qemu_esp32 Add tensilica esp32 cpu and a board to qemu and dump the rom to learn more about esp-idf
This documents how to add an esp32 cpu and a simple esp32 board to qemu in order to run an app compiled with the SDK (esp-idf) in QEMU. Esp32 is a 240 MHz dual core Tensilica LX6 microcontroller. It is a good way to learn about qemu , esp32 and the esp32 rom.
1. Build qemu
git clone git://github.com/Ebiroll/qemu-xtensa-esp32
mkdir qemu_esp32
cd qemu_esp32
../qemu-xtensa-esp32/configure --disable-werror --prefix=`pwd`/root --target-list=xtensa-softmmu,xtensaeb-softmmu
make
2. Dump rom1 and rom.bin
~/esp/esp-idf/components/esptool_py/esptool/esptool.py --chip esp32 -b 921600 -p /dev/ttyUSB0 dump_mem 0x40000000 0x000C2000 rom.bin
~/esp/esp-idf/components/esptool_py/esptool/esptool.py --chip esp32 -b 921600 -p /dev/ttyUSB0 dump_mem 0x3FF90000 0x00010000 rom1.bin
If you have rev3 of the rom, then it is more safe to use espressifs rom0 dump
wget https://github.com/espressif/qemu/raw/esp-develop/pc-bios/esp32-r0-rom.bin
mv esp32-r0-rom.bin rom.bin
3. Build an esp32 application
Open a new window to build example app, and set env variables
export PATH=$PATH:$HOME/esp/xtensa-esp32-elf/bin
export IDF_PATH=~/esp/esp-idf
cd esp
git clone git://github.com/Ebiroll/qemu_esp32
cd qemu_esp32
make menuconfig
> Set [*] Run FreeRTOS only on first core
> [ ] Make exception and panic handlers JTAG/OCD aware
make
4. Build the qemu_flash app to create the qemu flash image
Dont forget to check the code in toflash.c as it uses hardcoded paths.
gcc toflash.c -o qemu_flash
5. Flash the esp32flash.bin file
> ./qemu_flash build/app-template.bin
Note that this will create an 4MB empty file filled with 0xff and write
bootloader, partition table and application to this file called esp32flash.bin
This is then copied to /home/user/qemu_esp32, this file will be read by qemu at upstart.
6. In the first window, start qemu
> xtensa-softmmu/qemu-system-xtensa -d guest_errors,unimp -cpu esp32 -M esp32 -m 4M -s > io.txt
Add -S if you want halt execution until debugger is attached.
7. Optional step (start debugger)
cp qemu_esp32/bin/xtensa-esp32-elf-gdb $HOME/esp/xtensa-esp32-elf/bin/xtensa-esp32-elf-gdb.qemu
> xtensa-esp32-elf-gdb.qemu build/app-template.elf -ex 'target remote:1234'
(gdb) b bootloader_main
(gdb) b app_main
(gdb) c
When breakpoint is hit try Ctrl-X then O, also consider starting with data directory to where you cloned this
xtensa-esp32-elf-gdb.qemu --data-directory ~/esp/qemu_esp32/gdb
Or to debug the bootloader,
xtensa-esp32-elf-gdb.qemu build/bootloader/bootloader.elf -ex 'target remote:1234'
(gdb) b bootloader_main
Remember to start qemu with -S (capital S) this will halt qemu execusion until debugger is attached.
A fun example with an emulated 1306 display
cd examples/06_1306_interactive
ln -s ../../components/ components
make
gcc ../toflash.c -o qemu_flash
./qemu_flash build/app-template.bin
Start qemu
Connect to emulated UART1
nc 127.0.0.1 8881
Press return
However the latest changes in esp-idf makes i2c emulation very slow.
A much faster but non-interactive example is the 06_duino example.
It runs fine with the latest version of esp-idf
This uses the espressif version under windows, rom provided by espressif
docker build -t qemu_esp32/ubuntu -f .\Dockerfile .

