I'm using a SABRE SD board (from Freescale) based on i.MX6 and the u-boot
version is the 2014.04 one. What I've been trying to do is to activate the
secondary cores so that I would be able to use them. First of all I've imported
the commands cpu status/release/reset, then I checked if they were working in
this way:
U-boot > cpu 1 status (which gives as result: core1 disabled ...)

Next step was to run a standalone application on secondary cores. First I
checked the hello_world application, but it seems that the serial debug for
secondary cores is not set (but I'm not sure). So I wrote an application to
check if I could get changes in memory. This is the simple application (I just
modified the hello_world one):
Please refer to
http://www.denx.de/wiki/view/DULG/UBootStandalone#Section_5.12.4.
One of the first things done by the example stand alone application is
to attempt to call back into U-Boot. This will not work correctly for
cores other than 0.
