Do you have any plans to integrate the GSM modem emulation in upstream qemu
(I ask because you are also a qemu maintainer)?

What exactly is the problem there? Qemu emulates armv5 cores for example
the versatilepb machine shows the following /proc/cpuinfo:
Processor : ARM926EJ-S rev 5 (v5l)
BogoMIPS : 235.92
Features : swp half thumb fastmult vfp edsp java
CPU implementer : 0x41
CPU architecture: 5TEJ
CPU variant : 0x0
CPU part : 0x926
CPU revision : 5
Hardware : ARM-Versatile PB
Revision : 0000
Serial : 0000000000000000
Shouldn't it also handle armv4tl code? Am I wrong when I think that emulating
an armv4 within qemu would 'just' mean disabling all armv5 instructions?
Thanks,
Marc
