kernel loading halts at "starting kernel in secure mode"

[mihaitaivascu]

Hello,

     I am working with kernel 4.1.52 from kernel/git/stable/linux.git - Linux kernel stable tree  and i see that the kernel is loaded or at least the console does not print further than "starting kernel in secure mode"

      I have worked with other kernels and the console output was expected. The bootrags and dts are no diferent than other kernels reagrding the UART settings.

      How can I debug this issue?

Thanks,

Hi Mihaita,

You can debug with DS5 Debugging the Armv8-A Linux Kernel with DS-5 - Software Tools blog - Software Tools - Arm Community 

or with gdb Debugging kernel and modules via gdb — The Linux Kernel documentation
