qemu-mips #11

Closed sv720 closed 2 years ago

sv720 commented 2 years ago

Hi, I was wondering what version/setup of qemu-mips will be used to test our compiler and where we can download it? qemu-system-mips is on apt but not sure if this is the same thing... Would it also be possible to get a quick explanation as to how we can test the mips code that we generate (in a similar way to what was done in lab3) ?

Hi, it should already be available in the vm, which installs packages: qemu and qemu-user. This should be enough to get it working.

And to test the mips code that you generate, you should be able to follow the instructions in the README.

Due to... challenges... in disk size - I'm not using a VM so I'm not using the Vagrant file (not yet at least). I assume running this should work?

MIPS cross-compiler stuff

  sudo apt-get -y install g++-mips-linux-gnu gdb-multiarch

  # QEMU run-time emulator
  sudo apt-get -y install qemu
