The term HLOS stands for High Level OS, it means linux in this case. The
HLOS runs on APPS processor.

There are some other sub-processors like modem, adsp etc, they do not
have a High Level OS. The OS in these sub-processors is lightweight,
less powerful, somewhat real-time, it would be called NON-HLOS.

There is coresight source or sink in sub-processor, it would be
configured by NON-HLOS, and need HLOS to configure the last coresight
components. So we will use dummy source or sink to replace it in HLOS
side for building the whole path(from source to sink).
Thanks,
