Embedded Linux takes on real-time tasks
ELinOS Real-Time combines the feature richness of embedded Linux with the safety and hard-real-time capabilities of Sysgo's PikeOS, a separation microkernel based RTOS.
"Elinos industrial grade Linux is the next milestone in the lasting success of the Elinos product family".
"With Elinos real-time coming up in September and the recently released Elinos v4.1 industrial grade Linux we complete our offer for the demands of the growing Embedded Linux market", says Knut Degen, CEO of Sysgo.
With the release of Elinos v4.1 industrial grade Linux, Codeo and Cognito, Sysgo's application development framework, have been added to the standard Elinos bundle.
Codeo, Sysgo's integrated development environment, already incorporates Cogntio, the embedded target analyser tool.
Thus, Elinos customers are now able to analyse their embedded Linux application's timing behaviour and take a close look to the embedded Linux resource information.
This includes memory utilisation, IRQ behaviour, process tree, available sockets etc Furthermore, the user is enabled to develop embedded applications with a comprehensive development environment dedicated to embedded developers needs.
Elinos v4.1 industrial grade Linux includes kernels 2.6.15 and 2.4.31.
Both kernels are tested and validated on the supported platforms and incorporate all necessary security patches.
Elinos industrial grade Linux explicitly supports the needs of industrial automation customers providing solutions for CAN, CANopen, VME, IPv4/IPv6, EtherCAT, USB 2.0, Wi-Fi and many more.
Xenomai is available as a Linux real-time extension, but for hard-real-time purposes Elinos v4.1 customers can upgrade to Elinos real-time, Sysgo's Posix-compliant hard-real-time solution for Linux.
New BSPs (eg Freescale Lite5200B, MEN PowerQuicc III boards EM3 and EM8, AMD LX 800, Digital-Logic MSM800SEV and MPCV800, Motorola MVME 3100, AMCC 405 Taihu, Atmel AT91RM9200, Teco Tempo 02 and MP-10, MP-11, MP-12 modules) are also included as well as BSPs for virtualisation engines, such as PikeOS (X86, PPC, MIPS), QEMU (x86, PPC, ARM) and VMware (X86).