Although I have not so much time to update this, I want to point at the following interesting projects. Docker container. https://github.com/mluis/qemu-esp32 QEMU with a TTGo TDisplay https://github.com/a159x36/qemu Espressifs latest qemu release (QEMU 6.1.0) https://github.com/espressif/qemu/releases/tag/esp-develop-20210826
Updated original esp32-qemu to use espressifs sha calculations due to changes in latest versions of esp-idf.
Also no need to dump or use rom1.bin as they point to the same data. The reason you might want to use the original rathere than espressifs more complete implementation is:
1. that it boots much faster on slower computer
2. Works much better with the xtensa-esp32-elf-gdb.qemu debugger
3. Boots from you own romdump
Updated latest version with espressifs latest qemu changes, it now runs qemu 5.2 (New build system) S2 emulation has regressed, but probably good enough to step into the rom dump. I also added the ssd1306 device on the i2c bus, on address 0x3C, not fully implemented but examples should work. https://cdn-shop.adafruit.com/datasheets/SSD1306.pdf
git clone https://github.com/Ebiroll/qemu-xtensa-esp32s2
mkdir qemu_esp32s2 ;cd qemu_esp32s2
../qemu-xtensa-esp32s2/configure --target-list=xtensa-softmmu,riscv32-softmmu --enable-debug --enable-sanitizers --disable-strip --disable-capstone --disable-vnc --enable-gcrypt --disable-seccomp
qemu-system-xtensa -M esp32s2 -s -d unimp,guest_errors,page -nographic
xtensa-esp32s2-elf-gdb build/led.elf -ex 'target remote:1234'
(gdb) monitor quit
Remember to use toflash-s2.c as sha calculations is not implemented.
The esp32 emulation has gotten better with i2c support. I also added an ssd1306 to the i2c bus 0. adress 0x3c
cp ../qemu-xtensa-esp32s2/pc-bios/esp32-v3-rom.bin .
xtensa-softmmu/qemu-system-xtensa -M esp32 -drive file=esp32flash.bin,if=mtd,format=raw -s -serial stdio -global driver=timer.esp32.timg,property=wdt_disable,value=true
esp32s2 emulation. Starting to work, SHA256 does not work properly, so checksums are patched to 0 byt the toflash-s2.c file.
Rom dumps
(gdb) dump binary memory drom0.bin 0x3ffa0000 0x3ffaffff
(gdb) dump binary memory s2rom.bin 0x40000000 0x4001ffff
The data rom is equal to the second half of s2rom.bin but can be convenient to have
The s2rom.bin requires some patching as done by s2rompatch.c
Compile and run it to patch s2rom.bin

Espressifs implementation is a bit more accurate but a bit slow on my old computer. They have also released a useable rom file. If you want to run gdb I recommend the gdb version from the bin directory here. This shows a way of how I compile the espressif version in parallell. To build a parallell qeum_espressif qemu binary with espressifs implementation do:
cd
git clone https://github.com/Ebiroll/qemu-xtensa-esp32 -b esp-develop esp-develop
mkdir qemu_espressif
cd qemu_espressif
../esp-develop/configure --target-list=xtensa-softmmu --enable-debug --enable-sanitizers --disable-strip --disable-capstone --disable-vnc
make
cp ../esp-develop/pc-bios/esp32-r0-rom.bin .
Make sure you have a usable esp32flash.bin file then start with
xtensa-softmmu/qemu-system-xtensa -nographic -M esp32 -drive file=esp32flash.bin,if=mtd,format=raw -s
Espressif has released a qemu for esp32 https://github.com/espressif/qemu However they have not yet released a usable rom.elf Here is one which might be usable in the future, https://dl.espressif.com/dl/esp32_rom.elf
This version is more accurate than my implementation but lacks some features like 1306 emulation. In the future, I will start using this instead and have created a branch, esp-develop. After clone you can switch to this branch, git checkout esp-develop
But then you have to start qemu with, xtensa-softmmu/qemu-system-xtensa -nographic -M esp32 -drive file=esp32flash.bin,if=mtd,format=raw
you must also copy the file esp32-r0-rom.bin cp ../qemu-xtensa-esp32/pc-bios/esp32-r0-rom.bin .
To start with different boot strapping value (boot) -global driver=esp32.gpio,property=strap_mode,value=0x0f
To connect the serial deviice to port 8880, However I was not able to flash. -serial tcp::8880,server,nowait
export ESPPORT=socket://localhost:8880
idf.py flash
To start with the openeth emulation, add -nic user,model=open_eth,hostfwd=tcp::10080-:80 -s

