Virtualization on the PinebookPro - astr0baby - 01-14-2020
Starting a thread on Virtualization technology possible on the PinebookPro
Wrote a summary on how to use
KVM accelerated qemu-system-aarch64
Non aarch64 qemu-system-xxxx (powerpc, powerpc64 ... can be anything else really like i386 and x86_64)
SimH (VAX - OpenVMS and Ultrix UNIX + 4.3BSD)
Hyperion - Hercules (SystemZ Mainframes )

Awesome articles, thanks for sharing!
Have you tried GPU passthrough on the PBP? Will it work?

Are you running Manjaro ? And how did you build qemu ?

Yeah , just checked the it just gets stuck now in the Tiano Core "start boot option" ... Im on panfrost too, I had no idea this could be affecting this, but its rather trange, it worked really well earlier (did not really used it afterwards) I recall Manjaro was on kernel 5.4 (and Im using a same build of qemu from Dec 1 2019)
I will try to reinstall fbturbo and check with that (I have used that primarily a long time before switching to panfrost) but it sounds really strange why should it behave like it does now ...
I will update this post once I know whats going on more ...
RE: Virtualization on the PinebookPro - astr0baby - 01-29-2020
Anybody here still has the Manjaro Pinebookpro Preview 4 candidate ? With the Kernel 5.4 https://osdn.net/projects/manjaro-arm/storage/pbpro/xfce/preview4/\
I need to see what was changed from 5.4 to 5.5 .. there seems to be some issues (performance wise) with the latest Manjaro 5.5.0 kernel and qemu-system-aarch64 KVM
RE: Virtualization on the PinebookPro - aaspectre - 01-29-2020
yeah im on updated manjaro/panfrost
havent tried switching to fbturbo yet but i will tonight and report back if you dont get to it first
RE: Virtualization on the PinebookPro - astr0baby - 01-29-2020
OK, so the fault is with the kernel 5.5.0
Just did a clean install of https://osdn.net/projects/manjaro-arm/storage/pbpro/kde-plasma/19.12/Manjaro-ARM-kde-plasma-pbpro-19.12.img.xz on a separate micorSD card ,
disabled kernel updates in /etc/pacman.confg
IgnorePkg = linux-pinebookpro
Upgraded the system to latest packages while keeping the kernel 5.4.0-1.5 and Windows 10 arm64 works perfectly again
