I can't remember the history of that patch. What I couldn't figure out today was what its effect would be. I could not find any u-boot code that used the CONFIG_XXX values added in the patch. So, best ignore it. Do you have an emulator available yet? If so the easiest way I found to debug this type of issue was to: 1. Insert an infinite loop just before where I thought I had a problem - in a .S file with loopHere: b loopHere - in a C file with volatile unsigned char loopHere=1; function() { .... while(loopHere); .... } 2 boot the board 3 connect the emulator to the target and then load the symbols for the executable (u-boot.img or xen) 4 in the emulator set the PC to first instruction after the loop and then step over the code. Then you can check the register values to see if hypevisor is enabled etc Iain On Mon, 17 Jun 2019 at 09:53, Denis Obrezkov <denisobrezkov@xxxxxxxxx> wrote: > > Hi, > > On 6/17/19 10:11 AM, Iain Hunter wrote: > > Hi Denis, > > > > patch 0004 was not actually applied to the u-boot build (and should > > have been removed from the patch set).
