Subject: [ANNOUNCE] Sound Open Firmware
Date: Wed, 19 Oct 2016 11:25:05 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1476872705.11707.20.camel@loki> (raw)
Sound Open Firmware is an open source, platform/architecture independent
audio firmware and SDK intended for the Linux and open source
communities.
The intention of SOF is to provide an open audio firmware infrastructure
and SDK with the following features :-
o Optimised for the Linux kernel and userspace.
o Provide features not found in proprietary firmwares.
o Allow easier integration with audio hardware.
o Foster innovation in userspace to support audio processing features.
o Fully open source firmware and SDK.
SOF currently supports the xtensa audio DSP architecture found in many
modern devices. Platform support currently consists of the Intel
Baytrail and Cherrytrail platforms (e.g. devices like the Minnowboard
Max, UP board, Asus T100, etc).
The firmware is modular and abstracts the architecture/platform layers
like the Linux kernel, so can be ported to other DSP architectures or
target platforms.
The SDK provides a compiler, emulator and image builder tools. No other
tools are needed to build and run the firmware.
