-Synopsys VDK Software Development Platform
-
-Intro
-=====
-
-The Virtualizer Development Kit (VDK) Family for ARM Cortex Products
-consists of a set of virtual prototypes that provide a virtualizer for
-the ARM core variants. The VDK is a standalone package that runs on an
-host computer.
-
-Buildroot will generate the kernel image and a minimal root filesystem.
-
-How to build it
-===============
-
-Configure Buildroot
--------------------
-
-Configuring Buildroot is pretty simple, just execute:
-
-  $ make snps_aarch64_vdk_defconfig
-
-Build the rootfs and kernel
----------------------------
-
-Note: you will need to have access to the network, since Buildroot will
-download the packages' sources.
-
-You may now build your rootfs with:
-
-  $ make
-
-(This may take a while)
-
-Result of the build
--------------------
-
-After building, you should obtain this tree:
-
-    output/images/
-    -- rootfs.ext2
-    -- Image
-
-Installing your rootfs and Image
-================================
-
-Now copy the content of the output/images folder to the VDK' skins
-folder:
-
-   $ cp rootfs.ext2 Image <vdk_installation_path>/skins/Vanilla-Cortex/ARMv8
-
-
-Starting the VDK
-================================
-
-Go the VDK' installation root and execute the 'start' script:
-
-   $ cd <vdk_installation_path>
-   $ ./start.sh
-
-The VP Explorer application will be executed, starting the simulation
-automatically.
-
-For more information about Synopsys' VDK please check:
