Copyright (C) 2018, Bin Meng <bmeng.cn@gmail.com> + +QEMU RISC-V +=========== + +QEMU for RISC-V supports a special 'virt' machine designed for emulation and +virtualization purposes. This document describes how to run U-Boot under it. +Both 32-bit and 64-bit targets are supported, running in either machine or +supervisor mode. + +The QEMU virt machine models a generic RISC-V virtual machine with support for +the VirtIO standard networking and block storage devices. It has CLINT, PLIC, +16550A UART devices in addition to VirtIO and it also uses device-tree to pass +configuration information to guest software. It implements RISC-V privileged +architecture spec v1.10. + +Building U-Boot +--------------- +Set the CROSS_COMPILE environment variable as usual, and run: + +- For 32-bit RISC-V:: + + make qemu-riscv32_defconfig + make + +- For 64-bit RISC-V:: + + make qemu-riscv64_defconfig + make + +This will compile U-Boot for machine mode. To build supervisor mode binaries, +use the configurations qemu-riscv32_smode_defconfig and +qemu-riscv64_smode_defconfig instead. Note that U-Boot running in supervisor +mode requires a supervisor binary interface (SBI), such as RISC-V OpenSBI. + +Running U-Boot +-------------- +The minimal QEMU command line to get U-Boot up and running is: + +- For 32-bit RISC-V:: + + qemu-system-riscv32 -nographic -machine virt -bios u-boot + +- For 64-bit RISC-V:: + + qemu-system-riscv64 -nographic -machine virt -bios u-boot + +The commands above create targets with 128MiB memory by default. +A freely configurable amount of RAM can be created via the '-m' +parameter. For example, '-m 2G' creates 2GiB memory for the target, +and the memory node in the embedded DTB created by QEMU reflects +the new setting. + +For instructions on how to run U-Boot in supervisor mode on QEMU +with OpenSBI, see the documentation available with OpenSBI: +https://github.com/riscv/opensbi/blob/master/docs/platform/qemu_virt.md + +These have been tested in QEMU 5.0.0. + +Running U-Boot SPL +------------------ +In the default SPL configuration, U-Boot SPL starts in machine mode. U-Boot +proper and OpenSBI (FW_DYNAMIC firmware) are bundled as FIT image and made +available to U-Boot SPL. Both are then loaded by U-Boot SPL and the location +of U-Boot proper is passed to OpenSBI. After initialization, U-Boot proper is +started in supervisor mode by OpenSBI. + +OpenSBI must be compiled before compiling U-Boot. Version 0.4 and higher is +supported by U-Boot. Clone the OpenSBI repository and run the following command. + +.. code-block:: console + + git clone https://github.com/riscv/opensbi.git + cd opensbi + make PLATFORM=generic + +See the OpenSBI documentation for full details: +https://github.com/riscv/opensbi/blob/master/docs/platform/qemu_virt.md + +To make the FW_DYNAMIC binary (build/platform/qemu/virt/firmware/fw_dynamic.bin) +available to U-Boot, either copy it into the U-Boot root directory or specify +its location with the OPENSBI environment variable. Afterwards, compile U-Boot +with the following commands. + +- For 32-bit RISC-V:: + + make qemu-riscv32_spl_defconfig + make + +- For 64-bit RISC-V:: + + make qemu-riscv64_spl_defconfig + make + +The minimal QEMU commands to run U-Boot SPL in both 32-bit and 64-bit +configurations are: + +- For 32-bit RISC-V:: + + qemu-system-riscv32 -nographic -machine virt -bios spl/u-boot-spl \ + -device loader,file=u-boot.itb,addr=0x80200000 + +- For 64-bit RISC-V:: + + qemu-system-riscv64 -nographic -machine virt -bios spl/u-boot-spl \ + -device loader,file=u-boot.itb,addr=0x80200000 + +An attached disk can be emulated by adding:: + + -device ich9-ahci,id=ahci \ + -drive if=none,file=riscv64.img,format=raw,id=mydisk \ + -device ide-hd,drive=mydisk,bus=ahci.0 + +You will have to run 'scsi scan' to use it. |
