Packages for Embedded Development

Fedora is used for all Embedded Development activities/workflows (cross-tools, alternate libc, RT, romfs, root flash, small footprint targets, etc.) that target the full spectrum of system platform-OS-application combinations:

  • Can target systems able to run Linux (including rpm-managed systems),
  • Can target systems that run other kernels, microkernels, RT kernels, hypervisors, or
  • Can target systems that run only non-kernel core code.

Embedded targets that run (at least some portion of) Fedora include x86, x86_64, Blackfin, ARM and others.

Fedora includes support for developing non-Linux embedded applications targeted at the Microchip PIC, a common embedded microcontroller, and the Atmel AVR. There is also limited support for other parts. Continue reading Packages For Embedded Development
