| 2 | ------------- |
| 3 | The J721e family of SoCs are part of K3 Multicore SoC architecture platform |
| 4 | targeting automotive applications. They are designed as a low power, high |
| 5 | performance and highly integrated device architecture, adding significant |
| 6 | enhancement on processing power, graphics capability, video and imaging |
| 7 | processing, virtualization and coherent memory support. |
| 8 | |
| 9 | The device is partitioned into three functional domains, each containing |
| 10 | specific processing cores and peripherals: |
| 11 | 1. Wake-up (WKUP) domain: |
| 12 | - Device Management and Security Controller (DMSC) |
| 13 | 2. Microcontroller (MCU) domain: |
| 14 | - Dual Core ARM Cortex-R5F processor |
| 15 | 3. MAIN domain: |
| 16 | - Dual core 64-bit ARM Cortex-A72 |
| 17 | - 2 x Dual cortex ARM Cortex-R5 subsystem |
| 18 | - 2 x C66x Digital signal processor sub system |
| 19 | - C71x Digital signal processor sub-system with MMA. |

| 23 | Boot Flow: |
| 24 | ---------- |
| 25 | Boot flow is similar to that of AM65x SoC and extending it with remoteproc |
| 26 | support. Below is the pictorial representation of boot flow: |

| 117 | - Here DMSC acts as master and provides all the critical services. R5/A72 |
| 118 | requests DMSC to get these services done as shown in the above diagram. |
