Re: [Qemu-arm] [Qemu-devel] [PATCH v2 00/19] Add support for multiple ad


From: Peter Maydell
Subject: Re: [Qemu-arm] [Qemu-devel] [PATCH v2 00/19] Add support for multiple address spaces per CPU and use it for ARM TrustZone
Date: Mon, 11 Jan 2016 13:04:29 +0000

Ping again (though I know Paolo said on IRC he'd put this on
his list to look at). I have a rebased branch at
  https://git.linaro.org/people/peter.maydell/qemu-arm.git multi-ases-2
but the only differences are some minor fixes to conflicts in
the virt board patches following the GPIO device going into master,
so I'm not going to resend the patchset unless somebody specifically
wants me to -- I think the patches on list should be ok for review
purposes.

thanks
