All the patches required to build UEFI for the ARM Foundation and Base
Models have been committed to subversion (revision 14628).
The wikipage
(https://sourceforge.net/apps/mediawiki/tianocore/index.php?title=ArmPlatfor
mPkg/AArch64) has been updated to use the repository instead of the
snapshot.
It is recommended to apply the patch "Fixed calculation of BaseOfCode in
GenFw when the first code section is aligned" (sent on July 16th on the
mailing-list). A copy of this patch can be found in
ArmPlatformPkg/Documentation/patch/BaseTools-Pending-Patches.patch.
patch -p1 <
ArmPlatformPkg/Documentation/patches/BaseTools-Pending-Patches.patch
The snapshot contains changes to add AArch64 support to EdkShellPkg
(required to start UEFI SCT) that is not yet into subversion. The latest
version of this patch will be sent soon on the mailing-list.

Subject: ARM 64-bit - UEFI on the AArch64 Models
After the UEFI 2.4 specification - that contains the AArch64 (the ARM 64-bit
architecture) Binding - was approved last week, I started to send the
AArch64 patchset to be reviewed by the different EDK2 maintainers.
Because patches are still waiting to be approved and also not all the
patches have been sent yet (such as the pre-built binaries and few minor
others), I created a snapshot of the latest subversion (svn rev 14505 -
Friday 26 Jul 2013) with the AArch64 pathset to make it easier for people to
play with UEFI on AArch64 platforms.
The main reason of creating a snapshot and not a patch is binary data are
not really portable in patch files.
This archive is only a short term solution and should not be considered as a
release package (some AArch64 patches could diverge from their original
revision). The archive will be removed after all the patches will have been
accepted by the maintainers.
'Direct' link to the archive:

Tutorial to build and run AArch64 EDK2 on the Foundation and Base FVP Model:
https://sourceforge.net/apps/mediawiki/tianocore/index.php?title=ArmPlatform
Pkg/AArch64
Note: The AArch64 Foundation FVP Model is free to download. So anyone could
try to build and run AArch64 UEFI on this Virtual Platform.
Thanks,
Olivier
