Adam,

In fact it seems that the version present in the Ubuntu 12.04 repository is too old and has some problem with FIASCO. Thank you for your help, I downloaded and compiled qemu v2 and now it works.

Actually I didn't try to change the qemu version before because I tried to use the bootstrap.elf with FastModels and the kernel stops at "Roottask config ip:801401a0 sp:00000000" ( more or less same behavior of the older versions of QEMU, so I thought the problem was the same). Is there anyone who has experience with FIASCO+FastModels?

Lastly, is there any example that you can mention of FIASCO.OC usage in production?

Regards,
Michele

I'm trying to execute Fiasco.OC along with the hello module using qemu and
the vexpress machine model. For both A9 and A15 cpus the system hangs at
"Starting kernel fiasco". It seems that something (the UART driver?)
prevents the system to log the kernel boot to the screen.

I compiled the image using 'make qemu' in L4RE, and the vm is executed with
the argument -nographic.

Can you confirm this? Do you have any suggestion to solve it?

Here below you can find the log of the A15 boot process:
Did you launch make qemu with PT=rv_vexpress_a15 and did the launch pick
up the right Fiasco binary, i.e. that one configured for vexpress-a15?
Executing "make qemu O=../build PT=rv_vexpress_a15 E=hello" results in the
following:

       Image size(s) in bytes:
                 bootstrap_hello.elf:  917888
       Start address: 0x81000000
       --> Build-Nr: 2
    QEmu-cmd: qemu-system-arm -kernel
    /home/neonum6/l4re-core-2014022818/src/build/images/bootstrap.elf
    -nographic -M vexpress-a15 -m 256


And soon after the log of the boot is exactly the one I posted before. I
assume that what is in build/images/ is the right binary (bootstrap.elf is a
symbolic link to
build/pkg/bootstrap/server/src/OBJ-arm_armv7a/bootstrap.elf), should I check
elsewhere?
I'd suspect that Fiasco could be wrongly configured, that's why I was
asking whether the build process picked up the right Fiasco image that
has been also configured for this target.

ps: I tried to investigate about the status of the CPU registers using GDB,
the info all-registers command returns always the same value for all the
registers.
Please show them, they might tell me something :)
Sure. This is the log:

    (gdb) target remote :1234
    Remote debugging using :1234

    cpsr           0x600001d7    1610613207
So it page-faulted. Could you show me the globalconfig.out out of the
Fiasco build-dir?
This is the globalconfig file:
[...]
I tried several configurations, for example I added the following

    < CONFIG_ARM_ALIGNMENT_CHECK=y
    < CONFIG_ARM_ENABLE_SWP=y
    < CONFIG_ARM_LPAE=y
    < CONFIG_FPU=y
    < CONFIG_ARM_CPU_ERRATA=y

to the config file, but it doesn't solve the problem. In the meantime I'm
checking the vexpress memory map in the directory
kernel/fiasco/src/kern/arm, but everything looks good to me. Is there anyone
who actually uses FIASCO with this configuration?
It's among the platforms I use more regularly, so yes. I just tried your
config and it works fine for me. Could you send me your bootstrap.elf
and fiasco.image files (off-list) so that I can take a look?
Your image works fine for me with
qemu-system-arm -kernel /tmp/bootstrap.elf -nographic -M vexpress-a15 -m 256

I'm using a recent Qemu version. Which version do you use?
