Intro
=====
The QEMU sbsa-ref machine is primarily meant for firmware development
and testing according to ARM's SBSA and SBBR standards.
Build
=====
$ make qemu_aarch64_sbsa_defconfig
$ make
Emulation
=========
Run the emulation with:
qemu-system-aarch64 \
-M sbsa-ref \
-cpu cortex-a57 \
-smp 4 \
-m 1024 \
-nographic \
-pflash output/images/SBSA_FLASH0.fd \
-pflash output/images/SBSA_FLASH1.fd \
-hda output/images/disk.img # qemu_aarch64_sbsa_defconfig
Note that if you want to run sbsa-ref emulation with QEMU provided by
your distro (i.e., not host-qemu by Buildroot) then you may need to
install the SeaBIOS package for some required drivers. On Debian:
# apt install seabios
