Hi, sharma:

Which ARMv8 foundation model version you are using. I one I have

doesn't support

GiCv3. UEFI supports both GiCv3 and v2 whereas I believe uboot is only

tested >for GiCv2.

I download FVP from ARM Ltd website: http://www.arm.com/products/tools/models/fast-models/foundation-model.ph p how to identify this FVP's version number?

I tried to run : ./Foundation_v8 --cores=4 --no-secure-memory --visualization --data="./bl1.bin"@0x0 --data="./u-boot.bin"@0x8000000

Not use " --gicv3 " parameter, it still failed to jump to u-boot.bin

Best wishes,

Hi, sharma:

...

./Foundation_v8 --cores=4 --no-secure-memory --visualization

--data="./bl1.bin"@0x0 --data="./u-boot.bin"@0x8000000

Is the TEXT_BASE right?

Can you try this command: ./Foundation_v8 --image ./u-boot --cores=4 --no-secure-memory

Regards, Bhupesh

Not the u-boot.bin, only u-boot:

./Foundation_v8 --image ./u-boot --cores=4 --no-secure-memory

Regards, Bhupesh

Hi,Sharma:

...

Can you try this command: ./Foundation_v8 --image ./u-boot --cores=4 --no-secure-memory

Error: terminal_1: Listening for serial connection on port 5000 terminal_2: Listening for serial connection on port 5001 terminal_0: Listening for serial connection on port 5002 terminal_3: Listening for serial connection on port 5003 ERROR: an unexpected exception error has occurred inside the model terminate called after throwing an instance of 'ObjectLoaderError' what(): ./u-boot.bin: error while loading 'AXYS 'in'-file' file: fgets: Success ./run.sh: line 3: 25702 Aborted ./Foundation_v8 --image ./u-boot.bin --cores=4 --no-secure-memory

So, maybe current FVP's version is newer!

You need to use u-boot.elf, not the unrelocated u-boot.

Hi, Scott:

Thanks a lot! After changing to u-boot.elf, it could be run in FVP model.

Best wishes,

I make some supplement. Foundation Model use elf header to determine the entry point, so only support loading elf(or axf) images. Another way, gcc for aarch64 use rela relocation type and no initial value encoded in rela table. Thus, the file 'u-boot' contains wrong relocation information. Scott provided a few patches to deal with this problem. A tool named relocate-rela is provided to fix this problem and u-boot.elf is generated with correct relocation.

So, only u-boot.elf could be used with Foundation model. Currently only gicv2 is supported. I will upload a gicv3 patch in these days.

Best wishes,