Head and version 3.2 works fine, If you want to use ethernet emulation in earlier version you must patch this https://github.com/Ebiroll/qemu_esp32/commit/bc2b6e2f50261885751ebf2335a82325eafbc656
Qemu also works with esp-adf
export ADF_PATH=~/esp/esp-adf
Or as in my case, I use the released 1.0 version
export ADF_PATH=~/esp/esp-adf-v1.0
Change the Makfile
PROJECT_NAME := your_proj
include $(ADF_PATH)/project.mk
Make sure to disable,
component config → ESP32-specific → SPI RAM config
PSI RAM emulation is next on the todo list.
[*] Ignore PSRAM when not found
As the bootloader uses HW accelerated sha256 calculations this is now emulated by qemu,checksum must be correct and should not be overwritten with 000
Booting from emulated flash! This is very cool. Now IT IS MANDATORY to have a proper flash file , ets_unpack_flash_code is not longer patched , qemu now relies on flash and MMU emulation.
Not that esp-idf is constantly being updated and you must keep the qemu source updated to keep it working.
Serial flasher config ---> Flash size (4 MB)
However it seems that latest chages in the bootloader (esp-idf) breaks this, flash hash caclulations dont match. This is because bootloader always use hardware acceleration to calculate the hash and qemu does not emulate hardware SHA5 calculation.
Component config --->
mbedTLS --->
[ ] Enable hardware SHA acceleration
Previously the toflash.c program overwrote the checksum with 00000
this must not happen anymore as the bootloader relies on proper hash of the image
if (patch_hash==1) {
for (j=0;j<33;j++)
{
tmp_data[file_size-j]=0;
}
}
To create a esp32flash.bin file build qemu_flash tool found in this repository.
gcc toflash.c -o qemu_flash
Then run the ./qemu_flash program.
./qemu_flash build/app-template.bin
Note that you have to use the .bin file as argument. This will generate a flash image with bootloader, partition information and flash file that the bootloder can use boot the proper application from.
You can also start with a flash dump image, then remove this from the toflash.c file.
// Overwrites esp32flash.bin file
system("dd if=/dev/zero bs=1M count=4 | tr \"\\000\" \"\\377\" > esp32flash.bin");
This way you can use calibratrion data from the flash file if you patch hw/xtensa/esp32.c of qemu to match your flash dump. The printouts are very helpful to allow you to update to correct values.
case 0x5a004:
printf("EFUSE MAC\n");
return 0xc400c870;
break;
case 0x5a008:
printf("EFUSE MAC\n");
return 0xffda240a;
break;
You no longer need to give application as kernel parameter.

