Introduction

The ARM platform has been widely used more and more, cloud providers and independent vendors now can provide various ARM platforms, e.g., AWS, Google and Ampere. ARM platform was widely used in edge/cloud servers, IoT and embedded systems. For now, StarlingX only works on x86 platform, it can't work on ARM platform without porting work. So, there are requirements to port StarlingX on ARM platform to enable it works as that of x86.
