We will also need to update the documentation for running on QEMU. |

This is very close to being merged, but we've unfortunately been blocked on one remaining issue: The window size is different to the Odroid-C4, and so the framebuffer has a different size. This means that our The proper solution is to have a proper sDDF device class for graphics rather than a client program (in this case MicroPython) directly writing into the framebuffer. This is what @erichchan999 is working on now, once that is in a working state we can finish this off. |
I've changed my mind. This is too useful to let it sit here. Everything works except for graphics, we can say that support is experimental on lionsos.org until we get that work. This PR will unlock all the other example systems working on QEMU as well. @Kswin01 when you have time, can you rebase this? I will make sure to get it merged quickly so there aren't any more conflicts. |

There was a problem hiding this comment.
We should sort this out before merging.
