QEMU Emulation for Infineon AURIX TC39x

QEMU Emulation for Infineon AURIX TC4Dx

Emulate the Infineon AURIX TriCore architecture under QEMU. Two boards are supported:

Both provide the STM system timer, a polling-mode ASCLIN UART console and the interrupt router.

The qemu_tc3x board supports the hardware features listed below.

on-chip / on-board: Feature integrated in the SoC / present on the board.
2 / 2: Number of instances that are enabled / disabled.

TriCore QEMU is not part of the Zephyr SDK. Use a prebuilt binary from https://github.com/linumiz/qemu-tricore/releases, or build it from source:

git clone https://github.com/linumiz/qemu-tricore.git
cd qemu-tricore
./configure --target-list=tricore-softmmu
make -j$(nproc) && make install

Ensure qemu-system-tricore is on your $PATH.

The qemu_tc3x board supports the runners and associated west commands listed below.

	flash	debug

Build and run the Hello World sample (use qemu_tc4x for the TC4Dx target):

# From the root of the zephyr repository
west build -b qemu_tc3x samples/hello_world
west build -t run

The console shows:

*** Booting Zephyr OS build ... ***
Hello World! qemu_tc3x/qemu_tc3x

Exit QEMU by pressing CTRL+A x.
