    The Boot Optimization Guide describes techniques you can use to reduce the time from your board's initial power on until you have a fully functional QNX system running on the board.
  - Building Embedded Systems
    The Building Embedded Systems guide is intended for developers who are developing or building BSPs for QNX OS embedded systems.
  - Customizing a BSP
    While QNX provides Board Support Packages (BSPs) for many common platforms and their individual variants, in some cases, you need a BSP for a board that QNX does not provide. If this is the case, you can modify a QNX BSP or develop your own.

Command line for PCI connector (pci-connector)

QNX SDP8.0PCI Server User's GuideAPIConfiguration

Connect PCI multiplexer APIs to the PCI server

Syntax:

pci-connector [-n name] [-s instance] [-v]

Runs on:

QNX OS

Options:

-n name: The name of the resource manager connector.
-s instance: The pci-server instance to connect to.
-v: Be verbose.

Description:

The PCI connector (pci-connector) is a resource manager process that mediates communication between a client and a pci-server instance.

Each client can have one or more connectors. You can attach multiple connectors from different clients to the same PCI server simultaneously. The PCI connectors have a:

N:1 relationship with a PCI server, where N is the number of PCI connectors.
1:1 relationship with a client via direct connect.
1:M relationship with clients in a multiplexed scenario.
