[Question] Can I start qemu-system-aarch64 with a vmlinux(ELF format)?

[Kunkun Jiang via]

Hi everybody,

I want to start qemu-system-aarch64 with a vmlinux,
which is an ELF format file. The arm_load_elf() is
implemented in arm_setup_direct_kernel_boot(). So I
thought it was supporting the ELF format file.
But there's no output.
Here is my command line:

qemu-system-aarch64 -machine virt,gic-version=3 -enable-kvm -smp 4 -m 1G -cpu host -kernel vmlinux -initrd fs -append "xxx"

Am I using it the wrong way?
Looking forward to your reply.

Thanks,
