RTE

Remote industrial application debugging

Industrial applications are very custom. Sometimes it is hard to reproduce environment out of the factory floor. Because of that we are offering the ability to connect RTE which in secure way exposes hardware interface for firmware developer expert who can solve issue for our custom configuration.

We mastered solutions based on:

• coreboot
• U-Boot
• UEFI/edk2
• Embedded Linux
• any other type of application with well defined interface

Platform enabling

There are various situations that may require to work remotely on a platform to enable its support in projects like coreboot, U-Boot, Linux or edk2. When traveling we don't always have the facility to perform various tests. Sometimes enabling happen in early stage of production when number of available devices is not sufficient to serve for all of the developers. RTE gives you environment that can be shared and has low level access to peripherals so any hang can be recovered by reflashing or power cycle.

Compatibility testing

It may happen that our device has to support set of peripherals that came from various off-shore vendors. Those peripherals may have different behavior. It happens a lot that we want to make sure that the one we choose will work correctly over a long period of time. Performing thousands of power state cycles or hot plug events is problematic. We solve that by using RTE.

Performance optimization

Measuring of performance data takes time and requires good framework for execution and gathering data. This problem was already resolved by projects like Phoronix Test Suite. RTE can deploy and schedule almost any testing framework as well as make sure that the results are correctly saved on dedicated storage.
