Sharing devices between multicore running different kernels
Hi All, I have a board that has two different cores in the same SoC. We run two different kernels on those two processors. I want to share devices between two cores (hdd, nwk etc) with minimum...

Virt-io depends on an emulated PCI bus, for device discovery. That could complicate things, since you would either have to hack the virtio drivers, or the PCI code... You also need memory coherency...

Hi Riel, Thank you for your reply. I will try some simple implementation. What I have in mind right now is to take the user space pointers from one core to other and then just pass it to the actual...

Your idea makes sense. I suspect hacked up virtio drivers should work for your situation, given that you have a way to get memory coherency. Apologies for your problems with the spam filter. I have...
