This sounds very useful. Would it be possible to extend CI to create the files for the TF-A case and also run that through test.py? -- Tom signature.asc Description: PGP signature

So it should work (and does for me!) with Amit's line above. > The bios parameter has to point to the TF-A bl1.bin binary. see TF-A's > docs/plat/qemu.rst: BL1 is used as the BootROM, supplied with the -bios > argument. Yeah, and it seems to be even more complicated, since you have to glue fip.bin within a certain offset to bl1.bin, into one file to give to -bios. I use: $ cp build/qemu/debug/bl1.bin flash.bin $ dd if=build/qemu/debug/fip.bin of=flash.bin bs=4k seek=64 ... and make sure to give QEMU more than 512MB of RAM, since the default load address for U-Boot is there. Actually fixing this annoyance was the main motivation for this series. Once people agreed that this series is making some sense, I plan to move the load address in TF-A and improve the documentation in both TF-A and QEMU on this. Thanks!

I tried with cross-gcc 9.2 & QEMU 5.0.0, and with Ubuntu-arm64 (GCC 7.5 & QEMU 2.11.1). Did you apply against master, used qemu_arm64_defconfig, cleaned the build directory? Is your (self-built?) QEMU working? Are you using the actual generated binary? I pushed the branch to https://github.com/Andre-ARM/u-boot/commits/qemu-tfa, please try this.
