TDA4VM: Is it possible to load SDL using the SPL?

Hi,

Which boot mode are you using? Is there a specific reason you are loading via SPL?

Hi,

We are working on a project based on industrial safety, and we need to implement safety features on the TDA4VM.

We are using three cameras on Linux, with AI on the C66x and C71x. We need to use Linux+RTOS, but while using the SBL, it boots the A72 with HLOS.

Instead of building and using the SBL,Is it possible to boot the SDL .xer5f with SPL boot.

Is there any problem using the SDL with SPL?

SPL does not support remote core loading. So you will be unable to load the .xer5f images via SPL.

Hi,

The link below is a reference for loading using SPL/uBoot. Similarly, I can load the SDL:

Hi,

Yes, you can use U-boot to load the remote cores by loading the .xer5f images generated in the SDL/binary directory.

Hi,

Is there any internal will occurs while using the U-boot instead of SBL?

Is there any specific reason to load the SDL using the SBL?
