Hi Amit, Please tell me a tentative date for the new release of codezero toolkit which will obtain the memory configuration from the applications' elf headers so that I will be able to execute bare-metal applications for device-interaction on Pandaboard( using codezero hypervisor ).
The current configuration of 0x3000 bytes for RX pages and 0x2000 bytes for RW pages has really become a major blocker for my development activity on Codezero Hypervisor. Hence, I will be glad to know some tentative date which will help me to schedule my activity on codezero hypervisor.
