Since Qemu 6.0.0, a warning appear in the log if a short-form boolean
option is used. This was fixed by Romain for the main cmdline description
(see 04afe86cd7 ("board/qemu/arm-vexpress-tz: use enable=on")) but was
not updated in the alternate cmdlines for when using a dual console or
a GDB debug setup.
By the way, fix description mentioning qemu-system-arm command line option
-S that is an uppercase S, not a lower case s.

Board qemu_arm_vexpress_tz builds a QEMU ARMv7-A target system with
|
|
OP-TEE running in the TrustZone secure world and a Linux based
|
|
OS running in the non-secure world. The board configuration enables
|
|
builds of the QEMU host ARM target emulator.
|
|
|
|
make qemu_arm_vexpress_tz_defconfig
|
|
make
|
|
|
|
The BIOS used in the QEMU host is the ARM Trusted Firmware-A (TF-A).
|
|
In our configuration, U-Boot uses QEMU semihosting file access to load the
|
|
kernel and rootfs image files. For this reason the emulation needs to be run
|
|
from the image directory:
|
|
|
|
cd output/images && ../host/bin/qemu-system-arm \
|
|
-machine virt -machine secure=on -cpu cortex-a15 \
|
|
-smp 1 -s -m 1024 -d unimp \
|
|
-serial stdio \
|
|
-netdev user,id=vmnic -device virtio-net-device,netdev=vmnic \
|
|
-semihosting-config enable=on,target=native \
|
|
-bios flash.bin # qemu_arm_vexpress_tz_defconfig
|
|
|
|
The boot stage traces (if any) followed by the login prompt will appear
|
|
in the terminal that started QEMU.
|
|
|
|
If you want to emulate more cores, use "-smp {1|2|3|4}" to select the
|
|
number of cores.
|
|
|
|
Note: "-netdev user,id=vmnic -device virtio-net-device,netdev=vmnic"
|
|
brings network support that is used i.e. in OP-TEE regression tests.
|
|
|
|
|
|
-- Boot Details --
|
|
|
|
TF-A is used as QEMU BIOS. Its BL1 image boots and load its BL2 image. In turn,
|
|
this image loads the OP-TEE secure world (ARMv7-A BL32 stage) and the U-boot as
|
|
non-secure bootloader (BL33 stage).
|
|
|
|
QEMU natively hosts and loads in RAM the QEMU ARM target device tree. OP-TEE
|
|
reads and modifies its content according to OP-TEE configuration.
|
|
|
|
Enable TF-A traces from LOG_LEVEL (I.e LOG_LEVEL=40) from
|
|
BR2_TARGET_ARM_TRUSTED_FIRMWARE_ADDITIONAL_VARIABLES.
|
|
|
|
|
|
-- OP-TEE Traces --
|
|
|
|
Secure boot stages and/or secure runtime services may use a serial link for
|
|
their traces.
|
|
|
|
The ARM Trusted Firmware outputs its traces on the QEMU standard (first)
|
|
serial interface.
|
|
|
|
The OP-TEE OS uses the QEMU second serial interface.
|
|
|
|
To get the OP-TEE OS traces, append a second -serial argument after
|
|
-serial stdio in the QEMU command line. I.e, the following enables 2 serial
|
|
consoles over telnet connections:
|
|
|
|
cd output/images && ../host/bin/qemu-system-arm \
|
|
-machine virt -machine secure=on -cpu cortex-a15 \
|
|
-smp 1 -s -m 1024 -d unimp \
|
|
-serial telnet:127.0.0.1:1235,server \
|
|
-serial telnet:127.0.0.1:1236,server \
|
|
-netdev user,id=vmnic -device virtio-net-device,netdev=vmnic \
|
|
-semihosting-config enable=on,target=native \
|
|
-bios flash.bin
|
|
|
|
QEMU is now waiting for the telnet connection. From another shell, open a
|
|
telnet connection on the port for the U-boot and Linux consoles:
|
|
|
|
telnet 127.0.0.1 1235
|
|
|
|
and again for the secure console
|
|
|
|
telnet 127.0.0.1 1236
|
|
|
|
|
|
-- Using gdb --
|
|
|
|
One can debug the OP-TEE secure world using GDB through the QEMU host.
|
|
To do so, simply run the qemu-system-arm emulation, then run a GDB client
|
|
and connect the QEMU internal GDB server.
|
|
|
|
The example below assumes we run QEMU and the GDB client from the same
|
|
host computer. We use option -S of qemu-system-arm to make QEMU
|
|
waiting for the GDB continue instruction before booting the images.
|
|
|
|
From a first shell:
|
|
cd output/images && ../host/bin/qemu-system-arm \
|
|
-machine virt -machine secure=on -cpu cortex-a15 \
|
|
-smp 1 -s -m 1024 -d unimp \
|
|
-serial stdio \
|
|
-netdev user,id=vmnic -device virtio-net-device,netdev=vmnic \
|
|
-semihosting-config enable=on,target=native \
|
|
-bios flash.bin \
|
|
-S
|
|
|
|
From a second shell:
|
|
./output/host/bin/arm-linux-gdb
