Introduction


This page gives an overview of ipipsu driver which is available as part of the Xilinx Vivado and SDK distribution.

The heterogeneous multiprocessor system uses the inter-processor interrupt (IPI) structure
to exchange short interrupt-driven messages between processors in the system. The IPI
architecture allows the passing of messages across the system without the complications of
autonomous read-write transactions and polling inefficiency.


Source path for the driver:
https://github.com/Xilinx/embeddedsw/tree/master/XilinxProcessorIPLib/drivers/ipipsu/src

IPIĀ  Features

The IPIPSU block, provides the following features.
  • Supports processor communications including both an IPI interrupt structure and memory buffers to
    exchange short private 32B messages between eight IPI agents.
  • Supports both blocking and nonblocking calls.
