[Qemu-devel] qemu working openbsd/sparc64 yet?

[Vivek Ayer]

Hi guys,

Just wondering if qemu builds and runs well on sparc64 hosts. I wanted
to install a linux guest on openbsd/sparc64 to run matlab and
mathematica.

Thanks,
Vivek

It builds and at least sparc32 emulator runs, much better than on
Linux host but not perfectly.

Re: [Qemu-devel] qemu working openbsd/sparc64 yet?

[Vivek Ayer]

what were your configure options? I'm getting an error using gmake at
i386-softmmu. I'm checking out the svn code to see if that's better.
If you can send me the build that you got working that'd be great. I
just need Linux on OpenBSD/sparc64 so I can go ahead and use MATLAB
and Mathematica.

Thanks,
Vivek

I guess those are x86 versions. The i386 emulator does not work on
Sparc because unaligned accesses are not handled yet by the code
generator. But it should build all right.

I just use something like
./configure --target-list="sparc-softmmu sparc64-softmmu sparc64-bsd-user"
and I get shell prompt with the sparc-test Linux setup on sparc-softmmu.

Re: [Qemu-devel] qemu working openbsd/sparc64 yet?

[Vivek Ayer]

Wait...I'm confused. The i386 emulation builds ok? I tried building
with all emulation options and it wouldn't build.

Suppose I went with your options: ./configure
--target-list="sparc-softmmu sparc64-softmmu sparc64-bsd-user

This would allow me to emulate which guests exactly? You got Linux to
run, but that's Sparc/Linux and MATLAB wouldn't install on that.
Because the MATLAB license can only install on Linux (i386), Linux
(x86-64), OSX (Intel), Solaris 64, and Windows . So the QEMU install
would be limited to emulating openbsd/sparc64, linux/sparc64,
linux/sparc, and solaris/opensolaris.

Considering the install options, I'm just limited to using Solaris 64,
right? Which would I could only run solaris/opensolaris on
openbsd/sparc64 to install matlab, right?

Just want to make sure,
Vivek

Wait, does openbsd/sparc64 build x86_64 fine? That would be better
than sparc and sparc64.

[Vivek Ayer]

okay i guess it doesn't build the x86_64 target either. So looks like
I'm stuck with SPARC/Solaris. Can't even install Linux on the SPARC
emulator because MATLAB wouldn't install.

[Vivek Ayer]

How did you build it without getting an error in sdl.c specifically at
X11/Xlib.h? I tried disabling sdl and it built fine, but the images
weren't loading, so I thought I'd go with the default options except
for the target list.

Thanks,
Vivek

Sparc64 emulator does not work very well yet, no OS can get to shell
prompt. Sparc32 emulator probably could run old Solaris (v9), but some
details in OpenBIOS do not match what Solaris expects. Linux works,
NetBSD 4.0 and most OpenBSD versions work but not without problems.

I'm using -current, but I didn't have compile problems with 4.1 (IIRC).

But this reminds me that I found a bug in SDL which made SDL apps
crash when running on Sparc with $DISPLAY pointing to x86 X server.
This bug was fixed in upstream SDL, but 4.1 still has the broken
version.

Re: [Qemu-devel] qemu working openbsd/sparc64 yet?

[Vivek Ayer]

That's weird because I'm using 4.3. Does QEMU expect X to be on when
you run it? I'm doing this over ssh to a terminal and thought since I
disable X support in Qemu, it would default to ncurses. In any case, I
had a segfault when starting it trying to emulate opensolaris martux
(SPARC/32-bit), which I guess is solaris 10, so I guess that could be
the reason it didn't work. I'll try reproducing the error. Also, I
didn't enable the sparc64 targets in the target list. I used
./configure --prefix=/usr/local --target-list="sparc-softmmu
sparc-bsd-user" --disable-sdl --disable-gfx-check. I'll try the svn
code, but I doubt that'll help.

okay i run: qemu-sparc -m 256 -boot d -cdrom linux.img using the
sample sparc-linux image and I get:

Illegal Instruction (core dumped).

Exactly, what steps did you take to get the linux image to run on
openbsd/sparc64. Could you show it with numbered steps so I can
troubleshoot and try to replicate your setup.

qemu-sparc is the BSD user emulator, which can run single BSD
programs, like /bin/ls. You should use qemu-system-sparc instead.
