+Booting the ast2700fc machine
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+AST2700 features four Cortex-A35 primary processors and two Cortex-M4 coprocessors.
+**ast2700-evb** machine focuses on emulating the four Cortex-A35 primary processors,
+**ast2700fc** machine extends **ast2700-evb** by adding support for the two Cortex-M4 coprocessors.
+
+Steps to boot the AST2700fc machine:
+
+1. Ensure you have the following AST2700A1 binaries available in a directory
+
+ * u-boot-nodtb.bin
+ * u-boot.dtb
+ * bl31.bin
+ * optee/tee-raw.bin
+ * image-bmc
+ * zephyr-aspeed-ssp.elf (for SSP firmware, CPU 5)
+ * zephyr-aspeed-tsp.elf (for TSP firmware, CPU 6)
+
+2. Execute the following command to start ``ast2700fc`` machine:
+
+.. code-block:: bash
+
+ IMGDIR=ast2700-default
+ UBOOT_SIZE=$(stat --format=%s -L ${IMGDIR}/u-boot-nodtb.bin)
+
+ $ qemu-system-aarch64 -M ast2700fc \
+ -device loader,force-raw=on,addr=0x400000000,file=${IMGDIR}/u-boot-nodtb.bin \
+ -device loader,force-raw=on,addr=$((0x400000000 + ${UBOOT_SIZE})),file=${IMGDIR}/u-boot.dtb \
+ -device loader,force-raw=on,addr=0x430000000,file=${IMGDIR}/bl31.bin \
+ -device loader,force-raw=on,addr=0x430080000,file=${IMGDIR}/optee/tee-raw.bin \
+ -device loader,cpu-num=0,addr=0x430000000 \
+ -device loader,cpu-num=1,addr=0x430000000 \

+ -snapshot \
+ -S -nographic
+
+After launching QEMU, serial devices will be automatically redirected.
+Example output:
+
+.. code-block:: bash
+
+ char device redirected to /dev/pts/55 (label serial0)
+ char device redirected to /dev/pts/56 (label serial1)
+ char device redirected to /dev/pts/57 (label serial2)
+
+- serial0: Console for the four Cortex-A35 primary processors.
+- serial1 and serial2: Consoles for the two Cortex-M4 coprocessors.
+
+Use ``tio`` or another terminal emulator to connect to the consoles:
+
+.. code-block:: bash
+
+ $ tio /dev/pts/55
+ $ tio /dev/pts/56
+ $ tio /dev/pts/57
