3 This repository is the home for the Open Asymmetric Multi Processing (OpenAMP)
4 framework project. The OpenAMP framework provides software components that
5 enable development of software applications for Asymmetric Multiprocessing
6 (AMP) systems. The framework provides the following key capabilities.
8 1. Provides Life Cycle Management, and Inter Processor Communication
9 capabilities for management of remote compute resources and their associated
10 software contexts
11 2. Provides a stand alone library usable with RTOS and Baremetal software
12 environments
13 3. Compatibility with upstream Linux remoteproc and rpmsg components
14 4. Following AMP configurations supported
15 a. Linux master/Baremetal remote
16 b. Baremetal master/Linux remote
17 5. Proxy infrastructure and supplied demos showcase ability of proxy on master
18 to handle printf, scanf, open, close, read, write calls from Bare metal
19 based remote contexts.
21 Following are the known limitations:
23 1. In rpc_demo.c(the remote demonstration application that showcases usage of
24 rpmsg retargetting infrastructure), the bindings for the flag input
25 parameter in open() system call has been redefined. The GCC tool library
26 bindings for this input argument is different between arm-xilinx/none-eabi, and
27 arm-linux-eabi toolchains. For this reason, redefinition is required for
28 compatibility with proxy on Linux master.
30 For using the framework please refer to the documents present in the /docs folder.
