Which embedded processors are the closest to x86 multicore systems, that is, which has shared memory, cache coeherence and memory management etc. I am asking because I want to know how easy it is to port system applications written for x86 to embedded systems. I am especially interested in embedded systems using Linux (Embedded Linux).
MIPS, Arm, Tilera, Cavium , Freescale and IBM (PowerPC) all make processors that fit what you describe.
