How I Survived a SoC with a Terrible Linux BSP

Explore the challenges and solutions of working with subpar System-on-Chip (SoC) board support packages (BSPs) in this insightful conference talk. Discover how to navigate through outdated kernels, broken drivers, missing bootloaders, and poor-quality code while developing embedded Linux systems. Learn about the impact of ineffective vendor BSPs on product quality and explore strategies for overcoming these obstacles. Gain valuable insights into improving the situation for both developers and vendors, drawing from the speaker's extensive experience in designing embedded Linux products from the ground up. Benefit from practical advice on hacking bootloaders, kernels, device drivers, and build systems to create successful embedded Linux solutions despite challenging BSP environments.
