Has somebody noticed the same issue? I used the configuration "qemu_arm64_defconfig".That's odd. We run it in CI, but as cortex-a57 not a53 with otherwise similar arguments. Running with TF-A/OP-TEE is also in CI, but more difficult to configure.
I have tried it now with the Cortex-A57 but running into the same
issue without OP-TEE and TF-A. Using OP-TEE and TF-A works now without the issue because I have forgotten to pass the option TRANSFER_LIST=1 to TF-A and CFG_TRANSFER_LIST=y and CFG_MAP_EXT_DT_SECURE=y to OP-TEE. Host OS: Debian 13 (Trixie) QEMU version: $ qemu-system-aarch64 --version QEMU emulator version 10.0.7 (Debian 1:10.0.7+ds-0+deb13u1+b1) Copyright (c) 2003-2025 Fabrice Bellard and the QEMU Project developers $ BTW: doc/board/emulation/qemu-arm.rst doesn't mention how to build U-Boot with OP-TEE and TF-A. Should I include the build steps into the docs and create a patch for the doc? I think it's also useful for other users. -- Kind regards, Johannes K.
