Introduction
|
||
|
============
|
||
|
|
||
|
The qemu_aarch64_ebbr_defconfig is meant to illustrate some aspects of the Arm
|
||
|
EBBR specification[1] and the Arm SystemReady IR[2] compliance program.
|
||
|
It allows building an AArch64 U-Boot based firmware implementing the subset of
|
||
|
UEFI defined by EBBR, as well as a Linux OS disk image booting with UEFI, to run
|
||
|
on Qemu.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Building
|
||
|
========
|
||
|
|
||
|
$ make qemu_aarch64_ebbr_defconfig
|
||
|
$ make
|
||
|
|
||
|
Generated files under output/images:
|
||
|
|
||
|
* flash.bin: A firmware image comprising TF-A, OP-TEE and the U-Boot bootloader.
|
||
|
|
||
|
* disk.img: An OS disk image comprising the GRUB bootloader, the Linux kernel
|
||
|
and the root filesystem.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Running under Qemu
|
||
|
==================
|
||
|
|
||
|
Run the emulation with:
|
||
|
|
||
|
qemu-system-aarch64 \
|
||
|
-M virt,secure=on \
|
||
|
-bios output/images/flash.bin \
|
||
|
-cpu cortex-a53 \
|
||
|
-device virtio-blk-device,drive=hd0 \
|
||
|
-device virtio-net-device,netdev=eth0 \
|
||
|
-device virtio-rng-device,rng=rng0 \
|
||
|
-drive file=output/images/disk.img,if=none,format=raw,id=hd0 \
|
||
|
-m 1024 \
|
||
|
-netdev user,id=eth0 \
|
||
|
-no-acpi \
|
||
|
-nographic \
|
||
|
-object rng-random,filename=/dev/urandom,id=rng0 \
|
||
|
-rtc base=utc,clock=host \
|
||
|
-smp 2 # qemu_aarch64_ebbr_defconfig
|
||
|
|
||
|
The login prompt will appear in the terminal that started Qemu.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Using the EBBR firmware to run another OS under Qemu
|
||
|
----------------------------------------------------
|
||
|
|
||
|
It is possible to use the generated firmware binary to install or run another OS
|
||
|
supporting the EBBR specification.
|
||
|
|
||
|
To run another OS on emulation using a live or pre-installed image, use the same
|
||
|
Qemu command line as for the generated OS but adapt the OS image path in the
|
||
|
-drive stanza.
|
||
|
The image generated by the aarch64_efi_defconfig or the Arm ACS-IR images[3] are
|
||
|
examples of pre-installed OS images.
|
||
|
|
||
|
To install another OS using an installer iso image, prepare a destination disk
|
||
|
image first with:
|
||
|
|
||
|
qemu-img create -f qcow2 disk.qcow2 10G
|
||
|
|
||
|
Then run the OS installer iso image on emulation with:
|
||
|
|
||
|
qemu-system-aarch64 \
|
||
|
-M virt,secure=on \
|
||
|
-bios output/images/flash.bin \
|
||
|
-cpu cortex-a53 \
|
||
|
-device virtio-blk-device,drive=hd1 \
|
||
|
-device virtio-blk-device,drive=hd0 \
|
||
|
-device virtio-net-device,netdev=eth0 \
|
||
|
-device virtio-rng-device,rng=rng0 \
|
||
|
-drive file=<iso>,if=none,format=raw,readonly=on,id=hd0 \
|
||
|
-drive file=disk.qcow2,if=none,id=hd1 \
|
||
|
-m 1024 \
|
||
|
-netdev user,id=eth0 \
|
||
|
-no-acpi \
|
||
|
-nographic \
|
||
|
-object rng-random,filename=/dev/urandom,id=rng0 \
|
||
|
-rtc base=utc,clock=host \
|
||
|
-smp 2
|
||
|
|
||
|
The installation medium will show up under the Linux OS installer as /dev/vda
|
||
|
and the destination disk as /dev/vdb.
|
||
|
To reboot into the installed OS, use the same Qemu command line as for the
|
||
|
installation, but without the two stanzas
|
||
|
referring to hd0.
|
||
|
Linux distributions such as Debian, Fedora, openSUSE or Ubuntu provide an OS
|
||
|
installer iso image.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Miscellaneous
|
||
|
=============
|
||
|
|
||
|
This configuration is inspired by the qemu_aarch64_virt_defconfig, the
|
||
|
aarch64_efi_defconfig and the Arm SystemReady IR IoT Integration, Test, and
|
||
|
Certification Guide[4].
