# Hi-priority IPC example
This example demonstrates how to use Hi-priority IPC, it is based on Hi-priority interrupt (level 4). This feature can be useful in case when need quickly to get the state of the other CPU (consult the [Hi-priority IPC](https://docs.espressif.com/projects/esp-idf/en/latest/esp32/api-reference/system/ipc.html#hi-priority-ipc)).
In the `asm_funcs.S` file are functions that will be run on the other core. The function should be fairly simple that can be written in assembler.
The first asm function `get_ps_other_cpu()` demonstrates a simple way of usage, it returns the PS register of other core.
The second asm function `extended_ipc_isr_asm()` demonstrates way when need to do some complex operations on other core, for this, save registers to the buffer (regs[]) making them available for use. Then using passed arguments (in[]) do some work and write the result to out[]. At the end recover saved registers.
## How to use example
### Hardware Required
Example should be able to run on any commonly available ESP32 development board. The chip should have two cores.
### Configure the project
- `CONFIG_FREERTOS_UNICORE` - disabled,
- `CONFIG_ESP_IPC_ISR_ENABLE` - enabled.
```
idf.py menuconfig
```
### Build and Flash
```
idf.py build flash monitor
```
(To exit the serial monitor, type ``Ctrl-]``.)
See the [Getting Started Guide](https://docs.espressif.com/projects/esp-idf/en/latest/get-started/index.html) for full steps to configure and use ESP-IDF to build projects.
