[PATCH v5 0/3] Add riscv semihosting support in u-boot

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 as SPL_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.

Normally, if U-Boot makes a semihosting call and no debugger is
attached, then it will panic due to a synchronous abort
exception. This config adds an exception handler which will allow
U-Boot to recover. Say 'y' if unsure.

- bool "Support semihosting in SPL"
- depends on SPL && ARM
- help
Semihosting is a method for a target to communicate with a host
debugger. It uses special instructions which the debugger will trap
on and interpret. This allows U-Boot to read/write files, print to
the console, and execute arbitrary commands on the host system.
Enabling this option will add support for reading and writing files
on the host system. If you don't have a debugger attached then trying
to do this will likely cause U-Boot to hang. Say 'n' if you are unsure.

This patch set seems to cause some CI error. (https://source.denx.de/u-boot/custodians/u-boot-riscv/-/pipelines/13667) Could you please take a look at it?
Besides, will anything go wrong if we do not attach a debugger but enable semihosting on qemu?
Best regards, Leo

Hi Leo,
I took a look at the raw log. It seems that the test-case is outputting too many characters onto the u-boot prompt due to which the log size has gotten exceeded. Can you somehow increase the log size and then try ?
Thanks.

This patch set seems to cause some CI error. (https://source.denx.de/u-boot/custodians/u-boot-riscv/-/pipelines/13667) Could you please take a look at it?
Besides, will anything go wrong if we do not attach a debugger but enable semihosting on qemu?

Hi Kautuk,
We have tested your patchset with QEMU 7.1.0. It generally looks fine, but CI error seems to persist. https://source.denx.de/u-boot/custodians/u-boot-riscv/-/pipelines/14314
The error comes from CI testcase timed-out. The reason for the time-out is not yet confirmed, but we suspect it's because when executing under semihosting, QEMU could not exit normally. (thru ctrl+x a)
There is a seemingly relevent patchset that sits on QEMU mailing list for some time. https://lore.kernel.org/all/20220620190834.GA16887@ws2101.lin.mbt.kalray.eu/...
On the u-boot side, what do you think if we disable semihosting by default? (i.e., not adding CONFIG_SEMIHOSTING_XXX in qemu's defconfig)
Best regards, Leo

I think it is okay to disable semihosting by default. Then the user will configure it when needed. So then can you ACK the first 2 patches ? I think we can leave out the 3rd qemu config patch for now.

Hi Leo,
Thanks! I have sent a v6 of this patchset wherein I have rebased the patchset on the latest master. I have removed the last patch with default config options for qemu-riscv64 targets and have replaced it with a patch with Sean's suggestion for adding to the dependencies.
Thanks again.

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.

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

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

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

Sorry about that! I assumed everyone would know the option and decided to just upt the ordinary command to show that the semihosting changes don't impact the non-semihosting scenarios.

With that I can see U-Boot boots with the serial_semihosting driver.
U-Boot SPL on QEMU virt
// Compilation of u-boot-spl ARCH=riscv CROSS_COMPILE=riscv64-unknown-linux-gnu- make qemu-riscv64_spl_defconfig make OPENSBI=opensbi/build/platform/generic/firmware/fw_dynamic.bin // Run 64-bit u-boot-spl in qemu qemu-system-riscv64 -M virt -m 256M -display none -serial stdio

u-boot/spl/u-boot-spl.bin -device\ loader,file=u-boot/u-boot.itb,addr=0x80200000
Do you have instructions on how to actually test semihosting? Does it require a JTAG debugger? But I see you are using QEMU?
