[-- Attachment #1: Type: text/plain, Size: 411 bytes --] Hello developer community, I want to allow a *sysbus *type device to boot with kernel image(arm architecture) via Qemu command line . When I run qemu arm system executable with *-device *option via qemu command line,I get following error message > qemu-system-arm: -device pl061: Parameter 'driver' expects pluggable device type So, how to allow a sysbus device via command line? Is there any working patch? [-- Attachment #2: Type: text/html, Size: 615 bytes --]

Hi, it looks like the pl061 device is not declared "user creatable" so it is unavailable from the CLI. As a sysbus device, QEMU is not aware, in the abstract, of how to "connect" the device to other devices. See the sysbus class initialization code for more detail: https://github.com/qemu/qemu/blob/master/hw/core/sysbus.c#L301 However, It looks like these boards/devices create such a device: hw/arm/highbank hw/arm/realview hw/arm/sbsa-ref hw/arm/stellaris hw/arm/versatilepb hw/arm/virt If you want one on some other kind of machine, you'll need to write it up yourself in the machine board code, but you didn't tell us what version of QEMU you're using, what machine type you are trying to use, etc. --js
[-- Attachment #1: Type: text/plain, Size: 2409 bytes --] Hi, Thanks for providing relevant information. FYI I am using Qemu version *4.2.94 (v5.0.0-rc4-dirty).* I am using *virt* board. Where we need to set *user creatable *to true? Any other modification is needed to allow sysbus device support?

[-- Attachment #1: Type: text/plain, Size: 2902 bytes --] Hi, I have set user_creatable to true in class_init function of pl061 source code. Now when I run qemu via command line with *-device *option it gives below output > qemu-system-arm: Device pl061 can not be dynamically instantiated > I request community members to reply asap!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
