Description

This Guide describes the features and use of Wind River Multi-OS Interprocess Communication (MIPC) 2.0. MIPC 2.0 provides socket-oriented communication between applications in the following contexts:

  • A multicore environment in which VxWorks applications run on nodes configured for asymmetric multiprocessing (AMP) (see the VxWorks Kernel Programmer's Guide: Overview of VxWorks AMP).
  • A Wind River Hypervisor environment in which applications run under guest operating systems, whether Linux or VxWorks. (For explanations of the terminology in this paragraph, see Hypervisor-Specific Terminology on page 3. For information on Wind River Hypervisor, see the Wind River Hypervisor User's Guide.)
  • A multicore environment in which applications run on multiple CPUs under a single VxWorks operating system (SMP); For information on SMP, see the VxWorks Kernel Programmer's Guide: VxWorks SMP).
  • A uniprocessor environment for communication between local processes.

MIPC 2.0 supports VxWorks and Linux kernel applications and Linux user-space applications. The current release does not support MIPC user-space (RTP) applications for VxWorks.
