qemu-exit

Exit QEMU with user-defined code.

Quit a running QEMU session with user-defined exit code. Useful for unit or integration tests using QEMU.

AArch64

Pass the -semihosting argument to QEMU invocation, e.g.: qemu-system-aarch64 -M raspi3 -serial stdio -semihosting -kernel kernel8.img

Examples

Exit the QEMU session from anywhere in your code: rust qemu_exit::aarch64::exit_success() // QEMU binary executes `exit(0)`. qemu_exit::aarch64::exit_failure() // QEMU binary executes `exit(1)`. qemu_exit::aarch64::exit(arg) // Use a custom code. Argument must implement `Into<u64>`.

x86_64

Add the special ISA debug exit device by passing the flags: -device isa-debug-exit,iobase=0xf4,iosize=0x04

Examples

The iobase is given as a const generic: rust qemu_exit::x86::exit<{ 0xf4 }>(arg) // Use a custom code. Argument must implement `Into<u32>`.

Note

The QEMU binary will execute exit((arg << 1) | 1). This is hardcoded in the QEMU sources. Therefore, with isa-debug-exit, it is not possible to let QEMU invoke exit(0).
