Subject: qemu: arm: mounting ubifs using nandsim on busybox

Hi All,

I am trying to emulate ubifs using nandsim (built-in), qemu-arm,
busybox and kernel-5.4.
I hope that this combination already works, so I am here to sort out
my booting issues with these.
Few details before I describe my issue:
a) I have already created a working busybox image for arm32 (_install folder).
b) Using this I have created the ubifs image using mkfs.ubifs.
c) Then I have also created the final ubifs-root image using the
ubinize command.
d) I have also built the kernel-5.4 for arm vexpress
e) This kernel is working fine with the same busybox initramfs image.
f) Now I want to use nandsim to emulate ubifs in the same environment.

For (f) I have used the below command:
$ qemu-system-arm -M virt -m 512M -kernel linux/arch/arm/boot/zImage
-append "ubi.mtd=1 root=/dev/mtdblock0 roottype=ubifs
console=ttyAMA0,115200" -drive
if=mtd,driver=raw,cache=writeback,file=./ubi-boot.img,id=mtd1 -device
nand,chip_id=0x39,manufacturer_id=0x98,drive=mtd1  -nographic -smp 4

But I get these errors during boot.

1f01          131072 mtdblock1
 (driver?)
No filesystem could mount root, tried:
 ext3
 ext4
 ext2
 cramfs
 squashfs
 vfat

Kernel panic - not syncing: VFS: Unable to mount root fs on unknown-block(31,0)

---------------------------
I also tried to replace the ubifs with squashfs but its the same result.

Here is the complete logs:

=============================

If any one has used nandsim on qemu before, please let us know the exact steps.

I even tried to use the machine type as vexpress-a9 but its almost the
same issue.

$ qemu-system-arm -M vexpress-a9 -m 512M -kernel
linux/arch/arm/boot/zImage -dtb
linux/arch/arm/boot/dts/vexpress-v2p-ca9.dtb -append

if=mtd,driver=raw,cache=writeback,file=./ubi-boot.img,id=mtd2
-nographic -smp 4

But with this also I get these errors:
[...]
