It looks like the BSP requires initialization of the board by u-boot.
IMHO qemu probably does it on its own, but still when using u-boot to
boot properly created hello.img as described on:

https://docs.rtems.org/branches/master/user/bsps/bsps-powerpc.html

I'm still getting hang in UART. Anyway, I'm not booting by tftpboot, but
by giving kernel option to qemu:

And the hang is still the same:

Any idea how to proceed with debugging this highly appreciated. The bsp
was configured with:

../rtems/configure --prefix=$HOME/sfw/rtems/5/ --target=powerpc-rtems5
--enable-posix --enable-tests --enable-rtemsbsp="qoriq_e6500_64"


My next options I see from here are:

- experiment with BSP's options: QORIQ_UART_0_ENABLE,
QORIQ_UART_BRIDGE_0_ENABLE

- experiment with Qemu tracing capability and see what Qemu sees on its
UART called/pushed by RTEMS.

Thanks,
Karel
