BeagleLogic Update 0 – 18th May 2014

The introduction video to BeagleLogic is now released! Check it out here:

The slides are available here.

This week I spent time understanding the remoteproc implementation and UIO implementations of the kernel drivers of the PRU in the kernel source tree.

One of the important decisions this week was the confirmation of UIO implementation for the PRU drivers. Although a remoteproc implementation is a better approach, the initial implementation of the core would be in UIO, and as the remoteproc infrastructure improves, BeagleLogic will eventually migrate. Since this would be a core change, it would have minimal impact on the functionality.

All set for May 19th when the coding period commences.

Next update coming up on 21st May.
