Introduction
Inter/Intra Processor Communication (IPC) is a product designed to enable communication between processors in a multi-processor environment. Features of IPC include message passing, multi-processor gates, shared memory primitives, and more.

IPC is designed for use with processors running SYS/BIOS applications. This is typically an ARM or DSP. IPC includes support for High Level Operating Systems (HLOS) like Linux, as well as the SYS/BIOS RTOS. The breadth of IPC features supported in an HLOS environment is reduced in an effort to simplify the product.

Install
IPC is often distributed and installed within a larger SDK. In those cases, no installation is required.

Outside of an SDK, IPC can be downloaded here, and is released as a zip file. To install, simply extract the file. buildhost$ unzip ipc_ .zip This will extract the IPC product in a directory with its product name and version information (e.g. c:/ti/ipc_ )