Works pretty well in linux now
By following the instructions here, I added esp32 to qemu. http://wiki.linux-xtensa.org/index.php/Xtensa_on_QEMU
prerequisites Debian/Ubuntu:
sudo apt-get install libpixman-1-0 libpixman-1-dev
prerequisites Redhat/Centos yum install glib2-devel pixman-devel
git clone git://github.com/Ebiroll/qemu-xtensa-esp32
Requires that you run a patched gdb to run in qemu. If not you will get Remote 'g' packet reply is too long: The key to using the original gdb, is to set num_regs = 104, in core-esp32.c However debugging c-functions in the elf file requires a patched qemu. In the bin directory there are patched versions of xtensa-esp32-elf-gdb. You can also build your own. Just apply this patch, https://github.com/jcmvbkbc/xtensa-toolchain-build/blob/master/fixup-gdb.sh Another option is to build from this prepatched gdb crosstool source, https://github.com/Ebiroll/gdb One has to create a link or copy ar to x86_64-build_pc-linux-gnu-ar Also dont forget to prepare this version for use with with qemu. cd gdb cp xtensa-config.c.qemu xtensa-config.c ./configure --without-guile --target=xtensa-esp32-elf
cd esp
git clone https://github.com/espressif/binutils-gdb
cd binutils-gdb
git checkout remotes/origin/esp32-2018r1_gdb-8_1
./configure --without-guile --host=x86_64-build_pc-linux-gnu --target=xtensa-esp32-elf --disable-werror
make
When feeling lucky apply this patch
https://github.com/jcmvbkbc/meta-zephyr-sdk/commit/42be8b49d5915a0bb94ef8dfbde50fe130e7a772
mkdir ../qemu_esp32
cd ../qemu_esp32
Then run configure as,
../qemu-xtensa-esp32/configure --disable-werror --prefix=`pwd`/root --target-list=xtensa-softmmu --python=/usr/bin/python2
../qemu-xtensa-esp32/configure --disable-werror --prefix=`pwd`/root --target-list=xtensa-softmmu --python=/usr/bin/python2
The goal was to run the app-template.elf and connect the debugger to qemu to allow debugging of the application. It works quite well and as the rom is patched slightly it its possible to run the elf file that is generated by the esp-idf qemu. However you must use requir theese configutation items.
Dont use autodetect fom Main XTAL frequency
Main XTAL frequency (40 MHz) --->
[ ] Make exception and panic handlers JTAG/OCD aware
This is no longer required but recomended.
[*] Run FreeRTOS only on first core,
[ ] Initialize PHY in startup code
[ ] Make exception and panic handlers JTAG/OCD aware
Optimization level (Debug)
Not sure if this is necessary,
Xtensa timer to use as the FreeRTOS tick source (Timer 0 (int 6, level 1))
Now I have also added the possibility to initialize PHY in startup code.
This however reqires that you match the EFUSE mac adresses with the ones dumped from the flash dump. (esp32.c)
case 0x5a004:
printf("EFUSE MAC\n");
return 0xc400c870;
break;
case 0x5a008:
printf("EFUSE MAC\n");
return 0xffda240a;
break;
Starting wifi works sometimes but its better to do like this, if you want to be able to flash and run
the same app in qemu.
#include "emul_ip.h"
if (is_running_qemu()) {
printf("Running in qemu\n");
ESP_ERROR_CHECK( esp_event_loop_init(esp32_wifi_eventHandler, NULL) );
//task_lwip_init(NULL);
xTaskCreatePinnedToCore(task_lwip_init, "lwip_init", 2*4096, NULL, 14, NULL, 0);
}
else {
wifi_task(NULL);
}
UART emulation is not so good as output is primaraly on stderr. Also interrupts are not emulated so well. esp32.c creates a 3 threads with socket on port 8880-8882 tto allow connect to the serial port over a socket. In the starting terminal you can see output from all uarts mixed. However if you want to see output from only one uart, do, nc 127.0.0.1 8880 or nc 127.0.0.1 8881 for uart 0.
When running I advise that you build a patched gdb as described in this document or use the gdb provided in the /bin directory (linux 64 bit). This improves the debugging exerience quite a bit. The xtensa-esp32-elf-gdb.arch is built for arch linux.
When debugging in the rom you can use,
(gdb) add-symbol-file rom.elf 0x40000000
An even better rom file is located here
https://dl.espressif.com/dl/esp32_rom.elf
This also works for the original gdb and gives you all names of the functions in rom0.
You can get and compile your own elf file from rom.S found here, https://github.com/cesanta/mongoose-os/tree/6ccea79b028d8d76191b9c64855ef40c67e096b8/platforms/esp32/src/rom Or build your own from esp-idf/components/esp32/ld/esp32.rom.ld: // sort -k 5 esp32.rom.ld | perl -npe 's/=/,/; s/;//' xtensa-esp32-elf-gcc -Wl,-N,-Ttext,0x40000000 -nostdlib rom.S -o rom.elf
To setup esp-idf do,
git clone --recursive https://github.com/espressif/esp-idf.git
git pull & git submodule update --recursive git submodule update --init
export PATH=$PATH:$HOME/esp/xtensa-esp32-elf/bin
export IDF_PATH=~/esp/esp-idf
You can most likely use the latest version of esp-idf, just dont start wifi and run on one core only. Dual core should work because esp_crosscore_int_send_yield is implemented. Also rtc_clk_xtal_freq_get works. However one thread sometimes seems to get stuck waiting for s_flash_op_complete, Workaround until the problem is fixed,
(gdb) thread 2
(gdb) set s_flash_op_complete=1
(gdb) c
You can probably use head of esp-idf
This version works anyways,
git checkout release/v3.3
git submodule update --recursive
git submodule update --init
If you get strange errors like,
No rulte to create, esp/esp-idf/tools/kconfig/conf-idf
try cd $IDF_PATH/tools/kconfig;
make clean
make
For a short time there was a divide by zero.

