sbrsh seems to skip the next non-option argument (= target
program
name?) when --sbox-call is specified. I don't know why.

Hi,
Is there any way to pass flags to qemu (when it's run automatically by way of executing an arm executable)? I didn't see anything in the variables.txt file (like the *EXTRA_ARGS* type vars for the compiler, etc.).
Thanks,
Diane

I'll implement it when I get the chance.

Actually, it's something I need right away. I'd be fine with trying to implement it myself, but I don't really know what would need changing. If you could point me in the right direction, that'd be fine. Or, could you tell me how to (from your bug report) "pass in one extra argument by abusing the SBOX_CPUTRANSPARENCY_FILTER";?
Thanks,
Diane

I'm acutally working on it right now.

export
SBOX_CPUTRANSPARENCY_FILTER="--the-parameter"

Thanks! I had actually just tracked down misc_runner, so I was starting to look at misc_runner.c myself, but if the fix will be available soon, I guess I can stop doing that 
BTW, I tried passing the flag in using the var, but it didn't work.

It should.. Anyway, my change is now in darcs and should be
auto-building.

Hi Timo & Jussi,
Thanks very much for turning that around so quickly. Unfortunately, my qemu still isn't working for me -- but I think I may know why now. In looking through your repository, I found a number of patch files for the qemu sources. Are the qemu's that are used in scratchbox all built specifically for it, with these patches applied? I have a
0.9.0 qemu that I doubt was built that way. I only have the binary, not the source that was used to build it -- but a 'strings' on it doesn't turn up -sbox-call, like it does for the qemu's that came with scratchbox (which I was looking for because of this line in misc_runner.c: vec[i++] = "--sbox-call";).
I noticed that for 0.9.0 in your repository, there's only one patch file (to the Makefile, to build static), so do you apply all the patches for the previous versions as well?
Sorry to be a bother, but I really need to get this working (this qemu supports additional features I need that aren't available in the qemu I'm currently using). I can ask for the one I have to get rebuilt, with the scratchbox patches applied, if that's what needs to be done.
Thanks again,
Diane

Snapshot from darcs with Timo's patch is avaiable from [1].

Have you tried the cputransp devkit present in the same
location [1]?
That snapshot contains qemu-0.8.2 with additional patches
and since
cputransp version 1.0.3 and onward, there's a cvs snapshot
of qemu
available. Perhaps the patched version of 0.8.2 or the cvs
snapshot
could be of use?

No, the modifications to the qemu I have are not available anywhere else. If it needs to get built with the scratchbox patches applied to it, I can probably get that done, but I need to know if that's the case, and if so, whether all the scratchbox patches get applied, up to and including the one for
0.9.0.
Thanks,
Diane
