Unable to boot Dom0 on Hikey

Unable to boot Dom0 on Hikey

Hi,

I'm following instructions on https://wiki.xenproject.org/wiki/HiKey and
https://github.com/Jeeppler/xen-note/blob/master/
arm64/hikey/hikey-xen-centos.md.

I'm trying to boot Xen on Hikey but Dom0 doesn't boot after Xen! I can boot
the linux individually with startup.sh. This works fine but when I try to
boot xen (typing 4 and then xen), I get a couple of Xen messages and when
it tries to boot Dom0 it fails and it stops there.These are the last
messages:

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

My Xen version is: 4.7.0.rc4 and my dom0 is: android-hikey-linaro-4.1. I
tried earlier Xen version but no difference.

This is my *xen.cfg*:
options=dom0_mem=512M dom0_max_vcpus=4 conswitch=x console=dtuart
dtuart=/smb/uart@f7113000
kernel=Image console=hvc0 root=/dev/mmcblk0p9 rootwait rw 3
dtb=hi6220-hikey.dtb

and my *startup.nsh*:
FS0:
Image dtb=hi6220-hikey.dtb console=ttyAMA3,115200 root=/dev/mmcblk0p9
rootwait rw efi=noruntime

I've checked out the thread here or others: https://lists.gt.net/
xen/devel/433472 but I have passed the dtb file in the xen.cfg and still
Dom0 doesn't boot.

Any help is greatly appreciated.

Thanks a lot,

And just to make sure, you are using HiKey not Hikey960. There is a big
difference between them and you can only buy Hikey960 nowadays.

That is a bit old. How about Xen 4.9?

Re: Unable to boot Dom0 on Hikey

Thanks for your feedback. Yes, I'm using "HiKey" that I recently bought. I
tried RELEASE-4.9.0 and RELEASE-4.8.0 and RELEASE-4.7.3. None of them
boots. There were little differences. Xen 4.8 printed one line more and
stopped:
~~~~~~~~~~~
.......
(XEN) Freed 268kB init memory.
(XEN) Hardware Dom0 shutdown: rebooting machine
~~~~~~~~~~~
Xen 4.9 rebooted after it failed to boot.

Do you think the issue is with the Xen version?

This is how I build Xen:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
cd xen/xen
export CROSS_COMPILE=aarch64-linux-gnu-
export ARCH=arm64
export XEN_TARGET_ARCH=arm64
make defconfig
make -j8
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~`

Should I make specific config for HiKey?

And in this link: https://lists.gt.net/xen/devel/433472, they could boot
the system by disabling the USB_DWC2 in the kernel. I tried modifying the
.config file directly and disabling the ones related to USB_DWC2
 (commenting the line out) but when I tried rebuilding the kernel it
restarted generating the .config file. So I couldn't apply this comment.

I just got it to work. As that link said I disabled USB_DWC2 in the kernel
and now it boots! I hope it works fine later. Thanks.
