Does Linuxptp support IEEE802.1AS 2020 standard? - linux

Could anyone please tell me if the linuxptp is planning to release IEEE802.1AS-2020 support for linuxptp stack
Is there any plan/timeline for this release?
If already released can anyone please provide me the information about the same
or is there any opensource ptp stack which support IEEE802.1AS-2020 support?
Regards,
Sunil Kumar

There is no plan for supporting IEEE802.1AS-2020 by LinuxPTP maintainers and There is an Alternative for linuxptp which has IEEE802.1AS-2020 support it is provided by Company called Excelfore.
Currently, NXP's GenAVB_TSN support IEEE802.1AS-2020
https://github.com/NXP/GenAVB_TSN

Here's a link to "TSN Documentation Project for Linux*"
Describing:
Linux PTP also supports the Automotive Profile. To run ptp4l in that mode, the command-line is the same as presented in Synchronizing the PHC but with a different configuration file.

SELinux for embedded systems

Does someone have experiences mentioned the use of SELinux in embedded systems like Yokto?
My current project got a board support package without any SELinux stuff. The only thing i am able
to use is the default SELinux Kernel feature. So i have no predefined policies nor userspace tools.
I compiled the Linux Kernel with SELinux support enabled and set SELINUXTYPE=targeted in /etc/selinux/config.
The system needs to run only a single policy that controls a little number of services in the targeted way but leaves the other services untouched.
I have no experience using SELinux without predefined policies or build system for policies like Fedora.
So i need to compile the policy, put the binary in the board support package and burn it on a SD-card.
There is no serious information about that out there so i bought the SELinux Cookbook by Sven Vermeulen but it lacks also in terms of using SELinux on embedded systems.
It would rather be lovely if someone have experiences using a similar system or has some websites or books with good information to advise.
Thank you!
have you tried adding the metalayer for the reference policy and then starting from there ?

How to detect a USB connection in linux/Qt

i am extremely new to both qt and linux , can u please tell me a way how to detect a usb device connection and disconnection using qt in linux platform .
any help , doccuments, urls/sites where i can get the basic information (in detail would be even better) is appriciated.
please help
thanks in advance,

If you have a version available on your platform (most Linux platforms do), you can look into using DBus for notifications of things like that, and Qt has DBus support built-in via a variety of classes.
since you are already working with Qt in a Linux environment, using KDE4 libraries should be easy to understand because they are built on top of Qt and follow similar design principles. With KDE4, you have access to the Solid library for managing system hardware information. This tutorial can help you to get introduced.

which linux to use for embedded-linux-qt 4 development?

I want to start development using qt-embedded on my embedded device project. Can you tell me which linux should I use on my computer for development. Well, It should have VMWARE-tools support ( Fedora Core 11 does not have it ).
Thanks, Sunny.
I got a whole dedicated website for this issue (crosscompile.org) ;-)
Anyway, we use ubuntu and at http://www.crosscompile.org/static/pages/crosstool.html you can see the toolchain building process
Hope it helps you.

Rich User Interface on Embedded Linux Device

I'm designing a user interface for a large touchscreen device running Linux. What would be the best toolkit/developer kit/SDK to use? The only requirement is that its able to run on a semi-low performace device, and that there is a Linux version.
Nice-to-haves would be build in support for effects/animations and a modern look-and-feel, but they are not necessary.
I'm looking at Adobe Flex/AIR already, but I'm not sure if the device will meet the minimum specs.
Try QTopia (http://trolltech.com/products/qtopia)
It's from the same stable as the popular Qt desktop toolkit.
I agree with Mopoke, QTopia is what you want.
It has support from some graphics hardware (2d and 3d), and can also use the kernel framebuffer device if that's all you need.
It's based on Qt, a very well-designed object-oriented GUI framework
It's available for both open-source and commercial projects, although closed-source projects need to pay a license fee.
You should check out whatever tool-kits are used for the Chumby. It's a completely open-source Linux device (open schematic, open source software, etc) with a very rich user-interface (color touch-screen, builtin wifi, USB ports, etc). I believe it's user-submitted "applications" are Adobe Flex/Flash based but there are a variety of open "hacks" including a port of Quake that can be easily downloaded and run.
You can try Disko.
Check out Clutter.
QTopia is indeed a good option; others are DirectFB, and of course X11 generally running Matchbox.
CodeTyphon can let you easily code, visually design and cross compile GUI touch screen applications for embedded linux.
