Hi Alexander,

I am trying to enable hypervisor in u-boot for DRA7(A15 based) family of 
SoCs which does not have LPAE support yet.

Is it mandatory for LPAE to be enabled before enabling hypervisor for A15?

I was looking at commit:

commit d990f5c834f1b42293fb53e4fd7f3aa988184196
Author: Alexander Graf <agraf at suse.de>
Date:   Wed Mar 16 15:41:21 2016 +0100

     arm: Add support for HYP mode and LPAE page tables

and the is_hyp always returns 0 when LPAE config option is not enabled.

Just wanted to confirm if that is mandatory.

Best Regards,
Keerthy
