1Arm MPS2 and MPS3 boards (``mps2-an385``, ``mps2-an386``, ``mps2-an500``, ``mps2-an505``, ``mps2-an511``, ``mps2-an521``, ``mps3-an524``, ``mps3-an547``) 2========================================================================================================================================================= 3 4These board models all use Arm M-profile CPUs. 5 6The Arm MPS2, MPS2+ and MPS3 dev boards are FPGA based (the 2+ has a 7bigger FPGA but is otherwise the same as the 2; the 3 has a bigger 8FPGA again, can handle 4GB of RAM and has a USB controller and QSPI flash). 9 10Since the CPU itself and most of the devices are in the FPGA, the 11details of the board as seen by the guest depend significantly on the 12FPGA image. 13 14QEMU models the following FPGA images: 15 16``mps2-an385`` 17 Cortex-M3 as documented in Arm Application Note AN385 18``mps2-an386`` 19 Cortex-M4 as documented in Arm Application Note AN386 20``mps2-an500`` 21 Cortex-M7 as documented in Arm Application Note AN500 22``mps2-an505`` 23 Cortex-M33 as documented in Arm Application Note AN505 24``mps2-an511`` 25 Cortex-M3 'DesignStart' as documented in Arm Application Note AN511 26``mps2-an521`` 27 Dual Cortex-M33 as documented in Arm Application Note AN521 28``mps3-an524`` 29 Dual Cortex-M33 on an MPS3, as documented in Arm Application Note AN524 30``mps3-an547`` 31 Cortex-M55 on an MPS3, as documented in Arm Application Note AN547 32 33Differences between QEMU and real hardware: 34 35- AN385/AN386 remapping of low 16K of memory to either ZBT SSRAM1 or to 36 block RAM is unimplemented (QEMU always maps this to ZBT SSRAM1, as 37 if zbt_boot_ctrl is always zero) 38- AN524 remapping of low memory to either BRAM or to QSPI flash is 39 unimplemented (QEMU always maps this to BRAM, ignoring the 40 SCC CFG_REG0 memory-remap bit) 41- QEMU provides a LAN9118 ethernet rather than LAN9220; the only guest 42 visible difference is that the LAN9118 doesn't support checksum 43 offloading 44- QEMU does not model the QSPI flash in MPS3 boards as real QSPI 45 flash, but only as simple ROM, so attempting to rewrite the flash 46 from the guest will fail 47- QEMU does not model the USB controller in MPS3 boards 48 49Machine-specific options 50"""""""""""""""""""""""" 51 52The following machine-specific options are supported: 53 54remap 55 Supported for ``mps3-an524`` only. 56 Set ``BRAM``/``QSPI`` to select the initial memory mapping. The 57 default is ``BRAM``.
