They are designed as a low power, high +performance and highly integrated device architecture, adding significant +enhancement on processing power, graphics capability, video and imaging +processing, virtualization and coherent memory support. + +The device is partitioned into three functional domains, each containing +specific processing cores and peripherals: +1. Wake-up (WKUP) domain: + - Device Management and Security Controller (DMSC) +2. Microcontroller (MCU) domain: + - Dual Core ARM Cortex-R5F processor +3. MAIN domain: + - Dual core 64-bit ARM Cortex-A72 + - 2 x Dual cortex ARM Cortex-R5 subsystem + - 2 x C66x Digital signal processor sub system + - C71x Digital signal processor sub-system with MMA. + +More info can be found in TRM: http://www.ti.com/lit/pdf/spruil1 + +Boot Flow: +---------- +Boot flow is similar to that of AM65x SoC and extending it with remoteproc +support.