The emulation has also been some problems with do_global_ctors(). should be available at this location... 0x3f409fb8 __init_array_start , however nvs reuses 0x3f40000 as I have not gotten it to recognize that this is already mmapped by the bootloader. However when running full bootloader
Or you can try version 3.2
git checkout v3.2
git submodule update --init
Or you can try version 3.1.2
git checkout v3.1.2
git submodule update --init
Or you can try version 2.0
git checkout v2.0
git submodule update --init
Anyways, things will probably work much better now.

It is because you try to start wifi
Now there is simple flash emulation in qemu. You need the file esp32flash.bin to be in the same directory as rom.bin & rom1.bin. If no flashfile exists, an empty file will be created.
~/esp/esp-idf/components/esptool_py/esptool/esptool.py --baud 92600 read_flash 0 0x400000 esp32flash.bin
Another possibility in order to create a proper flash file is by running the following.
Double check the toflash.c program as it copies the generated esp32flash.bin file to the directory where we start qemu
It also assumes partitioning according to partitions_singleapp.bin
gcc toflash.c -o qemu_flash
./qemu_flash build/app-template.bin
To get more correct mmap behaviour now the bootloader runs first.
This emulation reqires that you generate a proper flash file first. Serial flasher config ---> Flash size (4 MB)
Then run the ./qemu_flash program. (described earlier) ./qemu_flash build/app-template.bin
Note that you have to use the .bin file as argument. This will generate a flash image with bootloader, partition information and flash file that the bootloder can use boot the proper application from.
To debug you can use, xtensa-esp32-elf-gdb.qemu build/app-template.elf -ex 'target remote:1234' (gdb) b app_main
Or to debug the bootloader, xtensa-esp32-elf-gdb.qemu build/bootloader/bootloader.elf -ex 'target remote:1234' (gdb) b bootloader_main (gdb) b bootloader_mmap
#define DPORT_PRO_FLASH_MMU_TABLE ((volatile uint32_t) 0x3FF10000)
PAGE 0 is the content of 0x3FF10000 the virtual adress ranged mapped would be adress 0x3f400000 - 0x3f410000
Page 1 would be adress 0x3f410000 - 0x3f420000
I guess paddr=2 would means that this virtual range is mapped to flash content at 0x20000?
This is output from spi_flash_mmap_dump(); after running the second stage bootloader but before nv_init().
Note that the enable phy at startup would call nv_init before app_main.
spi_flash_mmap_dump()
Display information about mapped regions.
This function lists handles obtained using spi_flash_mmap, along with range of pages allocated to each handle. It also lists all non-zero entries of MMU table and corresponding reference counts.
page 0: refcnt=1 paddr=2
page 77: refcnt=1 paddr=4
page 78: refcnt=1 paddr=5
Here is the bootloader output from loading the app partition.

Now you can also debug the bootloder with qemu. There used to be some problem with the elf file, but its fixed with the later versions of esp-idf,

The idea was to emulate a 1306 display over i2c. Almost there but need improved emulation to get 06_duino example running. This example uses more ssd1306 commands than the other examples. [[https://github.com/Ebiroll/qemu_esp32/blob/master/img/1306.jpg] ]

Then you have probably not downloaded rom files or put them in another directory than where you start qemu.
I got my ESP32-dev board from Adafruit. https://dl.espressif.com/dl/schematics/ESP32-Core-Board-V2_sch.pdf I have made two dumps and mapped the dumps into the files rom.bin & rom1.bin The code in esp32.c also patches the function ets_unpack_flash_code. Instead of loading the code it sets the user_code_start variable (0x3ffe0400) This will later be used by the rom to start the loaded elf file. The functions SPIEraseSector & SPIWrite are also patched to return 0. The rom function -- ets_unpack_flash_code is located at 0x40007018.
The serial device should also be emulated differently. Now serial output goes to stderr. All io calls are printed on stdout thats why you must do > io.txt Opening anoter terminal and doing tail -f io.txt allows you to see what io ports are accessed.

The RER, WUR and RUR instructions are not implemented in qemu yet,
My version has some hadling of these instructions.
When configuring, choose
Component config --->
FreeRTOS --->
[*] Run FreeRTOS only on first core
ESP32-specific config --->
[ ] Initialize PHY in startup code
However, it might not be necessary to run o only first core anymore. This patch seems to do the trick. https://github.com/espressif/esp-idf/commit/47b8f78cb0e15fa43647788a808dac353167a485

Some i/o register name mapping in esp32.c is probably wrong. The values returned are also many times wrong. I did this mapping very quickly with grep to get a better understanding of what the rom was doing. I have made the emulation based on what the code expects, should have done more by reading the document.

