Hello,
I am wondering whether there has been any effort of bringing up the Hailo 8 on a real time operating system like QNX. Do you think it’s possible to port the current driver?
Hi @RPAnimation,
It should be very much possible to port the driver (and library) to real-time OS. In a general, we did analysis in the past for QNX, and there was no obstacle that we’ve identified.
So far, we haven’t had the need to go on with a bring up for QNX.
Thank you for the reply @Nadav,
The reason I am asking is that my current project will have to undergo certification that requires an RTOS. Our current choice is QNX because of a mature PCIe driver.
Let’s say I would like to make an effort to port a proof of concept, bare-bones version of the driver + library. From which file should I start my analysis of the driver? Are there any specification documents for the Hailo coprocessors that would be helpful during that effort? Is there a possibility to reach out to someone from the driver team that can give me some pointers on where to start?
This is the hailo-drivers GitHub:

library:
