Even with earlycon enabled, there is no output from the kernel on the console (see the attached console log). The same kernel boots fine on other arm64 systems - this appears to be X-Gene specific. A defconfig build boots fine on the same system - so I bisected down the relevant config change. The results were unexpected, but CONFIG_ARCH_ROCKCHIP=y appears to be required for X-Gene to boot. Digging down deeper, I found that the following 2 specific configs are required (I had to do hack Kconfigs to make them selectable independent of CONFIG_ARCH_ROCKCHIP): CONFIG_PINCTRL_ROCKCHIP=y CONFIG_ROCKCHIP_TIMER=y Both of which are drivers that do not bind to devices on X-Gene.
