Arm MPS2 and MPS3 boards (``mps2-an385``, ``mps2-an386``, ``mps2-an500``, ``mps2-an505``, ``mps2-an511``, ``mps2-an521``, ``mps3-an524``)

=========================================================================================================================================
|
|
|
|
These board models all use Arm M-profile CPUs.
|
|
|
|
The Arm MPS2, MPS2+ and MPS3 dev boards are FPGA based (the 2+ has a
|
|
bigger FPGA but is otherwise the same as the 2; the 3 has a bigger
|
|
FPGA again, can handle 4GB of RAM and has a USB controller and QSPI flash).
|
|
|
|
Since the CPU itself and most of the devices are in the FPGA, the
|
|
details of the board as seen by the guest depend significantly on the
|
|
FPGA image.
|
|
|
|
QEMU models the following FPGA images:

|
Cortex-M3 as documented in Arm Application Note AN385
|
|
``mps2-an386``

|
``mps2-an500``
|
|

|
``mps3-an524``

Differences between QEMU and real hardware:
|
|
|
|
- AN385/AN386 remapping of low 16K of memory to either ZBT SSRAM1 or to
|
|
block RAM is unimplemented (QEMU always maps this to ZBT SSRAM1, as
|
|
if zbt_boot_ctrl is always zero)
|
|
- AN524 remapping of low memory to either BRAM or to QSPI flash is
|
|
unimplemented (QEMU always maps this to BRAM, ignoring the
|
|
SCC CFG_REG0 memory-remap bit)
|
|
- QEMU provides a LAN9118 ethernet rather than LAN9220; the only guest
|
|
visible difference is that the LAN9118 doesn't support checksum
|
|
offloading
|
|
- QEMU does not model the QSPI flash in MPS3 boards as real QSPI
|
|
flash, but only as simple ROM, so attempting to rewrite the flash
|
|
from the guest will fail
|
|
- QEMU does not model the USB controller in MPS3 boards
