Automotive Linux Summit & Open Source Summit Japan 2018

While AGL started as "IVI only", today the industry is asking for more: Cluster, Telematics, etc. Many of those new profiles requires “Real Time” capabilities. Everyone understand that a cluster should not slow down because the navigation is recomputing a route, that rear-camera should start before the radio, or that emergency icon should not stop working because the audio subsystem crashes.

The talk proposes to explore potential routes on how AGL could address “Real Time” constrains and support more critical automotive use-cases. First it explains how AGL application framework may leverage standard Linux features as “RT-preempt” to isolate tasks and grant hard priorities. Then it explores how AGL could link with the world of “micro-controller”, describing the contains for a native AGL “binding” to run on a mini-kernel as Zephyr or others equivalent minimalist operating systems.
