1. Is there any free RTOS available which can be ported to ARM 7 and 9 controllers. 2. Can Vxworks be ported to VIA processors?. Sundar.

Hey all, Is there a simulator-type shell of VxWorks that works with windows xp?...I'm thinking something along the lines of like cygwin...I know it's kind of a backwards idea, but I'm just talking in terms of getting used to the dev environment and basic stuff that isn't particularly real-time depedant. I heard of VxSim...has anybody used this? thanks for any insights!

Ladies and/or Gentlemen: I submitted the following questions to Wind River and have not received a response (and I do not expect to). Maybe you know the answers to these questions given below? I would like to know if it is true that the VxWorks tNetTask tasks cannot be reprioritized, rescheduled, or delayed as taskSpawn tasks can be. Please refer to the comment at the top of the page at t...

I am experiencing a very bizarre problem with vxWorks and I am hoping that someone might be able to offer some suggestions on where to start looking to determine the root of the problem. VxWorks is being used on a Synergy Microsystems VME SBC which is PPC based. The problem seems to arise at random times after rebuilding the OS image. For instance, by commenting out a single 'printf' stat...

I need information on how to add USB functinality - reading and writing from a mass storage device (DoK). My board is a PPC based, MPC5220 (freescale) Lite evaluation board, and I'm running on a VxWorks 5.5 version. Any help or a point to where to begin from, would be very helpful.

Dear all, Recently happened to investigate an exception issue due to raising of exceptions from ISRs. I am using ARM based custom processor with vxworks 5.5.I have the following doubt: The vxworks manual states that when ever an exception happens from ISR the system will get rebooted and it will print the reason behind exception on system console. My doubt is where exactly in physical me...

I'm currently attempting to build gcc-3.4.3 for an embedded PPC405/vxWorks platform. I'm building the cross-compiler on a Linux/i686 running the Debian 3.1 distribution with a 2.6.8 kernel. The problem is that I'm compiling --with-headers={vxworks-path-goes-here} and in order for that to work, it needs several compiler switches added everytime it uses the generated compiler to compile lib...

Hi, I'm running VxWorks Os on a MPC 8323 processor. The VxWorks timers are based on the OS ticks (several mili seconds), but I need a way to measure small time intervals of micro seconds.Is there a Real Time clock register to read, or a cotinueosly running counter register to calculate the interval time from it? Thanks Anwar

I am using a PPC750 and vxWorks. I am trying to copy a function outside of the text/data/bss segment into an unused portion of RAM and jump to it. The function to be copied contains no library calls or function calls. The executing function then copies a vxworks image from another location in user defined memory over top of the existing running image and jumps to it. Is this valid? People are...

Dear all, I am just curious to know why almost all commercial popular RTOS like RTLINUX,Vxworks work mainly on Micro processor instead of Microcontrollers? AFAIK,I have seen Vxworks work on Boards like Intel x86,powerpc,ARM and all mentioned processor boards instead of real microcontrollers like 8051,68HC series from motorola and so. Why do RTOS prefer microprocessors as compared to microco...

Anybody have any experience with the Motorola MVME-6100 singleboard computer running vxWorks? I have been porting an application, not written by me, from an older MVME-167 processor to the MVME-6100. It has been a very long hard climb... However I feel the end is near. The application involves shared memory in the A32 space as well as the A16 space. My current dilema is that the softwa...

Hi, I find that the stackpointer is pointing to 'bcopy' at the time of crash of my VxWorks application. This was found by analysing the log file and the Vxworks MAP files. On stack traceback, i find that 'bcopy' is being called by another routine (namely 'A'). I do not find 'bcopy' being called from that routine(namely 'A'). But, i find memcpy inside that routine (namely 'A'). Ques...

Gurus, Till vxworks5.5,windriver guys have been using task based model in flat address mode for application scheduling,but now with vxworks 6.0 windriver is playing with idea of using process model over tasks. My question is what could be rational behind this?AFAIK,there were not much of problems with task models and only advantage of going for process model is enabling memory protection.But...

Hi, I am trying to port a linux(2.6)(posix compliant) software based on ARM9 to VxWorks(6.5)(Posix Compliant) running on ARM9. The software deals with lot of thread(posix) creation and intertask communications. It also deals with shared memory. I am worried that the scheduler of linux and vxworks might be different and hence will have its impact on this porting activitiy. I am eager to k...
