RTEMS in the Zynq Ultrascale+

[Mike Looijmans]

Not actively working on it, but I'd be quite interested in following your 
progress.

As startup tips:
The ZynqMP expects to boot Linux in the Cortex cores, and then use 
"remoteproc" to start the R5 cores. There is some example code that runs 
FreeRTOS on the R5 like that, and I think that that would be a good starting 
point for your RTEMS port.

The Zynq only has Cortex A9 cores, the RTEMS examples on that run stand-alone 
as far as I know, and not in AMP mode alongside Linux.

Using remoteproc instead of "bare metal" will speed up development 
considerably, as it allows you to control everything from the Linux system 
running on the application cores.
