Rasty,

The Training for PRU is here: https://software-dl.ti.com/processor-sdk-linux/esd/AM64X/08_06_00_42/exports/docs/common/PRU-ICSS/Overview.html#:~:text=PRU%2DICSS%3A%20The,AM57x%20and%20K2G.

There is some additional info available here:

In general, the hands-on labs are applicable to AM57x.

Best,

Josue

Hello Rasty,

The PRU subsection got removed from the latest AM57x SDK 9.3 documentation. I believe that is because the version of Linux in SDK 9.3 did not include the correct interrupt settings to enable the RPMsg example to load properly out-of-the-box. Josue can point you to the e2e thread where we provide the code patches to get that example running properly.

In the meantime, you can refer to the PRU subsection of the latest AM64x SDK docs. As you indicated, the PRU subsystem on AM57x is different from the PRU subsystem on AM64x. However, I wrote the documentation in a way that you are still able to use the same documentation if you are using AM57x.

Here's the top level overview, with important links:
https://software-dl.ti.com/processor-sdk-linux/esd/AM64X/10_00_07_04/exports/docs/common/PRU-ICSS/Overview.html

Here's the "Getting Started Labs". I would start there if I were you:
https://software-dl.ti.com/processor-sdk-linux/esd/AM64X/10_00_07_04/exports/docs/common/PRU-ICSS/PRU-Getting-Started-Labs.html

As I state in the "Supported Processors" section, those labs should apply to AM57x as well. If you run into any issues going through those labs, feel free to let us know.

Regards,

Nick
