Hi everyone,
I have a rather high-level question. I want to conduct a research centered around Linux memory analysis for security purposes. Using Cyclone V SoC, will I be able to access OS memory footprint from custom IP built in FPGA fabric? Also, judging from TRM there's a powerful SDRAM controller interface. Is there a way to map every (near every) CPU request (at least memory address being accessed) to be somehow logged via FPGA? Thank you!
