Progress:
* VIRT-65 [QEMU upstream maintainership]
+ 2.12 release kicked out the door; hopefully I can do a bit more
actual development work for a bit now...
+ investigating problems with execute-in-place-from-MMIO-device
functionality : the test case (for a Xilinx board model) crashes
reliably for me. I cooked up an RFC patch and sent it, but it
includes one weird hack and I'm not sure if it's the right approach...
+ we got a Coverity Scan run through after a couple of months of not
having one, and a pile of issues have accumulated. Waded through some
of them and flagged them up with the patch submitters who added the
code that introduced them.
Notes:
* QEMU will have not one but two interns working on Cortex-M0
and micro:bit support (one from Google Summer of Code and
one from Outreachy) !
* QEMU turns 15 years old this year. To celebrate we plan to
make the next release be 3.0 (and perhaps to have birthday
cake at KVM Forum?)
thanks
