This allows us to boot FreeBSD RISCV on QEMU using the -kernel command line options. When using that option, QEMU maps the kernel ELF file to the addresses specified in the LMAs in the program headers. Since version 4.2 QEMU ships with OpenSBI fw_jump by default so this allows booting FreeBSD using the following command line: qemu-system-riscv64 -bios default -kernel /.../boot/kernel/kernel -nographic -M virt Without this change the -kernel option cannot be used since the LMAs start at address zero and QEMU already maps a ROM to these low physical addresses. For targets that require a different kernel LMA the make variable KERNEL_LMA can be overwritten in the config file. For example, adding `makeoptions KERNEL_LMA=0xc0200000` will create an ELF file that will be loaded at 0xc0200000.

FreeBSD is an operating system used to power modern servers, desktops, and embedded platforms. A large community has continually developed it for more than thirty years. Its advanced networking, security, and storage features have made FreeBSD the platform of choice for many of the busiest web sites and most pervasive embedded networking and storage devices.
