Check out the notes in the QEMU documentation about
choosing a board model:
https://www.qemu.org/docs/master/system/target-arm.html#choosing-a-board-model

In particular, unless QEMU has a model of the particular hardware
board, then it won't be able to run an image built for that board.
So you need to build an image for a board type that QEMU does
simulate if you want to run on QEMU. QEMU (at least upstream QEMU)
doesn't have a model of the ls1046ardb, I'm afraid.
