Hi,

Could you share the material or information how to coexist two OSs (e.g. RTOS and Linux) on one SoC (e.g. AM57x) ?

I heard that one core can be RTOS and the other core can virtualize Linux.

best regards,

HaTa.

Hi, HaTa,

Let's take the AM5728 as an example, it has 2 ARM and 2 DSP cores. Do you want to run Linux on ARM and RTOS on DSP core, or running RTOS in Linux ARM virtualization. In virtualization case, it will be on ARM core. Both are supported.

For Linux/ARM and RTOS/DSP, please read the thread, e2e.ti.com/.../770467, to see how it is done.
For virtualilzation, please read Linux Virtualization User Guide, software-dl.ti.com/.../Foundational_Components_Virtualization.html
