Emulation of a ARM Cortex M4 processor
.everyoneloves__top-leaderboard:empty,.everyoneloves__mid-leaderboard:empty,.everyoneloves__bot-mid-leaderboard:empty{ height:90px;width:728px;box-sizing:border-box;
}
Does QEMU support Cortex M4 emulation? Also the controller(hardware) I am trying to emulate is bare metal implementation ( FreeRTOS ), is it possible to implement such scenario in QEMU? or a OS image is must?
Edit: The better question would be does QEMU support Cortex-M4 emulation with STM32.

Thank you for your comment. I understand now I should have asked more precise question. I would have edited the question but the answer given by harrymc is really good and it would not make sense if i change the question. I have added the edit and keep in mind for future thanks :)

QEMU Documentation/Platforms/ARM
says that it does:
As well as the more common "A-profile" CPUs (which have MMUs and will run Linux) we also support the Cortex-M3 and Cortex-M4 "M-profile" CPUs (which are microcontrollers used in very embedded boards. We only have two boards which use the M-profile CPU at the moment: "lm3s811evb" and "lm3s6965evb" (which are both TI Stellaris evaluation boards).
If you are looking to run a program without ISO, this requires some work.

Thank you this is great. I'm quite new to this technology. I read that QEMU supports cortex M4 but have only TI boards as mentioned above. I'm working on ST boards with cortex M4 processor. I'm not sure if that is problem and if its supported?

If you are implementing with this board and bare metal then all you have to do is write some startup ,linker code and convert to .bin (pass as argument for kernel in QEMU command)
If not, like in my case, I had to build a "custom machine" for STM32 , implementing the peripherals and memory.Explore one such example here
