| Multicore SDK |
| ============= |
| |
| This is the top level Multicore SDK directory. This directory contains source code |
| for NXP's multicore support. |
| |
| |
| Prerequisites |
| ------------- |
| |
| There are several packages required to build multicore source code. |
| |
| erpcgen prerequisites: |
| - flex |
| - bison |
| - boost |
| |
| Documentation |
| ------------- |
| |
| Multicore SDK documents can be found in the top level MCUXpressoSDK doc directory: |
| "MCUXSDK_ROOT/docs/MULTICORE". |
| |
| Directory Structure |
| ------------------- |
| |
| (Not all MCUXpresso SDK packages contain the whole set of these folders) |
| |
| erpc - Embedded Remote Procedure Call. An infrastructure to abstract multicore |
| communication to fully user-definable sets of function calls. A host tool, |
| erpcgen, is provided to generate code to implement the multicore communication |
| layer for the defined function calls. Erpcgen is built for Linux, Windows, and |
| OS X. |
| |
| mcmgr - Multicore Manager. Provides control of second core startup and shutdown. |
| |
| rdmgr - Resource Domain Manager. Configures the XRDC periphal, which controls |
| access rights to peripherals and memory blocks. |
| |
| remoteproc - General source code used for remote cores (from the Linux perspective) |
| to allow easy remote core applications deployment/start/debug via the remoteproc |
| Linux framework. |
| |
| rpmsg_lite - Remote Processor Messaging Lite software component is a lightweight |
| implementation of the RPMsg protocol. Compared to the OpenAMP implementation, |
| the RPMsg-Lite offers a code size reduction, API simplification and improved |
| modularity. |
| |
| tools - Folder contains tools and utilities for multicore like prebuilt |
| versions of erpcgen and erpcsniffer. |
