SLTS Kernel and Base-Layer Development in the Civil Infrastructure Platform

Explore the development of super long-term supported (SLTS) open source "base layer" for industrial grade software in this 56-minute conference talk by Yoshitake Kobayashi from Toshiba. Delve into the Civil Infrastructure Platform's (CIP) efforts in creating an SLTS kernel, focusing on Linux kernel v4.4 as the first version. Learn about the current development status, security fixes, and backported features. Discover the kernel development policy and the functionality that has been integrated. Gain insights into the testing environment and framework being developed to ensure reliability before implementation in real products. Understand how CIP collaborates with existing projects like KernelCI and Fuego to avoid duplication of efforts. Examine the future roadmap for SLTS kernel and base-layer development, and benefit from Kobayashi's expertise in embedded Linux, operating systems, distributed systems, and dynamically reconfigurable systems.
