I am running it using the GEM5 full system simulator, so it is not actually real hardware. The simulator does support ethernet. I tried using the dummy0 device for ethernet traffic but it didn't work. Is there a particular option I can enable in order to have eth0?
Thanks,
Ivan

Hi,
I cross-compiled the latest (3.16) linaro kernel from source using the linaro aarch64 toolchain
(gcc-linaro-aarch64-linux-gnu-4.8-2014.04_linux).
I am also using the linaro armv8 disk image (linaro-image-minimal-genericarmv8-20140127-635).
At first I used defconfig to compile the kernel.
That _may_ be part of the problem, we generally don't use the defconfig for building arm64 kernels, we use the config produced by running something like...
ARCH=arm64 scripts/kconfig/merge_config.sh \ linaro/configs/linaro-base.conf \ linaro/configs/linaro-base64.conf \ linaro/configs/distribution.conf \ linaro/configs/big-LITTLE-MP.conf \ linaro/configs/vexpress64.conf
This is assuming you're using ARM's Juno board or FVPs (a.k.a. RTSM a.k.a. Fast Models).
