So it was only a matter of attaching the serial console at the QEMU side (a hackish patch at the end of the mail). $ qemu-system-arm --version QEMU emulator version 4.0.0 (v4.0.0-dirty) Copyright (c) 2003-2019 Fabrice Bellard and the QEMU Project developers $ qemu-system-arm -M n810 -kernel zImage -nographic Uncompressing Linux... done, booting the kernel.
