Looks like an interesting task. I programmed a prototype:
git clone http://git.openadk.org/musl-test-framework.git
cd musl-test-framework; ./musl-test.sh
You need toolchains preinstalled. You could for example use OpenADK
glibc toolchains from here:
http://www.openadk.org/adk-toolchain.tar.xz
Or modify musl-test.sh to point to all toolchains via TCPATH/TCVENDOR.
It is tested with Qemu 1.7.0 (and required for microblaze support).
The support for microblaze is working, but I did not manage to get
the system automatically to reboot or powerdown. Any hints are
welcomed.
What do you think about it?
best regards
Waldemar
