[Qemu-discuss] testing qemu-armv-1.3.1

[Nehal Omran]

Hello,
i just wanted to port an elf file to qemu-arm cortex-a9 ..

the command usage is just

usage: qemu-arm [options] program [arguments...]
so i used that :

qemu-arm -cpu cortex-a9 myprog.elf

(( i got :qemu: uncaught target signal 4 (Illegal instruction) – core dumped

Illegal instruction   ))

i used xilix-arm-gcc compiler target for cortex-a9-based zynq 7000 board

 is it due to elf file or wrong usage of qemu-arm

what could make this error and how i could understand qemu errors in general to avoid misunderstanding for further usages .

thanks you