Please use other method (esptool.py), its easier and faster. This is saved for historical reasons and for the screen instructions. It can also be used to dump the content as seen by cpu1. Set the environment properly. Build the romdump app and flash it. Use i.e screen as serial terminal.
screen /dev/ttyUSB0 115200
Ctrl-A then H (save output)
Press and hold the boot button, then press reset. This puts the ESP to download mode.
Ctrl-A then \ (exit, detach)
make flash
screen /dev/ttyUSB0 115200
Ctrl-A then H (save output)
press reset on ESP to get start.
When finished trim the capturefile (remove all before and after the dump data) and call it, test.log Notice that there are two dumps search for ROM and ROM1 Compile the dump to rom program.
gcc torom.c -o torom
torom
If successfull you will have a binary rom dump, rom.bin
Then also create the file rom1.bin
If you start with second part and then do
mv rom.bin rom1.bin
Then you can do the first part
Those two files will be loaded by qemu and must be in same directory as you start qemu.
Now it also works for esp32 debugging. (2.10.0)
git clone git://git.qemu.org/qemu.git
cd qemu
This is probably no longer necessary. git submodule update --init dtc
However uart emulation may cause this behaviour.

Another version for qemu exists here https://github.com/OSLL/qemu-xtensa,
However I think the important stuff has been mereged into HEA of qemu.
git clone https://github.com/OSLL/qemu-xtensa -b xtensa-esp32
but requires that you run a patched gdb to run gdb with qemu. If not you will get Remote 'g' packet reply is too long:
The key to using the original gdb, is to set num_regs = 104, in core-esp32.c
git clone https://github.com/Ebiroll/qemu_esp32.git qemu_esp32_patch
cd qemu_esp32_patch/qemu-patch
./maketar.sh
cp qemu-esp32.tar ../../qemu
cd ../../qemu
tar xvf qemu-esp32.tar
in qemu source tree, manually add to makefiles:
hw/xtensa/Makefile.objs
obj-y += esp32.o
obj-y += MemoryMapped.o
target/xtensa/Makefile.objs
obj-y += core-esp32.o
If running qemu head (2.9.0) make sure to disable this. from the esp32 options

