These changes are to support other vendors that have SystemReady/EFI support, including: * Marvell Armada ** (This is speculative as I don't have a machine of my own to test) * Amazon Graviton (tested bare-metal and virtualized instances) * VMware (Fusion for ARM Mac preview) * NXP/Freescale (Layerscape series not already selected) * HiSilicon * Allwinner/sunxi * Rockchip (untested, options taken from arm64 defconfig) To give an idea of the hardware certified for SystemReady, see https://www.arm.com/architecture/system-architectures/systemready-certification-program/ir and https://www.arm.com/architecture/system-architectures/systemready-certification-program/es Other vendors that _should_ work include Marvell Octeon 10 and Ampere. I understand these systems should work "out of the box" in ACPI mode but may require other drivers (e.g PCIe NICs and storage controllers).

This target generates images that can be used on ARM machines with EFI
support (e.g EDKII/TianoCore or U-Boot with bootefi).
The kernel and filesystem images can also be used directly by QEMU:
Run with qemu-system-arm
# boot with initramfs embedded in
qemu-system-arm -nographic -M virt -m 64 -kernel openwrt-armvirt-32-generic-initramfs-kernel.bin
# boot with accel=kvm
qemu-system-arm -nographic -M virt,accel=kvm -cpu host -m 64 -kernel
openwrt-armvirt-32-generic-initramfs-kernel.bin
# boot with a separate rootfs
qemu-system-arm -nographic -M virt -m 64 -kernel openwrt-armvirt-32-generic-kernel.bin \
-drive file=openwrt-armvirt-32-generic-ext4-rootfs.img,format=raw,if=virtio -append 'root=/dev/vda rootwait'
# boot with local dir as rootfs
qemu-system-arm -nographic -M virt -m 64 -kernel openwrt-armvirt-32-generic-kernel.bin \
-fsdev local,id=rootdev,path=root-armvirt/,security_model=none \
-device virtio-9p-pci,fsdev=rootdev,mount_tag=/dev/root \
-append 'rootflags=trans=virtio,version=9p2000.L,cache=loose rootfstype=9p'
Run with kvmtool
# start a named machine
lkvm run -k openwrt-armvirt-32-zImage -i openwrt-armvirt-32-rootfs.cpio --name armvirt0
# start with virtio-9p rootfs
lkvm run -k openwrt-armvirt-32-zImage -d root-armvirt/
# stop "armvirt0"
lkvm stop --name armvirt0
# stop all
lkvm stop --all
The multi-platform ARMv8 target can be used with QEMU:
qemu-system-aarch64 -machine virt -cpu cortex-a57 -nographic \
-kernel openwrt-armvirt-64-generic-initramfs-kernel.bin \
With a EDKII or U-Boot binary for the QEMU ARM virtual machines, you can use these
images in EFI mode:
32-bit:
gunzip -c bin/targets/armvirt/32/openwrt-armvirt-32-generic-ext4-combined.img.gz > openwrt-arm-32.img
qemu-system-arm -nographic \
-cpu cortex-a15 -machine virt \
-bios QEMU_EFI_32.fd \
-smp 1 -m 1024 \
-device virtio-rng-pci \
-drive file=openwrt-arm-32.img,format=raw,index=0,media=disk \
-netdev user,id=testlan -net nic,netdev=testlan \
-netdev user,id=testwan -net nic,netdev=testwan
64-bit:
gunzip -c bin/targets/armvirt/64/openwrt-armvirt-64-generic-ext4-combined.img.gz > openwrt-arm-64.img
qemu-system-aarch64 -nographic \
-cpu cortex-a53 -machine virt \
-bios QEMU_EFI_64.fd \
-smp 1 -m 1024 \
-device virtio-rng-pci \
-drive file=openwrt-arm-64.img,format=raw,index=0,media=disk \
-netdev user,id=testlan -net nic,netdev=testlan \
-netdev user,id=testwan -net nic,netdev=testwan
One can find EFI/BIOS binaries from:
- Compile mainline U-Boot for the QEMU ARM virtual machine (qemu_arm_defconfig/qemu_arm64_defconfig)
- From distribution packages (such as qemu-efi-arm and qemu-efi-aarch64 in Debian)
- Community builds, like retrage/edk2-nightly: https://retrage.github.io/edk2-nightly/
