| Unsolved issues/bugs in the mips/mipsel backend
 | |
| -----------------------------------------------
 | |
| 
 | |
| General
 | |
| -------
 | |
| - Unimplemented ASEs:
 | |
|   - MDMX
 | |
|   - SmartMIPS
 | |
|   - microMIPS DSP r1 & r2 encodings
 | |
| - MT ASE only partially implemented and not functional
 | |
| - Shadow register support only partially implemented,
 | |
|   lacks set switching on interrupt/exception.
 | |
| - 34K ITC not implemented.
 | |
| - A general lack of documentation, especially for technical internals.
 | |
|   Existing documentation is x86-centric.
 | |
| - Reverse endianness bit not implemented
 | |
| - The TLB emulation is very inefficient:
 | |
|   QEMU's softmmu implements a x86-style MMU, with separate entries
 | |
|   for read/write/execute, a TLB index which is just a modulo of the
 | |
|   virtual address, and a set of TLBs for each user/kernel/supervisor
 | |
|   MMU mode.
 | |
|   MIPS has a single entry for read/write/execute and only one MMU mode.
 | |
|   But it is fully associative with randomized entry indices, and uses
 | |
|   up to 256 ASID tags as additional matching criterion (which roughly
 | |
|   equates to 256 MMU modes). It also has a global flag which causes
 | |
|   entries to match regardless of ASID.
 | |
|   To cope with these differences, QEMU currently flushes the TLB at
 | |
|   each ASID change. Using the MMU modes to implement ASIDs hinges on
 | |
|   implementing the global bit efficiently.
 | |
| - save/restore of the CPU state is not implemented (see machine.c).
 | |
| 
 | |
| MIPS64
 | |
| ------
 | |
| - Userland emulation (both n32 and n64) not functional.
 | |
| 
 | |
| "Generic" 4Kc system emulation
 | |
| ------------------------------
 | |
| - Doesn't correspond to any real hardware. Should be removed some day,
 | |
|   U-Boot is the last remaining user.
 | |
| 
 | |
| PICA 61 system emulation
 | |
| ------------------------
 | |
| - No framebuffer support yet.
 | |
| 
 | |
| MALTA system emulation
 | |
| ----------------------
 | |
| - We fake firmware support instead of doing the real thing
 | |
| - Real firmware (YAMON) falls over when trying to init RAM, presumably
 | |
|   due to lacking system controller emulation.
 | |
| - Bonito system controller not implemented
 | |
| - MSC1 system controller not implemented
 |
