Abstract

The employment of a real-time operating system (RTOS) in an embedded control systems is often an all-or-nothing decision: While the RTOS-abstractions provide for easier software composition and development, the price in terms of event latencies and memory costs are high. Especially in HW/SW codesign settings, system developers try to avoid the employment of a full-blown RTOS as far as possible. In OSEK-V, we mitigate this trade-off by a very aggressive tailoring of the concrete RTOS instance into the hardware. Instead of implementing generic OS component's as custom hardware devices, we capture the actually possible application-kernel interactions as a finite-state machine and integrate the tailored RTOS semantics directly into the processor pipeline. In our experimental results with an OSEK-based implementation of a quadrotor flight controller into the Rocket/RISC-V softcore, we thereby can significantly reduce event latencies, interrupt lock times, and memory footprint at moderate costs in terms of FPGA resources.
