OK, I'll confirm that KiCad runs as expected in qemu-mips64el with this patch.  I see minimal issues (mostly around support) with this patch.  That said, as long as Jiaxun can pitch in for bug reports from Loongson
platforms, I see no issues here.  Anyone have concerns here?

Looks good to me:

 - only affects MIPS N64
 - Loongson errata are handled (IIRC that is mostly about branch delay
slots)
 - also submitted to Boost, so no regressions if we ever get back to a
state where KiCad doesn't need to ship assembler code.

Hey Tom,

Since the context switching is your code, are you opposed to this.  I
don't see any reason not to include it but you are more familiar with
this code than I.

Cheers,

Wayne

Did this get lost? Is anyone opposed to merging support for extra processors?
