QP/C ported to OSEK/VDX

The QP/C framework has been ported to ERIKA Enterprise OSEK/VDX RTOS.
ERIKA is an open-source OSEK/VDX kernel started in year 2000 mainly used in automotive.

ERIKA Enterprise in its architecture is very similar to the single stack QK kernel implementation. The concepts of the FP (Fixed Priority) conformance class implementation in OSEK/VDX are really the same (run to completion, no blocking, single stack, ...). Also, ERIKA is an OSEK/VDX kernel, which makes it interesting for the Automotive Market. It has in fact been chosen by a few Tier 1, including Magneti Marelli for Powertrain controls.

The porting work has been done by Gianluca Franchino. Details about the QP/C port, demo applications, and QM usage are available at:
