qemu command line:

/opt/buildbot/bin/qemu-system-sh4 -M r2d -kernel ./arch/sh/boot/zImage \
        -drive file=rootfs.ext2,if=ide \
        -append "root=/dev/sda console=ttySC1,115200 noiotrap"
        -serial null -serial stdio -net nic,model=rtl8139 -net user
        -nographic -monitor null

Poweroff log in mmotm (v3.19-rc5-417-gc64429b):

/ # poweroff

[ nothing else happens until I kill the qemu session ]

The "halt" command does not work either.

--
The message "The system is going down NOW" is from the init process.
If I use "kill -12 1" instead of "halt" or "poweroff", the system does
shut down as expected. "poweroff -f" also works.

Trying to debug this further, I noticed that the "ps" command hangs
as well, so the problem is not limited to poweroff or halt.

I'll be happy to debug this further, I just have no idea where to start.

Thanks,
Guenter
