RTEMS/LEON3 on Qemu

[Jiri Gaisler]

You can run the regular leon3 bsp on qemu if you apply these two
patches on qemu git head:

http://gaisler.org/qemu/

Configure qemu with --target-list=sparc-softmmu --enable-debug, and
execute the RTEMS binaries with:

qemu-system-sparc -no-reboot -nographic -M leon3_generic -m 64M -kernel ticker.exe

Note, there is no support for MMU, SMP or networking in the leon3 port of qemu.

Jiri.

PS. Somebody with write access might want to add this to the RTEMS wiki ...
