Cortex-A55 MPCore Software Development
Course Objectives
Cortex-A55 MPCore
software development is a 4 days ARM official course.
The course goes into great depth and provides all necessary know-how to develop software for systems based on Cortex-A55 processors.
The course introduces the ARMv8-A architecture, instruction set, and the new model to handle interrupts and exceptions.
The course continues by covering the Cortex-A55 MPCore architecture based on DynamIQ technology, memory management unit, memory model, cache and branch prediction, cache coherency, processes synchronization, boot process, barriers, virtualization, Generic Interrupt Controller (GIC), System MMU (SMMU), power management, debug, security, RAS support, and DynamIQ Shared Unit (DSU).
