Hi,
I am just trying to learn the linux kernel booting process for arm32 Cortex A9 multi core SOC. I had understood the concept of booting in linux, but I am confused about the section where secondary cores enabling from primary core. Can somebody briefly…
Hi All,
My Juno board could run a big-endian kernel, but it just work in UP mode, when I compiled
the kernel in SMP mode, it always halted in "arch_spin_lock".
I checked the PE status, when halted, pc register alway…
ARM-based platforms come in a variety of processor configurations, and these platforms now often have more than one ARM processor. These multi-core platforms have usually been “Symmetric Multi-Processing…
With so many ARM based multicore boards coming to market we are hearing more about systems running multiple operating systems on similar cores (SMP, symmetric multi-processing) or differing cores (AMP, asymmetric multiprocessing). So why would…
So you are excited about the release of a new ARM-powered smartphone or tablet device – and why shouldn’t you be! You’ve made your way to your preferred tech review website where you discover that the device is running big.LITTLE™ t…
Previously, I explained how to create a minimal, single-core ARM® Cortex™-A15 system running Linux®. In this article I will update the hardware design to use a dual-core ARM Cortex-A15 CPU and run SMP (Symmetric Multiprocessing) Linux. While the first…
