My understanding was that FVPs (at least the AEM versions) were freely licensed as to be a resource for open source developers.
However, after downloading and installing aem-armv8-FM000-KT-00059-r11p7-30rel0.tgz it always stops shortly after I try to run it complaining that it can't find a license.
I HAVE read the getting started guides and I can't find any mention of obtaining a license. I do see options on the web site to buy a license (not going to do that) or for a "eval" license.
I have not completed the eval license for the following reasons:
* I don't want ARM sales people contacting me about buying tools
* I don't want a license that expires after 90 days or whatever
* Locking the license to my enet MAC address seems very restrictive for a tool that I thought was "freely licensed"
Please let me know what I am doing wrong.
Can you also please clarify which FVPs are "freely licensed" and which ones are pay only?
Thanks,
Bill
Your right Rob that works for me.
That is where I thought I downloaded from but it must not have been. I _was_ clicking around a lot because I was confused about what was free and what was not. Over the weekend I tried the foundation model and it had worked fine.
I just retried the ARMv8_M download from the same section and had similar license issues. Is it suppose to be free?
(I am trying to get setup to test TF-A and TF-M the way ARM does)
Hi Bill, good to hear you are making progress and now have the FOC AEMv8-A model. We don't have an FOC AEMv8-M model available. Are you OK to take this conversation away from the Forum and contact me directly so we could discuss how we can enable you with an Armv8-M model?
Rob, thanks for your help. That is good for now. I will pursue other contacts for ARMv8. Thanks!
