Hi Kautuk,
Sorry for the late reply. The CI failure still exists and if tested on QEMU(7.0.0) without a gdb attached, it is possible that we get weird output on console.[1]
Another thing is that with your patch, QEMU could not exit with Ctrl a + x. This might be the reason for CI failure (timeout). Could you take a look at this?
Yet with a gdb attached, everything works as expected, So maybe we could disable semihosting as default?
Best regards, Leo
[1] The weird console output looks like below, it outputs random character without us typing anything.

I have tested it both on Qemu and Ventana's internal simulator.

days.
Thanks.

Semihosting is a mechanism that enables code running on a target to communicate and use the Input/Output facilities on a host computer that is running a debugger. This patchset adds support for semihosting in u-boot for RISCV64 targets.
CHANGES since v4:
Check arch dependencies for SEMIHOSTING as well asSPL_SEMIHOSTING
config options as per Sean's comment.
arch/riscv/lib/interrupts.c: Check for post and pre instructions of the ebreak statement whether they are as per the RISCV semihosting specification. Only then do a disable_semihosting and epc += 4 and return.Compilation and test commands for SPL and S-mode configurations

Do you have instructions on how to actually test semihosting? Does it require a JTAG debugger? But I see you are using QEMU?
