Just to let you know, I can't get this to work. aarch64 is supposed to be binary compatible, with the correct libraries installed, but I'm thinking the cpu isn't.
All I get is 'cannot execute binary file: Exec format error', regardless of what I try.
As I understand it the problem is page size - 64K was chosen by Red Hat for aarch64, where as 4K is the norm on armv7.
Anyway, you can run a 32 bit VM and it works well -- in fact a lot faster than regular 32 bit armv7 hardware.
Yes, with CONFIG_ARM64_4K_PAGES=y and CONFIG_COMPAT=y, 32 bit binaries run fine.
