[Qemu-discuss] qemu-system-aarch64 crashes when running aarch64 eabi bare-metal elf

[Mallikarjun Goudar]

Hi,
I built an "'hello world" application using aarch64-none-elf-gcc
(linaro gcc tools). And I tried to run generated elf using following
command:

qemu-system-aarch64 -M virt -cpu cortex-a57  -nographic -serial null
-monitor null -semihosting -kernel test.elf

I get following error:

qemu: fatal: Trying to execute code outside RAM or ROM at 0x0000000000000000

Am I missing any option here? Can anybody please guide me to run
simple hello world program using qemu-system-aarch64? I see a similar
discussion but did not get any help from that thread.
