The objective of this project is to be able to build Tizen IVI stack using the Yocto tools in a fashion that is compatible with the current development workflow that is based on OBS/GBS. An early feasibility study has already been conducted, the work is in progress but there is still work to be done. This wiki page describes the current state of affair: https://wiki.tizen.org/wiki/Tizen_on_yocto. The development is done on Tizen Gerrit and all the code is updated directly there: https://review.tizen.org/gerrit/#/admin/projects/scm/bb/meta-tizen.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                               | The current OBS+GBS based build system is cumbersome to use. Organizations who do not wish to learn and set up the required OBS infra for full builds are not able to perform full AGL builds with GBS only (see https://bugs.tizen.org/jira/browse/DEVT-165). GBS was never designed to manage full dependency chains, it is designed to perform only individual package builds, so this is not likely to be fully fixed in the context of GBS.                                                | Reaktor \\ Intel Corporation      | Juha-Matti Liukkonen \\ Dominique Le Foll                                                       | This project enables AGL developers to build the full system from source (for x86 and arm), without the need to learn or set up OBS infrastructure.

As a first step, we work with Tizen project to add ARM support for newly announced “Tizen common” code base. It would be shared common ground also for AGL project. Once AGL low-level components adequately defined, we will fill the gap if any.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                               | Due to unit cost, OEMs aiming to productize AGL on volume market models need to have ARM based IVI platforms available as option to x86. Currently Tizen IVI development takes place almost completely on x86, although the underlying Tizen platform supports also ARM. Tier-1s have clearly stated that they do not wish to use multiple platforms (for high-end / volume market), which means that as long as AGL is limited to high-end x86, its adaptation for commercial use is limited. \\ Current AGL assets rely on Tizen IVI (kernel, driver and framework), and some part of Tizen IVI is designed for Intel CPU/Graphics architecture. To add ARM support, we need to migrate Tizen-common code base as it already includes architecture agnostic porting layer. In AGL, we will validate all application on top of R-Car environment. | Reaktor \\ Renesas                          | Juha-Matti Liukkonen  \\ Hisao Munakata                                                                          | This project improves the commercial feasibility of using AGL in real vehicles. \\ [RJS 2014-08-14 Merged 34 into this and removed 34.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                 |                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                               |

It should contain attractive feature for IVI system like fastboot and/or quick rear view camera startup feature. We will provide an open platform (low-cost reference board + fully open software) so that anyone can play with AGL code and study it to develop a real product. Renesas can work with AGL member companies to bring up R-Car M2 based AGL demonstrator environment.| Many open questions from Tier-1s relate to integration of native navigation engine to HTML5 user interface, integration of voice recognition, integration of mobile connectivity, performance and memory use of HTML5, and so on. These issues cannot be measured or known with certainty until realistic reference implementations exist. JLR has been doing great work in advancing the AGL stack to provide measurable implementations of advanced use cases. \\ AGL is designed for IVI and other automotive systems that contain some specific demands. Therefore, it is not easy to try on regular PC environment to fully validate supported features.

Support A15/A50 SoCs - TI J6, Renesas Car-M2, Qualcomm, Freescale i.MX 8 \\ The ability to consolidate workloads in automotive presents a very attractive value-proposition, but it raises many questions and concerns at the same time. Virtualization is seen as a key technology enabler that can address many of these considerations. What XenGT specifically brings to the table is a type-I hypervisor that offers a very efficient mechanism for sharing the GPU between virtual machine. This is a key requirement to be able to run the instrument cluster and in-vehicle infotainment systems as two distinct virtual machine for example.                                                                                                     | Type 1 Hypervisor for Cortex A15/A50 SoCs based IVI systems.

This project proposes to study these aspects in the context of automotive and identify gaps and/or propose solutions to address any shortcomings.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                     |                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                 | Intel Corporation                 | Geoffrey Van Cutsem                                                                             | Set of recommendations and tools to facilitate the adoption of flash-based memory devices.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                       | GENIVI has a long running project in this area - Persistency - a code base exists too.
