Investment

₩6,300,000

Platform

NuttX

Scope

We profile cache line sharing, DMA coherence pitfalls, and MPU region overlaps, then deliver a patch-ready checklist.

Included analyses

  • MPU region map with overlap scan
  • DMA descriptor alignment audit
  • Write-back vs write-through decision tree
  • Benchmark harness for memcpy hotspots

Outcomes you can publish internally

  1. Alignment patch list
  2. MPU config diff
  3. Benchmark notebook

FAQ

Cortex-A scope?

Limited to MCU-class MPUs unless separately agreed.

Compiler versions?

We pin to the toolchain you ship; mismatches are flagged early.

Known limitation?

We cannot reverse engineer closed DMA engines without vendor support.

Experience notes

“DDR alignment and cache hygiene sprint clarified our DMA double-buffer mistake.”
