The project has been initiated and is maintained by: Czech Technical University in Prague Faculty of Electrical Engineering Department of Control Engineering https://control.fel.cvut.cz/
The aim of this target is to allow Simulink to generate code that runs in real-time on Linux, preferably with fully preemptive kernel. This target tries to be minimalist in the sense that it reuses as much as possible from Simulink built-in targets.
In Matlab prompt execute:
cd <root>/ert_linux/ert_linux
ert_linux_setup
From now on, Code Generation pane of Simulink Model Configuration
Parameters should offer ert_linux.tlc as System Target File (after
pressing "Browse...." button).
In order to cross-compile the generated source, modify the "Make command" in Code Generation pane to set the CC variable (and/or CPP for C++ compiler). For example:
make_rtw CC=arm-linux-gnueabi-gcc

In addition to the target documentation, there are documented applications (PMSM control, CAN etc.) and related packages for SocketCAN, Humusoft MF624 data acquisition boards and more at related Lintarget site

This target has been tested with Matlab R2019b and Humusoft MF624 cards with Linux kernels up to 4.19 RT on 64-bit x86 Debian GNU/Linux system, ARM based Xilinx Zynq systems and AArch64 Nvidia based systems. Experimental support for NuttX RTOS for small MCUs is included as well.
Big thanks for help with update to R2019b and other advices to Jan Houska Houska@humusoft.cz .
