Hi,
I am trying to boot ARMv8 Linux kernel using U-Boot. I have built the latest
mainline kernel and U-Boot for aarch64 using defconfig. I am testing this build
on QEMU V2.6.0. I have loaded the Image file at 0x80080000
"loaded file
/home/shingu/workspace/linux/linux_mainline_aarch64/arch/arm64/boot/Image from
80080000 to 80B175FF, 00A97600 bytes"
Just before transfering the control to the kernel, U-Boot is trying to switch
the exception level to EL2 from EL3, since I have "-machine secure=on" in QEMU
parameters.
As soon as the stack pointer is migrated, ( mov x0, sp; msr sp_el2, x0) there
is an exception occurring, [transferring control to
arch/arm/cpu/armv8/exceptions.S:102] which is aborting the boot process with
following message:
"Synchronous Abort" handler, esr 0x02000000

Can anyone please help me to understand what I am doing wrong?
The total process is in the following code: [
