Can we have a detailed comment explaining (a) what the hardware does (b) why we're doing it differently (c) what we would need to fix elsewhere in QEMU to be able to change this code to match the hardware? I think most of that information has come out in this email thread, but it's easy for that kind of thing to get forgotten six months or a year down the line when somebody's looking at the code and the h/w spec and wondering why they don't match up... thanks -- PMM

The sabrelite machine model used by qemu-system-arm is based on the Freescale/NXP i.MX6Q processor. This SoC has an on-board ethernet controller which is supported in QEMU using the imx_fec.c module (actually called imx.enet for this model.) The include/hw/arm/fsm-imx6.h file defines the interrupt vectors for the imx.enet device like this: #define FSL_IMX6_ENET_MAC_1588_IRQ 118 #define FSL_IMX6_ENET_MAC_IRQ 119 According to https://www.nxp.com/docs/en/reference-manual/IMX6DQRM.pdf, page 225, in Table 3-1. ARM Cortex A9 domain interrupt summary, interrupts are as follows. 150 ENET MAC 0 IRQ 151 ENET MAC 0 1588 Timer interrupt where 150 - 32 == 118 151 - 32 == 119 In other words, the vector definitions in the fsl-imx6.h file are reversed. Fixing the interrupts alone causes problems with older Linux kernels: The Ethernet interface will fail to probe with Linux v4.9 and earlier. Linux v4.1 and earlier will crash due to a bug in Ethernet driver probe error handling. This is a Linux kernel problem, not a qemu problem: the Linux kernel only worked by accident since it requested both interrupts. For backward compatibility, generate the Ethernet interrupt on both interrupt lines. This was shown to work from all Linux kernel releases starting with v3.16.
