S32r274 boot core

[burak_]

Hi,

I created a multi-core project for S32r274 in S32 DS. When ı installed the initialization functions(clock, timer) on Z4 core, project ran correctly. When ı installed the initalization functions on Z7_1, the functions on Z4 did not work, but the functions on Z7_2 worked. Does the Z4 core have to be a boot core? What should ı do to use the Z7 core as the boot core?

Hi,

Z4 core is default boot core. Default multi-core project in S32DS expects this configuration.

It is possible to change this by DCF record. See SSCM_UOPS register in the reference manual.

Then there's file S32R274_UTest_Memory_Map_DCF_Rev11.xlsx attached inside the reference manual. Default_core (I can see the terms are not unified here) can be changed in dcl_soc_conf_1.

You can take a look at this application note for more details about DCF configuration (section 4):

Also this DCF configurator will be useful:

The question is if it is worth changing it. But that's up to you.

Regards,

Lukas
