[Xen-users] Problem booting Xen on HiKey (ARMv8)



Hello,

I compiled Xen directly on the latest offical HiKey Debian release RPB
16.06. The release is base on Debian 8 "Jessie". I was able to create a
custom Grub2 boot entry for Xen, but system get's stuck after loading Xen:

Xen 4.7.0 (c/s Mon Jun 20 11:38:15 2016 +0100 git:9a6cc4f) EFI loader
Using configuration file 'xen.cfg'
hi6220-hikey.dtb: 0x0000000038791000-0x00000000387998b4
vmlinuz: 0x00000000372d5000-0x00000000381f7800
initrd.img: 0x00000000361f2000-0x00000000372d47b6

Does anybody has an idea why the system get's stuck or what the problem
could be?

My `xen.cfg`:

$ cat xen.cfg                             
[global]                                                                       

default=debian                                                                 

                                                                               

[debian]                                                                       

options=console=dtuart loglvl=all dom0_mem=512M dom0_max_vcpus=4
conswitch=x dt0
kernel=vmlinuz console=hvc0 root=/dev/mmcblk0p9 rootwait
rw                      
ramdisk=initrd.img                                                             

dtb=hi6220-hikey.dtb

The custom grub entry:

$ cat 40_custom                                    
#!/bin/sh                                                                      

exec tail -n +3
$0

above.                                                  
                                                                               

menuentry 'Debian with Xen EFI' --class debian --class gnu-linux --class
gnu --{
  insmod
part_gpt                                                              
  insmod
fat                                                                   
  set
root='hd0,gpt6'                                                          
  chainloader
/EFI/debian/xen.efi                                              
}
