The purpose of this is for learning and fun, as far as we know there are no commercial use cases, but we hope there will be. > - what are the minimum and maximum memory configurations this has > been tested with? We both have only tested with 32MB of ram on i.MXRT1050/60-evk. > - what user space are you testing with: any particular distro that supports > this platform, and do you run elf-fdpic or flat binaries. We are using Buildroot[1] and that only uses flat binaries. i.MXRT1050/20 have already been up-streamed to U-Boot[2]. > - are you planning to also support the newer i.MXRT11xx or > Cortex-R based designs like the S32S? We plan to support the i.MXRT11xx, but unsure about the S32x, it depends on the interest. > > Arnd > [1]: https://github.com/Mr-Bossman/imxrt-linux-buildroot.git [2]: https://source.denx.de/u-boot/u-boot/-/blob/master/configs/imxrt1050-evk_defconfig Thank you, Jesse Taube.
