How We Ported Linux to the M1
I feel like we're missing some of the details/steps here, perhaps because the folks at corellium have a bunch of existing experience with apple SoCs and as a result had non-public knowledge about the platform.For example: determining that interrupts were being routed to FIQ. It's unclear how one would have figured that was occurring. Or that there was an special AIC (apple interrupt controller) that needed talking to, and how to talk to it. It feels like there's a lot of "reverse engineer some Apple kernel bits" that's potentially being elided over.Edit: or alternately, some debug interface that isn't being mentioned (swd/jtag/itm).
