Known issues

Reference Issue Workaround
2909310 On Intel Elkhart Lake CRB boards, when you slay and restart the devc-serpci driver with the PSE UART Controller #0 on J4J1 HSUART0 port, the device would not work properly again. Power off and power on to reset the target. Or use the SIO UART Controller #2 on J1H1 DEBUG_uUSB port.
2878349New symbol On a NUC7CJYH platform an invalid IRQ assignment to the RTL8167 PCIe-server can result in a ping failure with "No route to host" error. This applies for Gemini, Alder, and Raptor Lake. To use the network driver on NUC7CJYH, pci_cap-0x11.so and pci_cap-0x05.so modules should not be blacklisted at the same time.

Licensing information

The QNX SDP licensing, packaging, and fulfillment model from the previous release has been carried forward to this release. That is, QNX SDP will be available in the QNX Download Center and QNX Software Center as a new product baseline. Additionally, the license agreements will include a few enhancements for clarifications but otherwise will remain unchanged.

Getting started with this BSP

We recommend that you read the Building Embedded Systems guide, which contains common information about working with all BSPs. This guide is available on the QNX Software Development Platform 8.0 documentation website.

Note:

To ensure that you pick up the same components from your development environment, we recommend that you rebuild the IFS image on your host system.

This BSP includes prebuilt IFS images to quickly get you up-and-running; however, these images might not have the same components as your development environment.
