RISC-V Forum: Embedded Technologies

ELISA (Enabling Linux in Safety Applications - https://elisa.tech) is an organization that includes Automotive companies like BMW, Toyota, Suzuki, just to name few of the companies. The goal of ELISA is to enable the usage of Linux in safety critical applications, like Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS) and Autonomous Vehicles (AV). Last year, the ELISA forum have reported on the first usage of Linux in the automotive critical [1]. RISC-V as being an open source ISA is a great candidate for future automotive platform, and therefore ELISA have started to work on RISC-V support. In this talk, we will present the ELISA and the method that have been used to enable open-source SW (like Linux) to achieve safety certification (based on ISO 26262), and discuss the RISC-V timeline for Automotive Linux support.
