As you note there are various forks of QEMU that support device modelling but none of these features have been merged upstream and would likely need to assuage worries about such interfaces being used to avoid GPL compliance. What sort of devices are you looking to model? Are these existing devices or experimental/research things? -- Alex Bennée
