Hi Tom et. Al,
I am facing an issue while booting linux on our ARMv8 based platform. In our platform DDR address starts from 0x80000000. If I make the linux kernel entry point 0x80080000 in mkimage, then linux boots fine. BUT, if I make the linux image entry point as 0x81000000 in mkimage, the kernel doesn't boot.
=> bootm 0xa0000000 - 0xa1000000 ## Current stack ends at 0xfbb24400 ## Booting kernel from Legacy Image at a0000000 ... Image Name: linux Image Type: AArch64 Linux Kernel Image (gzip compressed) Data Size: 9110442 Bytes = 8.7 MiB Load Address: 81000000 Entry Point: 81000000 Verifying Checksum ... OK ## Flattened Device Tree blob at a1000000 Booting using the fdt blob at 0xa1000000 Uncompressing Kernel Image ... OK using: FDT reserving fdt memory region: addr=80000000 size=10000 Loading Device Tree to 000000009fff6000, end 000000009ffff2f8 ... OK ## Transferring control to Linux (at address 81000000)...
Starting kernel ...
I get no kernel logs after this. I am failing to understand why. Can you please help me in debugging this issue?
