A top-level PS application running on the Cortex-A72 processor controls the AI Engine graph and the PL kernels. In Module 05, you created a PS host application for a bare-metal system. In this module, you will create a PS host application that runs on a Linux operating system (built in Module 07).
Linux host applications use the Xilinx Runtime (XRT) API to control the PL and AI Engine kernels. In this tutorial, XRT is used to access the AI Engine graph and generic UIO drivers to access the PL kernels.
