Hi,
We were trying to get the latest puslished (5.3) foundation models in LAVA.
Using the reference as http://git.linaro.org/lava/lava-dispatcher.git/blob/HEAD:/lava_dispatcher/de...
# The new (2013-10-03) Foundation model install places the simulator binary at Foundation_v8pkg/models/Linux64_GCC-4.1/Foundation_v8 21http://git.linaro.org/lava/lava-dispatcher.git/blob/HEAD:/lava_dispatcher/default-config/lava-dispatcher/device-types/rtsm_foundation-armv8.conf#l21 # A symbolic link has been created in our arm_models-2013-10-03.tgz package to workaround this change for compatibilty sake. If you are getting an error 22http://git.linaro.org/lava/lava-dispatcher.git/blob/HEAD:/lava_dispatcher/default-config/lava-dispatcher/device-types/rtsm_foundation-armv8.conf#l22 # chances are you are running a newer Foundation model and need to adjust this path. 23http://git.linaro.org/lava/lava-dispatcher.git/blob/HEAD:/lava_dispatcher/default-config/lava-dispatcher/device-types/rtsm_foundation-armv8.conf#l23 simulator_command = sudo -u www-data /opt/arm/Foundation_v8pkg/Foundation_v8 --image={AXF} --block-device={IMG} --network=nat
Not quite sure what the comment refers to. However the key point for me is that rather than using the axf file I was hoping to define the boot options similar to what we have for the Base models.
The following is the typical boot options I wanted to use
<path-to>/Foundation_v8 \ --cores=4 \ --no-secure-memory \ --visualization \ --gicv3 \ --data="<path to bl1.bin>"@0x0 \ --data="<path to UEFI binary>"@0x8000000 \ --block-device="<path-to>/vexpress64-openembedded_lamp-armv8_20130927-7.img"
This would let me override the various argument like number of cores / --gicv3 or -no-gicv3 flag.
My understanding is that foundation models are quite cutdown version of Base models and hence does not have semihosting capabilitie etc, hence the uefi and blockdevice path should be relative to that of the foundation model location.
Question:: Can we use the boot options for foundation model the similar way it is used for base models? Is there an example for the same where we could cross-reference?
Thanks Basil Eljuse...
