They come in several families, each of +which (usually) contain variants for different configurations of simulated +hardware. These are documented in the Fixed Virtual Platforms FVP Reference +Guide (reference number ARM DUI0837H). + +Required properties (in root node): +- compatible value: + compatible = "arm,<family>,<variant>", "arm,<family>"; + where <family> is one of: + - "fvp-base" for the Base FVP + - "fvp-ve" for the VE FVP + and <variant> is the part of the model's executable filename with the family + name omitted, converted to lower case, and with non-alphanumeric characters + replaced with '-'. E.g. the Base FVP that has two AEMv8 CPU clusters has an + executable file called FVP_Base_AEMv8A-AEMv8A, so the compatible value for + this would be: + compatible = "arm,fvp-base,aemv8a-aemv8a", "arm,fvp-base"; |
