Feb 22 10:20:02 <kaustubhshan27[m> What are the advantages of Remoteproc over UIO? Referring to  the project "Porting am335x_pru_package to remoteproc".
Feb 22 17:51:11 <zeekhuge[m]> UIO is like just randome memory access
Feb 22 17:51:23 <zeekhuge[m]> while Remoteproc is more systematic
Feb 22 17:51:41 <zeekhuge[m]> and very well supported by the kernel
Feb 22 17:51:58 <zeekhuge[m]> and can be used to allow PRUs use other resources as well
Feb 22 17:52:16 <zeekhuge[m]> like DMA access
Feb 22 17:53:19 <zeekhuge[m]> Also, using remoteproc, PRUs can become act as different hardware devices (implemented by code on the PRU)
Feb 22 17:54:35 <zeekhuge[m]> for example, if the firmware on PRU can read/write data using SPI interface, then using remoteproc, PRUs can act as if it was a SPI device itself, and the SPI system will just work with it
Feb 22 21:45:25 <praked[m]> Hi, I am Pranav Kedia, I have already opened a pull request for the qualifying task and tested the binary with qemu. I was going the given project ideas and I am interested in 'Reference Design For A GPIO-based Parallel Bi-Directional Bus'. I have gone through the following references  http://www.ti.com/lit/ds/sdfs071b/sdfs071b.pdf , https://www.arduino.cc/en/Tutorial/ShiftOut .
Feb 22 21:48:57 <praked[m]> can anyone please get me started so I could dig deeper into this?
