** Description changed: [Impact] + Allows the usage of the highbank model on amd64 systems. [Fix] + http://git.linaro.org/gitweb?p=qemu/qemu-linaro.git;a=commitdiff;h=80a2ba3d3cf33b777d6a45776b0625b9a4283951 + [Test Case] + On an amd64 system w/ > 4G of RAM: + $ sudo qemu-system-arm -nographic -M highbank -m 4089 -kernel ~/vmlinuz-3.2.0-2000-highbank -append console=ttyAMA0 -dtb ~/highbank.dtb - [Test Case] + You can use the vmlinuz and highbank.dtb files from the latest linux- + image-XXX-highbank package. + When things work, you'll see kernel boot messages. When they don't, you'll get an error: + qemu: could not load kernel '/home/ubuntu/vmlinuz-3.2.0-2000-highbank' [Regression Potential] + The only issue I can see is if a caller was counting on size overflow behavior, which seems unlikely. [Original Report] Please apply this patch from upstream: http://git.linaro.org/gitweb?p=qemu/qemu-linaro.git;a=commitdiff;h=80a2ba3d3cf33b777d6a45776b0625b9a4283951 This patch allows QEMU to support emulated systems with > 2G of memory, a requirement for supporting the Calxeda "highbank" target.
