Support FreeRTOS SMP in future release

[digitalnumeric]

Since AMP is not supported for the Zynq UltraScale+ APU (A53-0 thru A53-3), it would be useful if FreeRTOS with SMP was supported.

According to this link: FreeRTOS SMP on Github, SMP support has been merged into the main FreeRTOS-Kernel beginning with FreeRTOS v11.

Quote from the link above:
"FreeRTOS SMP feature has been merged into FreeRTOS-Kernel main branch. We recommend you to use the FreeRTOS-Kernel main branch to develop FreeRTOS SMP applications.”

Hi,
We dont have any plans to officially support FreeRTOS SMP for various reasons and our marketing requirements.

If not FreeRTOS with SMP, has the team considered supporting another RTOS such as RTEMS, ThreadX or maybe Zephyr?

We are moving to Zephyr.
