RTEMS' design provides performance and -capabilities are comparable to those of the best commercial executives. -The directive execution times and other critical performance measures such -as interrupt latency are best of class. RTEMS was developed by On-Line -Applications Research Corporation (OAR) under contract to the U.S. Army -Missile Command. - - -RTEMS includes support for multiple APIs. Currently RTEMS supports a -POSIX threads API, and an RTEID based API which is similar to pSOS+. -RTEMS includes a number of advanced real-time features including optional -rate monotonic scheduling support, binary semapahores with priority -inheritance, and watchdog timer functions. - -RTEMS includes a port of the FreeBSD TCP/IP stack that has high -performance on very modest hardware. A remote debug server is supported -on some targets that allows debugging across the network. - -RTEMS provides a rich run-time environment with a reentrant C library, -POSIX 1003.1b support, and file system support. It also includes optional -debug aids like stack overflow and heap integrity checking. - -RTEMS is built using GNU autoconf and can be built on any host supporting -the GNU tools including Linux, FreeBSD, NetBSD, Solaris, and MS-Windows to -name but a few. The current RTEMS release supports a the following CPU -families: - - Motorola m680x0, m683xx, and ColdFire - Motorola and IBM PowerPC (4xx, 6xx, 7xx, and 8xx) - Hitachi SH-1 - Intel i386, i486, Pentium, and i960 - SPARC - MIPS - HP PA-RISC - AMD A29K - -There are over 35 Board Support Packages included with RTEMS including -BSPs for the SPARC and PowerPC simulators included with gdb. There are -numerous BSPs for CPUs targetting the embedded market such as the Motorola -m683xx and mpc8xx series which support the on-CPU peripherals. - -WWW: - -@uref{http://www.OARcorp.com} - -E-mail: - -@code{rtems-info@@OARcorp.com} - |
