Release Qemu for Pandora (for rebirth competition)

[MrChops]

Gonna be tough to beat this app. Hands down winner in my book. I'm dying to get my hands on this!


What's the chances of usermode being fixed for arm in the near future?

No clue unfortunately, but to do that myself is over my skills...

 

[MrChops]

Do you know if the problem has been added to their bug tracker?


https://bugs.launchpad.net/qemu/


I had a quick look but I wasn't sure exactly what to look for.

 

[mcobit]

They should be aware of it, as versions from 1.0 up have no working arm host support right now and they know about it.


Edit: what is quite funny, as they added kvm support for the new a15.

Not sure if you saw in IRC; I have usermode qemu working on my Pandora (with threads/forking, even)

WINE, however, deadlocks. I haven't yet spent the time to debug/fix it. If I get WINE working, I can develop native graphics acceleration based on WINE's graphics wrappers and the QEMU opengl es passthrough, potentially making early direct3d/draw and opengl games extremely playable.

 

[mcobit]

Wow, this is good news Which version of qemu?

 

[lunixbochs]

 

[Binky]

How powerful a windows machine could WINE+QEmu emulate?


(assuming graphics acceleration works out)

 

[lunixbochs]

We're still talking low-end pentium 1-2, but graphics acceleration means no load from a software renderer, which should be pretty significant - I'm betting the hardware rendering will be much more efficient (because I'll likely pass the rendering calls to completely native code).

 

[mcobit]

Did you patch it up, so 1.0 works? Were you able to start a virtual machine or another linux x86 prgram?

 

[lunixbochs]

User-mode is just for starting linux x86 programs, and yes iirc I was able to chroot into a full x86 system


That's actually a screenshot of qemu-i386 running on my x86_64 server under qemu-arm (having qemu-arm in user-space has made my Pandora development workflow much nicer, while still far faster than the Pandora itself )... but the same binary works on my pandora. I got x86 Dwarf Fortress running on it as a rather successful (albeit slow) test.


With an OpenGL -> GL ES binary wrapper (I have a basic one already), we could also run binary games/programs ported to x86 Linux but not ARM or open-source.

 

[mcobit]

Sounds good, you should push your patches upstream, as original 1.1 doesn't work for armhosts atm.

 

[DSwizzy145]

Hey mcobit, um will any of the PC-98 Japanese games may work using Qemu? Thanks and also here's a list of a couple of more Dosbox games here: http://members.chello.at/theodor.lauppert/games/

 

[mcobit]

I can't see, why they shouldn't as log as they are dos or early win95.


You'll get the chance to test pretty soon
