It'd be interesting to see a setup where a Linux-capable SoC would run the Arduino application on a isolated CPU core with no interrupts handled, so you'd still have real-time guarantee for the Arduino app

Microchip PolarFire boards (and PIC64 chips, which is basically just the CPU part of PolarFire without the FPGA fabric) can do that with asymmetric multiprocessing: https://www.microchip.com/en-us/products/fpgas-and-plds/syst...

It runs the Arduino app on a separate mcu stm32l4 I think. So you have the realtime as well, but what you describe is already possible with the pi and asymmetric multiprocessing using openamp and zephyr.

I remember reading about this in some blogs so here is one I found that describes just that: https://telmomoya.blogspot.com/2016/10/asymmetric-multi-proc...