This seems fixed now, https://github.com/espressif/esp-idf/commit/47b8f78cb0e15fa43647788a808dac353167a485 You should be able to run on two cores.
This is now emulated better,
void esp_crosscore_int_send_yield(int coreId) {
assert(coreId<portNUM_PROCESSORS);
//Mark the reason we interrupt the other CPU
portENTER_CRITICAL(&reasonSpinlock);
reason[coreId]|=REASON_YIELD;
portEXIT_CRITICAL(&reasonSpinlock);
//Poke the other CPU.
if (coreId==0) {
WRITE_PERI_REG(DPORT_CPU_INTR_FROM_CPU_0_REG, DPORT_CPU_INTR_FROM_CPU_0);
} else {
WRITE_PERI_REG(DPORT_CPU_INTR_FROM_CPU_1_REG, DPORT_CPU_INTR_FROM_CPU_1);
}
This results in
io write dc,1 if coreId==0
io write e0,1 if coreId==1
Good information here, https://github.com/espressif/esp-idf/blob/master/components/freertos/port/xtensa/readme_xtensa.txt
The timer tick is handled here,
_frxt_timer_int ()
This calls the
xTaskIncrementTick function.
More about the boot of the romdumps
In the bin directory there is an improved gdb version. The following patch was applied, https://github.com/jcmvbkbc/xtensa-toolchain-build/blob/master/fixup-gdb.sh To use it properly you must increase the num_regs = 104 to i.e. 172 in core-esp32.c
The base of all this is done by Max Filippov https://github.com/OSLL/qemu-xtensa
#Another version of qemu with esp32 exists here, However the work is not yet finished.
git clone https://github.com/OSLL/qemu-xtensa
cd qemu-xtensa
git checkout xtensa-esp32
git submodule update --init dtc
cd ..
mkdir build-qemu-xtensa
cd build-qemu-xtensa
../qemu-xtensa/configure --disable-werror --prefix=`pwd`/root --target-list=xtensa-softmmu
There exists networking support of an emulated opencore network device,
components/emul_ip/lwip_ethoc.c is the driver.
All files in the net/ direcory is just for reference, they are currently not used.
To get emulated network to work with 3.1 version of esp-idf you must patch esp-idf components/lwip/port/freertos/sys_arch.c
sys_init(void) ...
//esp_vfs_lwip_sockets_register();
Dont try running emulated_net(); on actual hardware.
Probably not harmful but I put the emulated hardware here, i uesd the DR_REG_EMAC_BASE
#define OC_BASE 0x3ff69000
#define OC_DESC_START 0x3ff69400
#define OC_BUF_START 0x3FFF8000 //pool 6 blk 1 <- can be used as trace memory
TODO! Check if it is safe to use this memory??
This could possibly screw up your data.
Note this one components/esp32/include/soc/soc.h
DR_REG_EMAC_BASE 0x3ff69000
Here are the pins needed to get ethernet support.
http://www.smartarduino.com/esp32/esp32_chip_pin_list_en.pdf
Note that this could be outdated.
The examples/14_basic_webserver worked when I tried it,
Start qemu like this,
xtensa-softmmu/qemu-system-xtensa -d guest_errors,unimp -cpu esp32 -M esp32 -m 4M -net nic,model=vlan0 -net user,id=simnet,ipver4=on,net=192.168.4.0/24,host=192.168.4.40,hostfwd=tcp::10080-192.168.4.3:80 -net dump,file=/tmp/vm0.pcap -s > io.txt
Then start browser on http://127.0.0.1:10080
It is a good idea to save the original xtensa-esp32-elf-gdb as the one in the bin directory works best with qemu
Component config --->
ESP32-specific config --->
Panic handler behaviour (Invoke GDBStub) --->
esp32.c creates a 3 threads with socket on port 8880-8882 tto allow connect to the serial port over a socket.
This allows connecting to panic handler gdbstub. You can also use this to debug the debugstub code.
xtensa-esp32-elf-gdb.sav build/app-template.elf -ex 'target remote:8880'
Another solution if you are running qemu-gdb is to set a breakpoint in the stub.
(gdb)b esp_gdbstub_panic_handler
or if you use default settings
(gdb)b commonErrorHandler
(gdb) where (or up) will show you what the problem is
(gdb)b _xt_panic
This gdbstub panic handler is also nice to have when running on target.
xtensa-esp32-elf-gdb build/app-template.elf -b 115200 -ex 'target remote /dev/ttyUSB0'
I noticed that memory got overwritten as priv_ethoc suddenly contained faulty iobase. Memory access breakpoints comes very handy for these tyoes of errors.
To find a variable based on location in memory
(gdb) info symbol 0x40154e6c
To track memory writes
(gdb) watch priv_ethoc.io_base
To track memory reads
(gdb) rwatch priv_ethoc.io_base
To track memory reads and writes
(gdb) awatch *0x3ffe0400
Together with add-symbol-file rom.elf 0x40000000 this allows you to easy find where a register is accessed.
Here is an important register. DPORT_PRO_CACHE_CTRL_REG
(gdb) awatch *0x3ff00040
(gdb) info watchpoints
Dont forget that you can reset qemu hardware and start again.
In order to invoke the correct interrupts this is some useful info
esp_intr_alloc(ETS_TIMER1_INTR_SOURCE, 0, &frc_timer_isr, NULL, NULL);
io write 1e4,2
esp_intr_alloc(ETS_TG0_WDT_LEVEL_INTR_SOURCE, 0, task_wdt_isr, NULL, NULL);
io write 144,3
ret = esp_intr_alloc(ETS_I2C_EXT0_INTR_SOURCE, intr_alloc_flags, fn, arg, handle);
int intr=get_free_int(flags, cpu, force);
intr=12
xt_set_interrupt_handler(intr, handler, arg);
intr_matrix_set(cpu, source, intr);
io write 1c8,c
To make debugging the rom functions there is a file rom.elf that contains debug information for the rom file. It was created with the help from this project, https://github.com/jcmvbkbc/esp-elf-rom This rom.elf also works with the original gdb with panic handler gdbstub.
xtensa-softmmu/qemu-system-xtensa -d guest_errors,unimp -cpu esp32 -M esp32 -m 4M -kernel ~/esp/qemu_esp32/build/app-template.elf -s -S > io.txt
xtensa-esp32-elf-gdb build/app-template.elf -ex 'target remote:1234'
(gdb) add-symbol-file rom.elf 0x40000000
(gdb) b start_cpu0_default
(gdb) c
(gdb) b app_main
The .gdbinit file contains code to list all tasks, freertos_show_threads It will list all the tasks, hande,name,core,stack,stack_usage It will also list current location of the $pc Take care that because of how the Xtensa core works, the leftmost digit of the hex number may be off and you have to manually correct it to '4'. For example, for $pc = 0x800820a2, you would want to look up 0x400820a2. list *0x400820a2, then you can see what the ipc0 thread is doing. Note that --terminating-- , in this example it is empty, no threads are terminating.

