This adds QEMU RISC-V 'virt' board target support, with the hope of
helping people easily test U-Boot on RISC-V.
The QEMU virt machine models a generic RISC-V virtual machine with
support for the VirtIO standard networking and block storage devices.
It has CLINT, PLIC, 16550A UART devices in addition to VirtIO and
it also uses device-tree to pass configuration information to guest
software. It implements RISC-V privileged architecture spec v1.10.
Both 32-bit and 64-bit builds are supported. Support is pretty much
preliminary, only booting to U-Boot shell with the UART driver on
a single core. Booting Linux is not supported yet.
For your information and to avoid duplicate work, I am working on a
patch set that improves RISC-V support in u-boot. I am currently able
to boot Linux on a multi-core setup in QEMU, but they are not quite
ready to submit yet.
This is great! My next step is to work on virtio driver support in
U-Boot as qemu-riscv virt machine has these devices but we don't have
corresponding drivers in U-Boot.
At some point I was working on porting the virtio stack from Linux to
U-Boot and IIRC got virtio-blk and virtio-net working on ARM. But other
things consumed my time and I never quite finished that work. Let me
know if you want to take a look.
