RE: How should I give the command to install ubuntu on aarch64 virt machine? (error in arm_gicv3_cpuif.c during boot)

[ckim]

Hi, Peter Maydell,

When I tried with qem7u-5.2.0, it doesn't give me that gicv3 error message. 
(I tried with the patch, it gave me error)
Anyway when I tried exactly the same procedure with the ubuntu 18.0.4 (but with 
5.2.0) as in this page 
(https://futurewei-cloud.github.io/ARM-Datacenter/qemu/how-to-launch-aarch64-vm/),
 the install 
was successful and I could login to ubuntu 18.0.4! (it took very long time)
I think I should try it with ubuntu20.0.4 equivalent .iso 
(http://ports.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-ports/dists/focal-updates/main/installer-arm64/current/legacy-images/netboot/mini.iso)
 to install ubuntu 20.04.

If I want to use the latest (in which the forementioned gicv3 bug was fixed) 
qemu version, how can I get the source code? 

Thanks!
Chan Kim
