I've noticed that, yes. They got me pretty far, but there's something I'm doing wrong and I haven't been able to find what. That's why the next thing I'm going to try is co-simulation.

Yes, that hasn't been a problem so far. I've written minimal implementations of a few (so far: fstat, brk, exit) as I've gone along. https://github.com/michaelmelanson/riscy/blob/master/emulato...
