QEMU SIFIVE reading from stdin hangs Description of problem: I have a simple test program (C and ASM) that reads from stdin. When i was using the qemu provided by Ubuntu, QEMU emulator version 8.0.4 (Debian 1:8.0.4+dfsg-1ubuntu3.23.10.5), my test was working, and was able to read bytes from stdin. Using the latest Qemu from git, breaks my test. I can still print, but now reading hangs, like its always waiting for input but never getting it. My guess is that this commit breaks my code: https://github.com/qemu/qemu/commit/6ee7ba1b8a10bd8eb1d3b918eaaf9f832a51adb4 Before the above commit, `qemu_chr_fe_set_handlers` was being called, and that is what allowed the default behavior of reading from stdin is on by default? from sifive_uart.c ``` qemu_chr_fe_set_handlers(&s->chr, sifive_uart_can_rx, sifive_uart_rx, sifive_uart_event, sifive_uart_be_change, s, NULL, true); ``` Steps to reproduce: 1. compile simple C program that calls `read` reading a single byte from stdin 2. do not initialize UART options 3. run in QEMU, send input, hangs. Additional information: Other examples online, like riscv-probe, use a uart init function like below: ``` static void sifive_uart_init() { uart = (int *)(void *)getauxval(SIFIVE_UART0_CTRL_ADDR); uint32_t uart_freq = getauxval(UART0_CLOCK_FREQ); uint32_t baud_rate = getauxval(UART0_BAUD_RATE); uint32_t divisor = uart_freq / baud_rate - 1; uart[UART_REG_DIV] = divisor; uart[UART_REG_TXCTRL] = UART_TXEN; uart[UART_REG_RXCTRL] = UART_RXEN; uart[UART_REG_IE] = 0; } ``` However, when I was using QEMU 8.0.4, i did not have to write a function like above to init UART, because stdin and stdout were working out of the box. Below is my C and ASM:
