- Running on the Foundation FVP
- ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
- The following ``Foundation_Platform`` parameters should be used to boot Linux with
- 4 CPUs using the AArch64 build of TF-A.
- .. code:: shell
- <path-to>/Foundation_Platform \
- --cores=4 \
- --arm-v8.0 \
- --secure-memory \
- --visualization \
- --gicv3 \
- --data="<path-to>/<bl1-binary>"@0x0 \
- --data="<path-to>/<FIP-binary>"@0x08000000 \
- --data="<path-to>/<kernel-binary>"@0x80080000 \
- --data="<path-to>/<ramdisk-binary>"@0x84000000
- Notes:
- - BL1 is loaded at the start of the Trusted ROM.
- - The Firmware Image Package is loaded at the start of NOR FLASH0.
- - The firmware loads the FDT packaged in FIP to the DRAM. The FDT load address
- is specified via the ``load-address`` property in the ``hw-config`` node of
- `FW_CONFIG for FVP`_.
- - The default use-case for the Foundation FVP is to use the ``--gicv3`` option
- and enable the GICv3 device in the model. Note that without this option,
- the Foundation FVP defaults to legacy (Versatile Express) memory map which
- is not supported by TF-A.
- - In order for TF-A to run correctly on the Foundation FVP, the architecture
- versions must match. The Foundation FVP defaults to the highest v8.x
- version it supports but the default build for TF-A is for v8.0. To avoid
- issues either start the Foundation FVP to use v8.0 architecture using the
- ``--arm-v8.0`` option, or build TF-A with an appropriate value for
- ``ARM_ARCH_MINOR``.
