Which RTSM_EB are you using for this bring up? FastModel comes with only RTSM_VE of A15,A7 pack which has only cores simulated, not even uart in it.
I am starting with fastmodel and getting Android booting on it .I am currently using RTSM_VE for A15 to start with and NFS filesystem. UART is simulated as ttyAMA0 and logs could be captured through it. The plan is
to
support A9, A15 and A15 + A7 combinations.
Why do we care about the A9 Fast Model? There are two reasons not to worry about it: (1) we have A9 hardware easily available (2) the example model which is labelled as an RTSM_VE A9 isn't actually the same as the hardware VersatileExpress A9, so it isn't useful for a "start with known working code and use it to bootstrap to running on models" path.
Supporting A9 model is not a priority .If A15,A7 models are not stable only then we would have linaro images for A9 model.
