Getting Started with Linux* OS for Intel® SoC FPGAs (OSOCLINUX)
Course Description
This course presents various Linux options available for Intel® SoC FPGAs with integrated ARM* Cortex* processors. You'll get an overview of the software development flow needed to create a Linux application. Then learn the details on the various versions of Linux supported including latest stable kernel, long term support initiative (LTSI), and LTSI with real time patches. We'll discuss the supported Linux* OS distribution, Angstrom. We will also discuss the tools and platforms used in the process including the RocketBoards community portal, Git, the Yocto Project* build environment, device trees, and the device tree generator. All can be utilized together to allow you to quickly build a custom Linux* OS including drivers for components in the hard processor system as well as the FPGA.At Course Completion
