hi team,

i am ordering MCIMX8QM-CPU i need to beingup Android and Freertos

do we need Jailhouse hypervisor here and how to download android source to compile and flash?

As you can see in the i.MX8QM datasheet:

It has 2 Cortex M4 processors.

So, you can run heterogeneous processing, running Linux in Cortex A, and run RTOS in Cortex M, in an independent way.

So, you do not need to use any hypervisor.

Best regards,

Salas.

@Manuel_Salas this info I am aware but requirement is to run Android and freertos on top of hypervisor.

MCIMX8QM-CPU -soc

Not possible?

This is "Technically" possible, but we have not any examples of how to do it.

You can refer to the HARPOON as starter point.

Best regards,

Salas.

@Manuel_Salas which Hypervisor is best for latest kernal?

Xen or jailhouse?

On last kernel is just supported Jailhouse for i.MX8QM.

Best regards,
