Comment by wmf 1 month ago QNX is running on bare metal in a lot of cars. 7 comments wmf Reply cbsks 1 month ago It’s also running virtualized in a lot of cars! Although I’ve seen more and more US car companies switching from QNX to Linux. Chinese car companies I’ve worked with all use Linux instead of QNX, so perhaps that is the future. m132 1 month ago Out of curiosity, do you mean Linux on bare metal, or Linux on top of QVM?The latter is actually a common setup, used by Mercedes-Benz and Hangsheng if I'm not mistaken. cbsks 1 month ago Linux on top of a hypervisor. There are several companies providing hypervisors, including the one I work at, so my experience is biased. xvilka 1 month ago Linux now supports real time too, even mainline. And there are open source RTOSes for smaller chips and critical applications like FreeRTOS. jacquesm 1 month ago QnX is expensive for commercial use, that's most likely the driver for this. speed_spread 1 month ago Bare metal! So, if you just give it enough time, it will run on Rust? xvilka 1 month ago Only if it's exposed to elements.
