AAOS - Run software on M4

[Danilo3]

Hello everybody,

I'm currently using AAOS version 13.1.0_1.1.0 on my i.MX 8QuadMax MEK.

I have modified the SCFW in order to have FlexCAN in the list of pads in M4 1 partition.

If I have an application, let's say "M4_1_image.bin", how can I make it run on the M4 processor?

Which are the steps to somehow include such bin into the ${MY_ANDROID}/out/target/product/mek_8q directory, then flash it to the board?

Thank you for your support.

Hello,

I managed to understand where to place my executable. For M4 core 1, it has to replace file imx8qm_m4_1_default.bin in the directory ${MY_ANDROID}/vendor/nxp/fsl-proprietary/mcu-sdk/imx8q/ (keeping the same name as the default one).

Then I just rebuilt the bootloader and flashed the image to the board.
