Why do the default images in the QorIQ Linux SDK v2.0 PPCE5500 IMAGE.iso result in a "init[1]: unhandled signal 4" when run on a T1040 with qemu-system-ppc64 (and on a CentOS qemu on x86)?

timtenhave · ‎05-17-2017

I took the default T1040 and T1042 uImage and ext2 rootfs from the "QorIQ Linux SDK v2.0 PPCE5500 IMAGE.iso" and tried to run them in a CentOS X86 qemu session and on my eval T1040 board. Both result in an init failure when starting the init process. See latest attempt on the T1040:

I am writing to confirm whether you are able to boot on centOS qemu and what exactly was causing the issue ?

yipingwang · ‎05-23-2017

Hello Tim Tenhave,

I have verified KVM/QEMU setting up procedure on T1040D4RDB board, there is no problem. Please refer to my procedure.

First please configure Linux Kernel with the following Kernel options enabled and rebuild uImage.

1.Enabling KVM
[*] Virtualization --->
[*] KVM support for PowerPC E500MC/E5500/E6500 processors
[*] KVM in-kernel MPIC emulation

Then on T1040RDB board, please boot up Linux with uImage mentioned above and execute the following command.

root@t1040d4rdb:~# qemu-system-ppc64 -enable-kvm -nographic -m 1024 -cpu e5500 -M ppce500 -kernel uImage -initrd fsl-image-core-t1040d4rdb-20160514203035.rootfs.ext2.gz -append "root=/dev/ram rw console=ttyS0,115200" -serial tcp::4444,server
QEMU 2.4.0 monitor - type 'help' for more information
(qemu) QEMU waiting for connection on: disconnected:tcp::4444,server

On the PC, please access guest with the following command.

$ telnet 192.168.2.102 4444

Have a great day,
TIC

Thank you for the tip! I will give this a try over the next few days as I am sharing the T1040 board right now.
