Instructions for building and running the CCA stack on QEMU, both as
system emulation and VMM, are available here:
https://linaro.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/QEMU/pages/29051027459/Building+an+RME+stack+for+QEMU

I'll send out the QEMU VMM patches shortly:
https://git.codelinaro.org/linaro/dcap/qemu.git branch cca/v2

Thanks,
