Mathew McBride c4c60e4b19 armsr: enable ACPI_BUTTON
A review of the generated OpenWrt kernel .config
vs the Linux arm64 defconfig showed that this
option was not being enabled, as it is disabled
in OpenWrt's generic config.

ACPI_BUTTON is needed to report and respond to
power button events, so it should be enabled.

README

This target generates images that can be used on ARM machines with EFI
support (e.g EDKII/TianoCore or U-Boot with bootefi).

There are two subtargets:
- armv7 for 32-bit machines
- armv8 for 64-bit machines

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-armsr-armv7-generic-initramfs-kernel.bin

	# boot with accel=kvm
	qemu-system-arm -nographic -M virt,accel=kvm -cpu host -m 64 -kernel
	openwrt-armsr-armv7-generic-initramfs-kernel.bin

	# boot with a separate rootfs
	qemu-system-arm -nographic -M virt -m 64 -kernel openwrt-armsr-armv7-generic-kernel.bin \
	  -drive file=openwrt-armsr-armv7-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-armsr-armv7-generic-kernel.bin \
	  -fsdev local,id=rootdev,path=root-armsr/,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-armsr-armv7-zImage -i openwrt-armsr-armv7-rootfs.cpio --name armsr0

	# start with virtio-9p rootfs
	lkvm run -k openwrt-armsr-armv7-zImage -d root-armsr/

	# stop "armsr0"
	lkvm stop --name armsr0

	# 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-armsr-armv8-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/armsr/armv7/openwrt-armsr-armv7-generic-ext4-combined.img.gz > openwrt-arm-32.img
qemu-system-arm -nographic \
    -cpu cortex-a15 -machine virt \
    -bios bin/targets/armsr/armv7/u-boot-qemu_armv7/u-boot.bin \
    -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/armsr/armv8/openwrt-armsr-armv8-generic-ext4-combined.img.gz > openwrt-arm-64.img
qemu-system-aarch64 -nographic \
    -cpu cortex-a53 -machine virt \
    -bios bin/targets/armsr/armv8/u-boot-qemu_armv8/u-boot.bin \
    -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 obtain other EFI/BIOS binaries 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/
