RX System emulator — QEMU documentation

# RX System emulator

Use the executable `qemu-system-rx` to simulate RX target (GDB simulator). This target emulated following devices.

- R5F562N8 MCU

  - On-chip memory (ROM 512KB, RAM 96KB)

  - Interrupt Control Unit (ICUa)

  - 8Bit Timer x 1CH (TMR0,1)

  - Compare Match Timer x 2CH (CMT0,1)

  - Serial Communication Interface x 1CH (SCI0)

- External memory 16MByte

Example of `qemu-system-rx` usage for RX is shown below:

Download `<u-boot_image_file>` from https://osdn.net/users/ysato/pf/qemu/dl/u-boot.bin.gz

Start emulation of rx-virt::

  qemu-system-rx -M gdbsim-r5f562n8 -bios <u-boot_image_file>

Download `kernel_image_file` from https://osdn.net/users/ysato/pf/qemu/dl/zImage

Download `device_tree_blob` from https://osdn.net/users/ysato/pf/qemu/dl/rx-virt.dtb

Start emulation of rx-virt::
  qemu-system-rx -M gdbsim-r5f562n8

    -kernel <kernel_image_file> -dtb <device_tree_blob> -append “earlycon”
