AM6442: 在linux-rt系统中A53与R5通讯延迟问题

Part Number: AM6442

在下面网址中下载了Ti的linux内核并切换到ti-rt-linux6.6.y-cicd版本,使用的是RT版的linux内核

https://git.ti.com/cgit/ti-linux-kernel/ti-linux-kernel/

使用如下rpmsg_char_simple.c例子代码如下:

测试10万多次,并设置优先级,命令为./rpmsg_char_simple -r 2 -n 100000 & chrt -f -p 10 $!,测试结果如下图

从图中可以看出,最大的延迟时间在1177us,这个延迟时间太大了,目前不符合我们这边的要求,是否还有优化的空间?
