Cover letter [Buildroot] [PATCH 0/2] add support for xtensa back to buildroot

Chris,

Quoted 7 lines · Thomas Petazzoni

I've also seen that Qemu has an Xtensa support. It would be nice if you could create a qemu_xtensa_<somemachine>_defconfig with the necessary kernel configuration and al (see other qemu_<foo>_defconfig that we have in configs/) so that other people could build a Xtensa userspace and run it inside qemu. At the moment, the qemu-system-xtensa supports the following machines:

$ qemu-system-xtensa -M ?
Supported machines are:
none                 empty machine
lx60                 lx60 EVB (dc232b)
lx200                lx200 EVB (dc232b)
sim                  sim machine (dc232b) (default)

Do you have any plans for proposing the support of a Qemu board using the Xtensa architecture? Qemu already supports 2-3 platforms, so it would be nice if Buildroot had a defconfig to generate a working system for one of them.

Thanks,

Thomas
