I am working on ARM 9 processor with 266 Mhz with fpu support and 32 MB RAM, I run linux on it.I want to emulate it on pc ( I have both linux and windows availabe on pc ). I want to profile my cycle counts, run my cross-compiled executables directly in emulator. Is there any opensource project available to create emulator easily, How much change/code/effort does I need to write to make custom emulator with it ? It would be great if you provide me tutorials ot other reference to get kick-start.
Thanks & Regards,
Sunny.
You should give a look at QEMU. I don't understand however, why do you need a complete emulator ?
You can already a lot of profiling without emulator. What are the gains you expect from having a system emulator ?
