Status of ARM Cortex-A55 CPU support

[Patrice Blin]

Hi,

As of version 7.0.50 (v7.0.0-1647-g028f2361d0), cortex-a55 is not part of the available CPUs.

I would like to know if support is on the horizon or should I rely on -cpu max ?

While googling, I found this question was asked last year

https://www.mail-archive.com/qemu-discuss@nongnu.org/msg06242.html

Since then I see neoverse-n1 was added.

How close is qemu to support cortex-a55 ?

Is -cpu max enough ?

Thanks,
