Embedded Linux consulting for custom BSP, Yocto and real-time systems

Building and maintaining embedded Linux solutions requires more than just code—it demands a reproducible, community-friendly workflow and precise performance tuning. With over 15 years in low-level driver and BSP development across ARM, m68k, PowerPC and x86, I deliver:

• Custom, reproducible builds using Yocto Project or Buildroot

• Upstream contributions to minimize your long-term maintenance

• Profiling & tuning for maximum throughput and hard real-time deadlines

Whether you’re starting a new board bring-up or chasing down that last microsecond of latency, let’s work together.

Unlike general-purpose distributions, a tailored Board Support Package contains only what your hardware needs—nothing more, nothing less. This leads to:

• Smaller images and faster boots

• Predictable security updates via long-term supported kernels

• Clear control over drivers, kernel config and device-trees

• Yocto Project & Kas integration
  Simplify complex multi-layer builds with Kas YAML configs, mirroring the workflow you know from your custom distributions.

• Buildroot for rapid proof-of-concept
  When turnaround is critical, Buildroot’s single makefile interface can bootstrap your BSP in minutes.

• Upstreaming & kernel contributions
  I manage patches, device-tree bindings and driver code submitted upstream—so you benefit from community-tested kernels.

• Validation & regression testing
  Automated test suites, CI integration and hardware-in-the-loop checks ensure each release boots reliably on every board revision.

Whether it’s your first Yocto build or you’re optimizing a legacy BSP, I’m here to guide every step:

1. Initial consultation to define scope and deliverables

2. Proof-of-concept to validate approach on your hardware

3. Full implementation with documentation and training

4. Ongoing support via upstream patches and performance audits
