Are there any updates planned for these? The processor uses a ARM Cortex A9 dual core CPU, so I was wondering where one draws on from, in order to get an accurate representation of the processor. e.g. use TRM for Zynq-7020 and then look a a TI OMAP 4430 or Freescale i.MX 6 dual core machine configuration, etc? AFAIK, yes. Xilinx themselves are gearing up to take over this work, but I can't speak for them, and haven't heard anything since before I went on vacation. I'm hoping that this will pick up again soon. > > The kernel and u-boot recipes, I can migrate to the latest 3.5 and 2012.x versions, so that shouldn't be a problem for me. ok! At some point the layer will become (hopefully) yocto BSP compliant, and at that point we'll get some consistency in kernel version where it will be on one of the yocto versions, LTSI, etc, since spraying all over the map on versions doesn't help everyone :) Cheers, Bruce > > Best regards, > > Elvis Dowson > >
