Signed-off-by: Julian Brown <address@hidden> Signed-off-by: Sandra Loosemore <address@hidden>Is there some documentation for this stuff ? It looks interesting, but how can I try it here ?There's no documentation AFAIK apart from that the entry points are the same as m68k, semihosting is invoked with "break 1", and r4/r5 are used for passing arguments. I'm not actually sure how you can try this stuff without our startup code or other infrastructure (that I'm pretty sure we can't divulge). Sandra, any ideas?I don't see any reason why we couldn't contribute libgloss support, except that I don't have time to write such a BSP right now. :-( I recently did this for C-SKY, though, and the semihosting parts were just a straightforward copy from the m68k port.
I've posted a patch with libgloss semihosting support for nios2 here: https://sourceware.org/ml/newlib/2018/msg00610.htmlI hope this is enough to unblock consideration of the corresponding QEMU patch set now. Here's a link to the original patch posting:
