Hi,

Thank you,
I've added the GONFIG_GPIO_PL061 (isn't it emulated on realview only?)
and CONFIG_KEYBOARD_GPIO and also added The CONFIG_POWER_RESET_GPIO.
But the QEMU still doesn't exit after halt -f.
Is there a Linux config file that is known to be able to make QEMU
exit that I and use as starting point?
I want to create a Linux (kernel) that is expected to run only as a guest.

best regards,

S.P.
