runqemu - ERROR - Failed to run qemu: qemu-system-aarch64: Virtio VGA not available.


Edgar Mobile
 

Greetings,

I tried to run an Aarch64 Yocto with qemu on amd 64 Host. For that purpose, I built core-image-weston from Hardknott following the manual


I then try to run

runqemu sdl gl

But it always aborts with

runqemu - ERROR - Failed to run qemu: qemu-system-aarch64: Virtio VGA not available.

What can I do?

Regards


Alexander Kanavin
 

This configuration is not tested. If you want accelerated gl, build
for the qemux86-64 target.

Sorry, but I need an Aarch64 guest.

Ok, using a newer qemu I now encounter the following problem:

What is this bochs-drm_dri.so and does Yocto / the Mesa in Yocto provide it?

If you want an aarch guest on x86, then drop the gl option from
runqemu. This will fall back to software rendering.

I tried that first and it was horribly slow. That's why I try hardware acceleration now.

Do you _know_ it doesn't work? If yes, why?

As I told you, we do not support or test this combination. Which means
that figuring out what the error messages mean and how to fix them is
on you - patches welcome.

Ah, that's an interesting information.
The dmesg log gives the impression that virgl starts correctly and in the normal shell the examples work flawlessly. The problems start once I tell weston to use the ivi-shell instead of the desktop shell.

Okay, I finally got it running. What I did:

Now I have a comfy Gles 3.2 context!

Ah, that's an interesting information.
The dmesg log gives the impression that virgl starts correctly and in the normal shell the examples work flawlessly. The problems start once I tell weston to use the ivi-shell instead of the desktop shell.

There is no hardware acceleration with bochs at all, if you want it,
you need to make virtio/virgl driver work.
