Hi,
I'm trying to learn about the Linux kernel and the bare metal world on raspberry pi 4. After writing a simple kernel, which would print Hello World to UART, I tried to write Hello World using two different binaries loaded at two different addresses(and on two different exception levels!(EL2 and EL1).
el2-kernel.img - this just prints Hello to UART.
el1-kernel.img - this just prints World to UART.
I used the following configuration on rpi4, to load both binaries on rpi4.
kernel=el2-kernel.img
initramfs el1-kernel.img 0x400000
initramfs el1-kernel.img 0x400000
In the el2-kernel.img, I wrote a function which would jump from any exception level to EL1 at 0x400000.
I have successfully done so. I can see the Hello World printed to UART by two different binaries. What I cannot do is to jump from a binary(let's call it a simple hypervisor, which prints Hello World) at EL2 to the standard linux kernel at El1.
How would I be able to do so? I have tried the same with standard linux kernel and "kept" dtb address in x0, so it can used by the linux kernel.
My code for the simple hypervisor: https://github.com/SikkiLadho/Leo
