Andrii, Due to some events on my side, I had to move from the R-Car H3 I was using to the R-Car M3 in my posession. I followed your initial advice and updated my environment to a newer version, opting to stick to the rocko version for the m3ulcb. The Yocto build configuration is shown below: Build Configuration: BB_VERSION = "1.36.0" BUILD_SYS = "x86_64-linux" NATIVELSBSTRING = "universal-4.9" TARGET_SYS = "aarch64-poky-linux" MACHINE = "m3ulcb" DISTRO = "poky" DISTRO_VERSION = "2.4.2" TUNE_FEATURES = "aarch64 cortexa57-cortexa53" TARGET_FPU = "" SOC_FAMILY = "rcar-gen3:r8a7796" meta meta-poky meta-yocto-bsp = "HEAD:342fbd6a3e57021c8e28b124b3adb241936f3d9d" meta-rcar-gen3 = "rocko:8af0b7d6e445b532088a068dc012757001be3a1f" meta-optee = "rocko:75dfb67bbb14a70cd47afda9726e2e1c76731885" meta-oe meta-python meta-networking = "rocko:eae996301d9c097bcbeb8046f08041dc82bb62f8" meta-selinux = "rocko:d855c624f32c5e599bf27e06cb8f5b25b3aae12d" meta-virtualization = "rocko:b704c689b67639214b9568a3d62e82df27e9434f" meta-rcar-gen3-xen = "master:60699c631d541aeeaebaeec9a087efed9385ee42" I had to modify the dtb to the version shown below: // SPDX-License-Identifier: GPL-2.0 /* * Device Tree Source for the M3ULCB (R-Car Starter Kit Pro) board * * Copyright (C) 2016-2018 Renesas Electronics Corp. * Copyright (C) 2016 Cogent Embedded, Inc. */ /dts-v1/; #include "r8a7796.dtsi" #include "ulcb.dtsi" / { model = "Renesas M3ULCB board based on r8a7796"; compatible = "renesas,m3ulcb", "renesas,r8a7796"; cpus { idle-states { /delete-node/ cpu-sleep-1; }; }; memory@48000000 { device_type = "memory"; /* first 128MB is reserved for secure area. */ reg = <0x0 0x48000000 0x0 0x38000000>; }; memory@600000000 { device_type = "memory"; reg = <0x6 0x00000000 0x0 0x40000000>; }; reserved-memory { #address-cells = <2>; #size-cells = <2>; ranges; /* device specific region for Lossy Decompression */ lossy_decompress: linux,lossy_decompress@54000000 { no-map; reg = <0x00000000 0x54000000 0x0 0x03000000>; }; /* global autoconfigured region for contiguous allocations */ linux,cma@57000000 { compatible = "shared-dma-pool"; reusable; reg = <0x00000000 0x57000000 0x0 0x19000000>; linux,cma-default; }; /* device specific region for contiguous allocations */ mmp_reserved: linux,multimedia@70000000 { compatible = "shared-dma-pool"; reusable; reg = <0x00000000 0x70000000 0x0 0x10000000>; }; }; chosen { stdout-path = "serial0:115200n8"; xen,xen-bootargs = "dom0_mem=752M console=dtuart dtuart=serial0 dom0_max_vcpus=4"; xen,dom0-bootargs = "console=hvc0 clk_ignore_unused root=/dev/mmcblk1p2 rw rootwait ignore_loglevel cma=128M"; #address-cells = <2>; #size-cells = <2>; modules { module@0 { compatible = "xen,linux-zimage", "xen,multiboot-module"; reg = <0x0 0x7a000000 0x0 0x02000000>; }; }; }; mmngr { compatible = "renesas,mmngr"; memory-region = <&mmp_reserved>, <&lossy_decompress>; }; mmngrbuf { compatible = "renesas,mmngrbuf"; }; vspm_if { compatible = "renesas,vspm_if"; }; versaclock5_out3: versaclk-3 { compatible = "fixed-clock"; #clock-cells = <0>; /* Initial value of versaclock out3 */ clock-frequency = <33000000>; }; }; &a53_0 { /delete-property/ cpu-idle-states; }; &a53_1 { /delete-property/ cpu-idle-states; }; &a53_2 { /delete-property/ cpu-idle-states; }; &a53_3 { /delete-property/ cpu-idle-states; }; &du { clocks = <&cpg CPG_MOD 724>, <&cpg CPG_MOD 723>, <&cpg CPG_MOD 722>, <&versaclock5 1>, <&versaclock5_out3>, <&versaclock5 2>; clock-names = "du.0", "du.1", "du.2", "dclkin.0", "dclkin.1", "dclkin.2"; }; &vspb { status = "okay"; }; &vspi0 { status = "okay"; }; With the new information, I finally got some output for Xen, but was met with a completely different issue for which I can't find any information for the error I am receiving. I realize that I may have an issue with the version of the board I am using, but a simple online search doesn't throw any red flags.
