Update target-riscv/TODO #65

Closed farhan90 closed 6 years ago

farhan90 commented 6 years ago

Hi, I am interested with helping port RISC V to QEMU. I am just learning about RISC V architecture and ISA in my attempt to learn more about different computer architecture.

I have some experience working on QEMU professionally, https://git.qemu.org/qemu.git/?p=qemu.git&a=search&h=HEAD&st=author&s=Farhan+Ali, and I would like to help anyway I can to learn more :)

@bkoppelmann hi, do you know anything about todo of qemu-riscv? Thank you~ Not sure which one of contributor should we point to.

poweihuang17 commented 6 years ago

@palmer-dabbelt Palmer, do you know who should we point to? Thanks~

palmer-dabbelt commented 6 years ago

@bkoppelmann @sorear @sagark are probably the best bets. I think QEMU is a very important project and we really need someone to make a concentrated push towards getting it upstream, as it's blocking RISC-V adoption. Can someone sign up to be the maintainer of QEMU and push it upstream? If not, then I can, but I'd prefer not to as we're really pushing on Linux+glibc right now.

farhan90 commented 6 years ago

I am not sure if I can take up the maintainer responsibilities. But I'm willing to help, guide and review patches to help with the upstreaming process for QEMU

palmer-dabbelt commented 6 years ago

@farhan90 Ya, that's fine -- the maintainer part was more aimed and the people who can been contributing for a while.

sagark commented 6 years ago

@bkoppelmann is taking up maintainer duties/upstreaming, afaik

poweihuang17 commented 6 years ago

Nice. Maybe the main player could outline the work for 1.9.1 to 1.10 and we could pick up some.

bkoppelmann commented 6 years ago

Hi @poweihuang17 and @farhan90,

sorry for the late response. I'm really busy right now with examens since I plan to graduate this semester. I'm working on improving the extensibility of the RISC-V QEMU target (see discussion https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/qemu-devel/2017-07/msg07735.html)

I think there are many task that need to be done. I'll update the TODO file in target-riscv in the next days with all the tasks I can think of.

Cheers, Bastian

@bkoppelmann Nice. Thank you. I'm also a master student trying to graduate at next semester, so I could totally understand your situation. Gogogo!

I'm closing this issue because we are using 'Issues' on this GitHub repo for our TODO list.

If you have an Issue, then please raise it...
