Arm Versatile Express boards (``vexpress-a9``, ``vexpress-a15``)
|
|
================================================================
|
|
|
|
QEMU models two variants of the Arm Versatile Express development
|
|
board family:
|
|
|
|
- ``vexpress-a9`` models the combination of the Versatile Express
|
|
motherboard and the CoreTile Express A9x4 daughterboard
|
|
- ``vexpress-a15`` models the combination of the Versatile Express
|
|
motherboard and the CoreTile Express A15x2 daughterboard
|
|
|
|
Note that as this hardware does not have PCI, IDE or SCSI,
|
|
the only available storage option is emulated SD card.
|
|
|
|
Implemented devices:
|
|
|
|
- PL041 audio
|
|
- PL181 SD controller
|
|
- PL050 keyboard and mouse
|
|
- PL011 UARTs
|
|
- SP804 timers
|
|
- I2C controller
|
|
- PL031 RTC
|
|
- PL111 LCD display controller
|
|
- Flash memory
|
|
- LAN9118 ethernet
|
|
|
|
Unimplemented devices:
|
|
|
|
- SP810 system control block
|
|
- PCI-express
|
|
- USB controller (Philips ISP1761)
|
|
- Local DAP ROM
|
|
- CoreSight interfaces
|
|
- PL301 AXI interconnect
|
|
- SCC
|
|
- System counter
|
|
- HDLCD controller (``vexpress-a15``)
|
|
- SP805 watchdog
|
|
- PL341 dynamic memory controller
|
|
- DMA330 DMA controller
|
|
- PL354 static memory controller
|
|
- BP147 TrustZone Protection Controller
|
|
- TrustZone Address Space Controller
|
|
|
|
Other differences between the hardware and the QEMU model:
|
|
|
|
- QEMU will default to creating one CPU unless you pass a different
|
|
``-smp`` argument
|
|
- QEMU allows the amount of RAM provided to be specified with the
|
|
``-m`` argument
|
|
- QEMU defaults to providing a CPU which does not provide either
|
|
TrustZone or the Virtualization Extensions: if you want these you
|
|
must enable them with ``-machine secure=on`` and ``-machine
|
|
virtualization=on``
|
|
- QEMU provides 4 virtio-mmio virtio transports; these start at
|
|
address ``0x10013000`` for ``vexpress-a9`` and at ``0x1c130000`` for
|
|
``vexpress-a15``, and have IRQs from 40 upwards. If a dtb is
|
|
provided on the command line then QEMU will edit it to include
|
|
suitable entries describing these transports for the guest.
