This extension allows running programs in QEMU similar to running
them on a real chip:
- 'idf.py qemu' — builds and runs the program in QEMU. User gets
a QEMU instance launched, and can work with it as a normal QEMU
instance.
- 'idf.py qemu monitor' — same, but QEMU is launched in the
background, and idf_monitor runs in the foreground, showing QEMU
output. Compared to only running 'idf.py qemu' this enables, for
example, automatic backtrace decoding.
- 'idf.py qemu gdb' — launches QEMU in the background and opens an
interactive GDB prompt, connecting it to QEMU.
- 'idf.py qemu --gdb monitor' and 'idf.py gdb' in another shell:
launches QEMU in the background, keeps it suspended until GDB is
connected, and opens idf_monitor. GDB can be used in another shell
to debug the application.
