Demo: echo_test

This demo uses the Linux kernel rpmsg framework to send various size of data buffer to remote processor and validates integrity of received buffer from remote processor. If buffer data does not match, then number of different bytes are reported on console.

Platform: Xilinx Zynq UltraScale+ MPSoC(a.k.a ZynqMP)

Board: ZynqMP Zcu102

Remote Processor firmware (image_echo_test)

• Remote processor firmware for Xilinx ZynqMP cortex-r5 platform based on: rpmsg-echo.c

• Instructions to compile: ZynqMP r5f generic baremetal

• RPU firmware elf file is expected in sdk at path: /lib/firmware/

• Xilinx Vendor specific SDK is required to build RPU firmware: Xilinx Petalinux

• More information is provided here: Xilinx Wiki page for OpenAMP

Run the demo

Assume all the binaries are board specific.
