Hi, experts: I plan to develop a boot loader for an ARMv8 SOC.
So, I have a few questions about booting an ARMv8 kernel image. 1. the linux kernel image's execution state when jumping to the entrypoint of zImage. Take Cortex-A57 as an example: It has 2 execution state : Aarch32 / Aarch64 For example: (1) boot loader is running at Non-Secure EL2 Aarch64 state Does the linux kernel zImage also need run at Non-Secure EL2 Aarch64 state? Is the kernel zImage possible to run at Non-Secure EL2 Aarch32 state? Best wishes,
