The following are the main features that need to be implemented by such software: 1. Device management of the slave processors from the host processor. 2. Inter-processor communication between the cores for transfer and exchange of information between them. For implementing efficient inter-processor communication between the multiple cores on the device, the following hardware features are provided: • Mailbox interrupts • Hardware spinlocks Mailboxes provide a mechanism for one processor to write a value to a register and send an interrupt to another processor. Spinlocks facilitate access to shared resources in the system. 2.5.1 Mailbox Module The device Mailbox module facilitates communication between the ARM Cortex-A8 and the Media Controller. It consists of twelve mailboxes, each supporting communication between two of the above processors. The sender sends information to the receiver by writing a message to the mailbox registers. Interrupt signaling is used to notify the receiver that a message has been queued or to notify the sender about an overflow situation. The Mailbox module supports the following features (see Figure 2-2): • 12 mailboxes • Four-message FIFO depth for each message queue • 32-bit message width • Message reception and queue-not-full notification using interrupts • Three interrupts (one to ARM Cortex-A8, two to Media Controller).
