Linaro QEMU 2012.04 released

Posted on April 12, 2012 by

The Linaro Toolchain Working Group is pleased to announce the release of Linaro QEMU 2012.04.

Linaro QEMU 2012.04 is the latest monthly release of qemu-linaro. Based off upstream (trunk) QEMU, it includes a number of ARM-focused bug fixes and enhancements.

New in this month’s release:

  • ppoll syscall now supported in ARM linux-user mode
  • the SETEND instruction in the Thumb encoding now UNDEFs to match behaviour for the ARM encoding
  • the OMAP36xx UART FIFO status registers are now implemented (thanks to Jan Vesely)

Known issues:

  • Graphics do not work for OMAP3 based models (beagle, overo) with 11.10 Linaro images.
  • Audio may not work on Versatile Express models with the latest Linaro kernel/hardware packs (LP: #977610).

    Hi Fathi,

    Does this release support the V8 architectures? If not, when will this be made available? Thanks!
