[Buildroot] [PATCH v4 06/10] configs/qemu_aarch64_sbsa_defconfig: new config for QEMU sbsa-ref

Dick Olsson hi at senzilla.io
Thu Mar 18 15:43:10 UTC 2021


This introduces a configuration for the SBSA reference machine under
QEMU that is intended for developing and testing firmware. It consists
of ATF that load EDK2 as BL33 which in turn will load the kernel in EFI
stub mode with ACPI.

Revision 4:

 * The qemu-sbsa-ref machine is now able to boot the kernel. Adjusted
   readme.txt accordingly
 * Updated to Linux LTS kernel 5.10
 * Renamed post-image.sh to assemble-flash-images
 * Added startup.nsh for auto-booting from the EFI shell
 * Simplified resizing of the flash images with the truncate command

Revision 3:

 * post-image.sh cleanup
 * Added host-qemu to config for testing

Revision 2:

 * This board was renamed/moved to be specific for QEMU sbsa-ref
 * General simplification
 * Using set -e in the post-images.sh script
