Hm, I think the QEMU check script must be updated so we can use it for the imx8 platform. Since I’m not sure about SHM_IPC_REG, can we just define the mailbox (outbox offset) in this script so it will only check the mailbox for the ready message?
(@Daniel Do we have good values for the IPC so we don’t need to do the above? Or we would just have a separate copy of the script which would just check the mailbox?)

We check both IPC message and mailbox looking for the FW ready message.
To use this scripts with Docker you will need ./scripts/docker-qemu.sh ../sof.git/scripts/qemu-check.sh $PLATFORM

Hi Xiuli,
Maybe this fall through the cracks 🙂. So, the question here is how do you check that booting dsp with Qemu works fine 🙂.
Care to share the test scripts?
Daniel.

Hi Xiuli,
I want to understand the testcase for booting SOF firmware with Qemu.
It seems the test is started like this:
./xtensa-softmmu/qemu-system-xtensa -cpu broxton -M adsp_skl -nographic -kernel ../sof.git/build_skl_gcc/src/arch/xtensa/sof-skl.ri -rom ../sof.git/build_skl_gcc/src/arch/xtensa/rom-skl.bin
What I don't understand is how you figure out the boot is OK or not?
Can you share the test script 🙂.
thanks, Daniel.
