AMP Virtio: A New Virtio Transport for AMP Systems - Focus on Zephyr, Linux, and Xen

Explore a conference talk on AMP Virtio, a new Virtio transport for Asymmetric Multiprocessing (AMP) systems, with a focus on Zephyr, Linux, and Xen. Delve into the OpenAMP project's efforts to standardize and simplify AMP systems across automotive, industrial, mobile, and data center markets. Discover the advantages of using Virtio for AMP systems and understand the limitations of existing Virtio transports. Examine the proposed transport solution, including prototype software for Zephyr, Linux, and Xen. Learn about various topologies and use cases for Device and Driver placement, and gain insights into the portability of this solution to other RTOSes and hypervisors. Understand how AMP Virtio can reduce worst-case latency and increase freedom of interference (FFI) in real-time and functionally safe systems.
