imx8qm jailhouse

Hi all,

Is there any document showing all the steps to have a demo running on imx8qm mek board with jailhouse?

I was going over this: L5.4.70_2.3.3_LINUX_DOCS

but all I could find is a reference to device trees:

Hypervisor Jailhouse Enables the Jailhouse Hypervisor device trees.
• imx8qxp-mek-root.dtb: DTB for root-cell

I do not know what to do with this info. That is why I need a step by step instruction list.

Br, Mircea

@Jerry137207 

Hi,

Are you running jailhouse on top of hw ?

Re: imx8qm jailhouse

Hi @Rita_Wang 

I am using MCIMX8QM soc I need to run android and freertos on top of hypervisor.

Which hypervisor i can use ?

Re: imx8qm jailhouseWaste of time. Nothing works out of the box on nxp imx8qm, at least not with the software provided by nxp. Android does not run in jailhouse, on imx95 they have a small android demo running in xen. freertos can run on the second core m3 core, you can flash the emmc with android and have it like that running. no hypervisor needed.Re: imx8qm jailhouse

hi @Ahelion

i am planning to use MCIMX8QM-CPU soc  i need to bringup freertos and Android on top on this do we need hypervisor here,

and also Jailhouse is already present in the latest version of android ?

Re: imx8qm jailhouse

Hi, Ahelion:

I'm interested in runing multiple OS based on jailhouse, but related information is lack. I've sucessfully run jailhouse test demo in Imx8qm mek board. If you would like share info each other, plz email me: [email protected].

Re: imx8qm jailhouseI can tell you right now, it is not supported. I could not get jailhouse or xen to work on imx8qm. Whatever documentation i find is referencing linux4.9, which can not be build anymore.Re: imx8qm jailhouse

Hi,

Yes, the xen is supported on the i.MX8QM.

You can refer to the attach document.

Wish you have a nice day

Best Regards

Rita

jailhouse supports on latest kernel for my requirement 

Re: imx8qm jailhouse

Hi @Shivu_Guru_24 ,

Sorry for late reply. For the XEN the on latest kernal 6x do not support it.

If customer want to use, they can do porting themself. In our BSP 4.14.98 support it. Customer and refer it:

Embedded Linux for i.MX Applications Processors | NXP Semiconductors

Re: imx8qm jailhouse

Hi @Shivu_Guru_24 ,

Jailhouse is a Type 1 hypervisor for i.MX 8. Xen is not support in the latest version BSP.

Wish you have a nice day
