(If a feature is 75not in the list above then it is not supported, even if the real 76hardware should have it.) The ``max`` CPU enables all features. 77 78R-profile CPU architecture support 79================================== 80 81QEMU's TCG emulation support for R-profile CPUs is currently limited. 82We emulate only the Cortex-R5 and Cortex-R5F CPUs. 83 84M-profile CPU architecture support 85================================== 86 87QEMU's TCG emulation includes support for Armv6-M, Armv7-M, Armv8-M, and 88Armv8.1-M versions of the M-profile architucture. It also has support 89for the following architecture extensions: 90 91- FP (Floating-point Extension) 92- FPCXT (FPCXT access instructions) 93- HP (Half-precision floating-point instructions) 94- LOB (Low Overhead loops and Branch future) 95- M (Main Extension) 96- MPU (Memory Protection Unit Extension) 97- PXN (Privileged Execute Never) 98- RAS (Reliability, Serviceability and Availability): "minimum RAS Extension" only 99- S (Security Extension) 100- ST (System Timer Extension) 101 102For information on the specifics of these extensions, please refer 103to the `Armv8-M Arm Architecture Reference Manual 104<https://developer.arm.com/documentation/ddi0553/latest>`_. 105 106When a specific named CPU is being emulated, only those features which 107are present in hardware for that CPU are emulated. (If a feature is 108not in the list above then it is not supported, even if the real 109hardware should have it.) There is no equivalent of the ``max`` CPU for 110M-profile. 111
