Как один баг чуть не убил марсоход за $400 млн, и почему везде важна конфигурация

3 января 2004 года марсоход «Спирит» коснулся поверхности Марса в кратере Гусева. Двадцать один день спустя он перестал отвечать на команды, ушёл в бутлуп и чуть не погиб от своей же операционки. О том, почему инженерам JPL этот инцидент до сих пор снится в кошмарах, как NASA дважды чуть не потеряло марсоходы из-за одной и той же ОС и почему везде важна правильная конфигурация — в статье.

@mhoye Granted, find anyone but Wind River Systems' and their VxWorks that would actually offer any explicit warranties…

  • Red Hat (used to?) offer Insirance against software errors and subsequent damages as part of their biggest subscription tiers.
    • Not shure if they still do…

If businesses and consumers weren't gullibe to accept that shit, Microsoft would've been sued into insolvency due to damages and downtime annually…

  • The Problem is that almost everyone seemed to have accepted that shite and is now rolling with it.
  • Also any liability would only be leveraged as a weapon against FLOSS, not as a means to hold CCSS vendors accountable!
    • Similarly how [mostly Tech-Illiterate] Cyberfascists will always leverage their shite against Open Source and Communities, never against Corporations!

@voided I'm intrigued - I did real-time multicast on #vxWorks using Ethernet MAC directly years ago.

AMD Embedded+ mini-ITX Board features Ryzen AI Embedded P132 CPU, Versal AI Edge Gen2 VE3558 SoC FPGA

AMD Embedded+ mini-ITX Board features Ryzen AI Embedded P132 CPU, Versal AI Edge Gen2 VE3558 SoC FPGA

At CES 2026, Sapphire Technology introduced the EDGE+VPR-7P132, an "AMD Embedded+" Mini-ITX motherboard built around AMD's newly announced Ryzen AI Embedded P100 series of SoCs, namely the hexa-core Ryzen P132 (V4526iX) CPU, and an AMD Versal AI Edge Gen 2 VE3558 SoC FPGA, which features octa-core Arm Cortex-A78AE + ten Cortex-R52 real-time cores beyond FPGA fabric. It's the first AMD Ryzen AI Embedded motherboard we've seen. It represents a massive update from last year’s Edge+ VPR-5050 motherboard, which relied on Zen 2-based Ryzen Embedded V2000 series and first-generation Versal silicon. The new VPR-7P132 skips multiple generations, jumping straight to Zen 5 CPU cores and RDNA 3.5 graphics, with an upgraded Versal Gen 2 adaptive Edge AI SoC for real-time inference, along with faster LPDDR5 (4266MHz) memory and 40 Gbps USB4 connectivity.

@estherschindler I worked on the MIPS, PowerPC, and ARM architecture layers and BSPs for #VxWorks at #WindRiverSystems back from 1999‐2004, and then moved on to their embedded Linux kernel and BSPs, so if it is a general question, I might be able to help a little.... haven't kept up with it since then though.

Are there any active #VxWorks online communities? Where do those developers hang out? I have questions for them.

Anyone here knowledgeable about #VxWorks and #VxWin?

Please boost.

#VxWorks, a real-time operating system (RTOS) by Wind River, has been in development since 1980s. It is used in deterministic, real-time and safety-critical applications. Many well-known modern aircraft are running VxWorks on board. VxWorks has been heavily influenced by #Unix
