The aim of this target is to allow Simulink to generate code that runs in real-time on Linux. 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

Note: This target was tested with Matlab R2012b and R2013a and Humusoft MF624 cards with Linux kernels up to 3.12 RT on 64-bit Debian GNU/Linux system.
