 .. zephyr:board-supported-runners::
 
+There are multiple methods to program and run Zephyr on the A55 core:
+
+Option 1. Boot Zephyr by Using SPSDK Runner
+===========================================
+
+SPSDK runner leverages SPSDK tools (https://spsdk.readthedocs.io), it builds an
+bootable flash image ``flash.bin`` which includes all necessary firmware components,
+such as ELE+V2X firmware, System Manager, TCM OEI, TF-A images etc. Using west flash
+command will download the boot image flash.bin to DDR memory, SD card or eMMC flash.
+By using flash.bin, as no U-Boot image is available, so TF-A will boot up Zephyr on
+the first Cortex-A55 Core directly.
+
+In order to use SPSDK runner, it requires fetching binary blobs, which can be achieved
+by running the following command:
+
+.. code-block:: console
+
+   west blobs fetch hal_nxp
+
+.. note::
+
+   It is recommended running the command above after :file:`west update`.
+
+SPSDK runner is enabled by configure item :kconfig:option:`CONFIG_BOARD_NXP_SPSDK_IMAGE`, currently
+it is not enabled by default for i.MX95 EVK board, so use this configuration to enable
+it, for example, with the :zephyr:code-sample:`synchronization` sample:
+
+.. zephyr-app-commands::
+   :zephyr-app: samples/synchronization
+   :host-os: unix
+   :board: imx95_evk/mimx9596/a55
+   :goals: build
+   :gen-args: -DCONFIG_BOARD_NXP_SPSDK_IMAGE=y
+
+If :kconfig:option:`CONFIG_BOARD_NXP_SPSDK_IMAGE` is available and enabled for the board variant,
+``flash.bin`` will be built automatically. The programming could be through below commands.
+Before that, switch SW7[1:4] should be configured to 0b1001 for usb download mode
+to boot, and USB1 and DBG ports should be connected to PC. There are 4 serial ports
+enumerated (115200 8n1), and we use the first for M7 and the fourth for M33 System Manager.
+(The flasher is spsdk which already installed via scripts/requirements.txt.
+On linux host, usb device permission should be configured per Installation Guide
+of https://spsdk.readthedocs.io)
+
+.. code-block:: none
+
+   # load and run without programming. for next flashing, execute 'reset' in the
+   # fourth serail port
+   $ west flash
+
+   # program to SD card, then set SW7[1:4]=0b1011 to reboot
+   $ west flash --bootdevice sd
+
+   # program to emmc card, then set SW7[1:4]=0b1010 to reboot
+   $ west flash --bootdevice=emmc
+
+
+Option 2. Boot Zephyr by Using U-Boot Command
+=============================================
+
+U-Boot "go" command can be used to start Zephyr on A55 core0 and U-Boot "cpu" command
+is used to load and kick Zephyr to the other A55 secondary Cores. Currently "cpu" command
+is supported in : `Real-Time Edge U-Boot`_ (use the branch "uboot_vxxxx.xx-y.y.y,
+xxxx.xx is uboot version and y.y.y is Real-Time Edge Software version, for example
+"uboot_v2023.04-2.9.0" branch is U-Boot v2023.04 used in Real-Time Edge Software release
+v2.9.0), and pre-build images and user guide can be found at `Real-Time Edge Software`_.

+.. _Real-Time Edge Software:
+   https://www.nxp.com/rtedge
+
+Step 1: Download Zephyr Image into DDR Memory
+---------------------------------------------
+
+Firstly need to download Zephyr binary image into DDR memory, it can use tftp:
+
+.. code-block:: console
+
+    tftp 0xd0000000 zephyr.bin
+
+Or copy the Zephyr image ``zephyr.bin`` SD card and plug the card into the board, for example
+if copy to the FAT partition of the SD card, use the following U-Boot command to load the image
+into DDR memory (assuming the SD card is dev 1, fat partition ID is 1, they could be changed
+based on actual setup):
+
+.. code-block:: console
+
+    fatload mmc 1:1 0xd0000000 zephyr.bin;
+
+Step 2: Boot Zephyr
+-------------------

 Use this configuration to run basic Zephyr applications and kernel tests,
 for example, with the :zephyr:code-sample:`synchronization` sample:
