This is the support for the ARM Foundation v8 machine emulated by the ARM software simulator of the AArch64 architecture. First, one has to download the AArch64 software simulator from: https://silver.arm.com/download/download.tm?pv=1317469 Then, use the arm_foundationv8_defconfig configuration to build your Buildroot system. Note that the Busybox build will fail due to the lack of rpc/rpc.h (the AArch64 toolchain does not have RPC support). Run 'make busybox-menuconfig', and in 'Linux System Utilities', disable the option 'Support mounting NFS file systems on Linux < 2.6.23' and restart the build. This problem will be fix in upcomins versions of Buildroot. Finally, boot your system with: ${LOCATION_OF_FOUNDATIONV8_SIMULATOR}/Foundation_v8 \ --image output/images/linux-system.axf \ --block-device output/images/rootfs.ext2 \ --network=nat You can get network access from within the simulated environment by requesting an IP address using DHCP (run the command 'udhcpc').
