ARM Cortex-A

Introduction

ERIKA3 supports Cortex-A ARMv8 processors with GICv2 interrupt controller.
The support on GitHub is currently limited to the RTOS running as a guest OS of the Jailhouse hypervisor.

Configuration and programming

CPU

The CPU_DATA object must be set to AARCH64.

Example of a CPU_DATA section:

   CPU_DATA = AARCH64 {
     ...
   };

SOC_DATA

The SOC_DATA object must be set to the specific SoC.

Example of a SOC_DATA section:

   SOC_DATA = NVIDIA_TEGRA_X1;

Tutorials

The support has been successfully tested on the following boards:

• Nvidia Jetson TX1 and TX2
• Xilinx ZCU102

In case you need support for bare-metal hardware or other hypervisors, please contact us.
