We provide a tested software environment for the armStoneMX8ULP. Part of this environment is the Linux Yocto release and the BSP for the Cortex-M33. Announcements about new versions of this package are made in the support forum.
Yocto
| Architecture | Type | Release Name | Bootloader | Kernel | OS | Help File | Software |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| FSIMX8ULP | Yocto | fsimx8ulp-Y2024.04-pre | U-Boot 2024.04 | Linux 6.1.55 | Yocto 4.2 Mickledore |
For the CPU NXP i.MX8ULP F&S offers a Yocto based environment. In addition, F&S provide a BSP for FreeRTOS and bare metall programming. This BSP makes it easier to use features of Cortex-M33.
Yocto has established itself as the standard for Linux build environments in recent years. Our standard configuration, which is intended to give a first impression of the module's functionality, includes the following features: Busybox, gdb, alsa-utils, gstreamer, fbv, X11R7, matchbox, feh, openssl, openssh, ncurses, can-utils, iproute2, ftpd, httpd, telnet, tftp, and much more.
F&S also offers a virtual machine (based on VirtualBox) with an installed Linux based on the Fedora distribution for free download. All packages necessary to translate our software are already installed. All services (NFS, TFTP) for working with our boards are also installed. Our BSP is unpacked and precompiled in the right directories. With this virtual machine it doesn't matter whether you use Windows or Linux as the host. Simply download the VHD, import it into VirtualBox and development can begin immediately.
FreeRTOS
In addition to the 2 Cortex-A35 cores, the NXP i.MX 8ULP SoC also has a Cortex-M33 core. The Cortex-M33 core is particularly suitable for real-time tasks or for power saving.
F&S offers a completely tested BSP for the use of the Cortex-M33 for FreeRTOS or Bare Metal application.
