ARM Cortex-R5 Emulation (QEMU)
##############################
Overview
********
This board configuration will use QEMU to emulate the Xilinx Zynq UltraScale+
(ZynqMP) platform.
This configuration provides support for an ARM Cortex-R5 CPU and these devices:
* ARM PL-390 Generic Interrupt Controller
* Xilinx Zynq TTC (Cadence TTC)
* Xilinx Zynq UART
.. note::
This board configuration makes no claims about its suitability for use
with an actual ZCU102 hardware system, or any other hardware system.
Hardware
********
Supported Features
==================
The following hardware features are supported:
+--------------+------------+----------------------+
| Interface | Controller | Driver/Component |
+==============+============+======================+
| GIC | on-chip | generic interrupt |
| | | controller |
+--------------+------------+----------------------+
| TTC | on-chip | system timer |
+--------------+------------+----------------------+
| UART | on-chip | serial port |
+--------------+------------+----------------------+
The kernel currently does not support other hardware features on this platform.
Devices
========
System Timer
------------
This board configuration uses a system timer tick frequency of 1000 Hz.
Serial Port
-----------
This board configuration uses a single serial communication channel with the
on-chip UART0.
Known Problems or Limitations
==============================
The following platform features are unsupported:
* Dual-redundant Core Lock-step (DCLS) execution is not emulated.
* Xilinx Zynq TTC driver does not support tickless mode operation.
Programming and Debugging
*************************
Use this configuration to run basic Zephyr applications and kernel tests in the
QEMU emulated environment, for example, with the :zephyr:code-sample:`synchronization` sample:
.. zephyr-app-commands::
:zephyr-app: samples/synchronization
:host-os: unix
:board: qemu_cortex_r5
:goals: run
This will build an image with the synchronization sample app, boot it using
QEMU, and display the following console output:
.. code-block:: console
