IntroductionEdit
This application note describes how to build the software components required to set up asymmetric multi-processing (AMP for short) configuration required to run Linux OS on first Cortex-A9 core and FreeRTOS on second Cortex-A9 core of the Zynq SOC. Two different examples are provided. The first one – HelloWorld – shows basic functionalities while the second – RPMsg-based application – exploits more sophisticated techniques to handle inter-processors communication and synchronization.
