+[[arm]]
+== arm
+
+First build:
+
+....
+./build -a arm
+./run -a arm
+....
+
+Debug:
+
+....
+./run -a arm -d
+# On another terminal.
+./rungdb -a arm
+....
+
+TODOs:
+
+* only managed to run in the terminal interface (but weirdly a blank
+QEMU window is still opened)
+* GDB not connecting to KGDB. Possibly linked to `-serial stdio`. See
+also:

+./build -a aarch64
+....
+
+TODOs:
+
+* GDB gives a ton of messages:
++
+....
+no module object found for ''
+....
++
+when you connect. `Ctrl + C` then `c` works though.
+* How to add devices to `-M virt` as we did for `-M versatilepb`
