That is awesome.
As for setting up a development environment: on one machine I have written a network driver that I then used to copy its source off that machine, which was fairly satisfying, but not necessarily the most convenient way of doing things. It kind of depends on the hardware available and what you want to transfer. For example, it may be possible to transfer files using CDs or even raw floppies. I don't think anyone has transferred files over serial in a while, but I could be wrong..
I think it would be awesome too but I'm having second thoughts about porting stuff from Linux.
Hi Jean Baptiste,
Excuse me because my answer comes very late. I had lot of things to do.
Thank you for your answers. My laptop supports IOMMU. But I don't know how to use KVM's PCI passthrough to turn over a PCI device from the host to a QEMU guest.
Can you tell me how to do that? I think it Will be very hepfull to me. Because debugging drivers in real hardware is not easy.
Thanks.
EKA.