The MMU will map flash data/instruction to the processors depending on how these are set.
/* Flash MMU table for PRO CPU */
//#define DPORT_PRO_FLASH_MMU_TABLE ((volatile uint32_t*) 0x3FF10000)
4 regions with 64
/* Flash MMU table for APP CPU */
//#define DPORT_APP_FLASH_MMU_TABLE ((volatile uint32_t*) 0x3FF12000)
MMU_BLOCK0_VADDR 0x3f400000 // Dont use this one. Must be mapped to flash.rodata
MMU_BLOCK1_VADDR 0x3f410000
..
MMU_BLOCK50_VADDR 0x3f720000
..
MMU_BLOCK63_VADDR 0x3fA30000
qemu emulates flash mapping by looking at the X_FLASH_MMU_TABLE[]
A value of 2 in DPORT_PRO_FLASH_MMU_TABLE[1] means that
contents of the flash file at location 0x20000-0x30000 will be mapped to virtual address 0x3f410000-0x3f420000
I think that from BLOCK50 and up memory is mapped as instructions. BLOCK0-49 is data.
Offset, length, name , data
0x1000 , 2000 , Bootloader
0x8000 , >100 , Partition table
0x9000 , 6000 nvs , wifi auth data
0xf000 , 1000 phy_init rf data, calibration data
0x10000 , >50000 factory, application
0x3E8000 is the end for a 4MB flash
Old locations? Used in olfer version of the idf.
0x6000 , 6000 nvs , wifi auth data
Note that the esp32 can save rf calibration data for subsequent startups
qemu uses a simplified memory map, (subject to change)
0x2000_0000 - 0x4000_0000 ram
0x4000_0000 - 0x40BF_FFFF ram1
0x3ff0_0000 - 0x3ff0_0000 system_io
The rom dumps are just copied into ram, but is probably protected.
Also some of the ram was also dumped and is restored, this is probably a good thing.
0x3FF9_0000 - 0x3FF9_FFFF rom1.bin
0x4000_0000 - 0x40c1_FFFF rom.bin
0x5000_0000 - 0x5008_0000 ulp ram
0x6000_0000 - wifi io, undocumented i/o
flash mmu emulation is done by copying from the file esp32flash.bin when the registers DPORT_PRO_FLASH_MMU_TABLE are written to.

The on-chip memory is governed by fixed-function MPUs, configurable MPUs, and MMUs:
Both the upper 128 KB of SRAM0 and the upper 128 KB of SRAM2 are governed by an MMU. 128 KB 0x4008_0000 0x4009_FFFF SRAM0 MMU 128 KB 0x3FFC_0000 0x3FFD_FFFF SRAM2 MMU
The internal RAM MMUs divide the memory range they govern into 16 pages. The page size is configurable as 8 KB, 4 KB and 2 KB. When the page size is 8 KB, the 16 pages span the entire 128 KB memory region; when the page size is 4 KB or 2 KB, a non-MMU-covered region of 64 or 96 KB, respectively, will exist at the end of the memory space.
The address range of the first 32 KB of the ROM 0 (0x4000_0000 ~ 0x4000_7FFF) can be remapped in order to access a part of Internal SRAM 1 that normally resides in a memory range of 0x400B_0000 ~ 0x400B_7FFF. While remapping, the 32 KB SRAM cannot be accessed by an address range of 0x400B_0000 ~ 0x400B_7FFF any more, but it can still be accessible through the data bus (0x3FFE_8000 ~ 0x3FFE_FFFF
