Is there an ok emulator anywhere? Does qemu have support?
- basementcat 3y agoThere is ski but it may be tricky to build on newer kernels because of changes in syscalls. https://github.com/trofi/ski https://github.com/trofi/ski
- jauntywundrkind 3y agoNice, thanks. It's a pointless optimization problem but it'd be interesting to futz around & see what either compiler techniques or weird things we could get AI to generate for this architecture. I always wonder if there's some kind of strange explicit smt or on-thr-fly instruction building or swapping... dynamically melding coroutines into ones main code.
- ChickeNES 3y agoThere's a partial usermode emulation fork of qemu out there, but it is very old. I've meant to look into seeing what is needed to flesh out the softmmu emulation, but it would be rough going as I don't have Itanium hardware to test against. Simics also used to support Itanium years ago, but unfortunately that support doesn't exist in the version that Intel released to the public a few years back
