BOARD SUPPORT PACKAGE DEVELOPMENT

BOARD SUPPORT PACKAGE DEVELOPMENT

In embedded systems, a board support package (BSP) is the layer of software containing hardware-specific drivers and other routines that allow a particular operating system (traditionally a real-time operating system, or RTOS) to function in a particular hardware environment (a computer or CPU card), integrated with the RTOS itself.

Third-party hardware developers who wish to support a particular RTOS must create a BSP that allows that RTOS to run on their platform. In most cases the RTOS image and license, the BSP containing it, and the hardware are bundled together by the hardware vendor.

BSPs are typically customizable, allowing the user to specify which drivers and routines should be included in the build based on their selection of hardware and software options. For instance, a particular single-board computer might be paired with any of several graphics cards; in that case the BSP might include a driver for each graphics card supported; when building the BSP image the user would specify which graphics driver to include based on their choice of hardware.

Some suppliers also provide a root file system, a toolchain for building programs to run on the embedded system, and utilities to configure the device (while running) along with the BSP. Many RTOS providers provide template BSP’s, developer assistance, and test suites to aid BSP developers in bringing up the RTOS on a new hardware platform.
