<div dir="ltr">Thank you for the information. I've been doing some research into the CAN support and I think that it would definitely be a project that I would be interested in. I am just a little curious though if there would be any available mentors for this project, and if so would I have the green light to start working on the first draft of the project? <br><div>Thanks again</div></div><br><div class="gmail_quote"><div dir="ltr" class="gmail_attr">On Mon, Mar 9, 2020 at 11:37 AM Gedare Bloom <<a href="mailto:gedare@rtems.org">gedare@rtems.org</a>> wrote:<br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0px 0px 0px 0.8ex;border-left:1px solid rgb(204,204,204);padding-left:1ex">Hi John,<br>
<br>
Thanks. Regarding BeagleBone Black (BBB) you should demonstrate that<br>
you can run RTEMS on the BBB during your proposal prep phase. You will<br>
need to dig to find out what remains to be done in this space. That<br>
said, there is a student with a proposal to advance Flattened Device<br>
Tree support so you would want to avoid that area. It's not clear to<br>
me what else remains to be done that is sufficiently interesting. I'd<br>
like to see if we can support the BBB with RTEMS "legacy" network<br>
stack and lwIP, then it could be a handy board for us as a project to<br>
use to test the networking infrastructure. This is related to<br>
<a href="https://devel.rtems.org/ticket/3850" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">https://devel.rtems.org/ticket/3850</a><br>
<br>
BBB is also a candidate for Controller Area Network (CAN) support (pun<br>
intended). Although we don't have active open project descriptions,<br>
that could be an area for expanding peripheral and library support. It<br>
does require some additional hardware to actually do any testing<br>
though. One can start with Qemu-emulated CAN support, which was added<br>
by a previous RTEMS GSoC student project.<br>
