Hi Sukesh


You do not need to configure 2 HPS in the Platform Designer.

In most use case we will be running Embedded Linux on the SOC and the Linux operating system will manage the cores.

The cores are enabled in the Kernel Device Tree, by default all cores are enabled in the Golden Reference Design.


The SMP and AMP are referring to the cores. It is possible to run different application on each core.

However, we do not recommend you doing that as we do not provide support in that area.
