Aarch64 Qemu virt - crash

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi,

I'd like to check out bareboot. In the documentation I found that aarch64 QEMU virt target is supported. Therefore I wanted to build it and run it in the emulator. I checked out latest git and built it for aarch64. When running it in QEMU 
  $ qemu-system-aarch64 -m 2G -M virt -cpu cortex-a53 -kernel ../barebox/barebox -display none -serial stdio
I run into an exception:

-------- qemu output ---------

I debugged it in gdb and set a breakpoint at the ELR value. Backtrace shows this:

-----------------------------------

Apparently the NOR cfi driver tries to figure out the flash width by writing to it. In QEMU aarch64 virt machine, the flash starts at 0x0, so the address is correct. In barebox config the "QEMU arm64 virt machine" is selected. I tried with specifying a "-pflash ..." parameter at QEMU command line but still got the same exception. MMU (SCTLR.M) is turned on - therefore I wonder why I get this exception. It seems that the MMU region for the flash is not or not correctly set up when the memory access occurs..? Or do I do something wrong? Please let me know how I get it running.

Thanks + Regards
Joerg
