Dear Experts,
Is anyone aware of existing Linaro v8 kernel images with DP500 drivers that can be used in ARM FVP Base virtual platforms?
The FVP Base virtual platforms are those described here:
http://releases.linaro.org/latest/openembedded/aarch64/#tabs-4
We have been working with ARM ESL on integrating DP500 model and we do have the required licenses to access DP500 drivers but no one seem to know whether anyone has tried the Mali drivers on FVP Base.
Any feedback would be much appreciated.
Kind Regards,
JayC
I'm not an expert on DP-500, so can't help on that front. But the Base Platform model doesn't include a DP-500, so it would seem unlikely that there would be a Linux image for it including a DP-500 driver.
Hi jayc,
Work is still progressing regarding integration of the DP500 driver into the Linaro Kernel. As such currently the answer is no, the public cannot use the DP500 on the FVP.
If you are an ARM partner, then I recommend contacting ARM support instead of the public forum, there they may be able to assist you further.

Many thanks for the feedback. We will look out for DP500 support in Linaro.
